As the American baby boomer population hits retirement age...

I know nothing about how the markups work, so perhaps restaurants still make enough profit off these meals in spite of the discount so that it won't matter, but I'm curious.

65 is still 10 years off for most of them

 

[LeadMagnet]

they all go to dinner between 3:30 and 6:00 anyways, just in time for the working class to showup and spend the real money buying apps and drinks

We should add a 10% senior citizen TAX to make up for the drain they're putting on social security.

Said tax could be removed when I hit retirement age.

Senior citizen's plates have less food on them, kinda like childrens' plates.

Not all seniors are rolling in money and most of them are not living on a shoestring because they were imprudent with their earnings. Life happens, just like shyt, and many are left with little more than SS to live on.

We had enough SS money to pay for them, until bush turned our $5,600,000,000,000 social security surplus into a $10,000,000,000,000 deficit :disgust:

That said, they eat less food, which is why they cost less.

you need to get more educated on the subject, SSA is not in a 10 trillion dollor deficit. and it's never been as high as a 5.6 trillion dollor surplus.

most current available disposition of funds in pdf.

Tell that to the news reporters. So you are calling them clueless idiots?

either they didn't say that and you exagerated (which is fine, I do it all the time, just say so), or they did say that and they are reporting mis-information.

sad with 5.6 trillion dollars, uncle sam could have given everyone a $20,000 tax return 🙁

Oh I was wrong about the $10 trillion deficit, it turns out he spent that much and turned $5.6 trillion dollar surplus to 5.2 trillion deficit.
