Sigh. I guess this is a good way to think about it.

I think this little Cheng Du eatery got posted here before but worth seeing Wang Gang's review of its food. Basically, it's a very budget-friendly buffet that costs less than $3. Elderly customers over 85 and kids under 4 get to eat for free AND kids between 4 to 10 get a 50% discount. Can tell the boss does it for the community. Always nice to see something like this.

Thumbs up to the boss of this eatery. Must have saved the local residents so much money and time.

£3 for a meal is unheard of in the UK. Thumbs up to the shop owner.

Yup that seems to be the case everywhere. The ones who are in the right positions or professions making more money than before but everyone else either stagnating or making less...
