Last I looked, the PPP ratio between US and Russia is about 2.6 or so. So, in constant purchasing power the Russian meal is about 11.90 or so. So, it's a little cheaper. Probably labor being the biggest difference. That's just a guess though.

Jesus fricking Christ, have some confidence in yourself. You type like a chiseled war vet is standing behind you ready to b***h slap you to the cement if you type one wrong thing.
I just slapped the shit out of that little homosexual entirely because of your comment, and I’m about to do it again if he doesn’t stop crying.
Hope you’re happy.

No, you moron. Higher cost of living isn't only a harm. It emerges because the region you're in is producing more value, and the reward is you can net large amounts of money there and take it to a lower cost of living region where your savings will go three times as far.
Someone in the opposite situation in contrast would see their savings reduced to a third of its prior relative value if they took it over to the other country.
The extra money changing hands also funnels into more new developments which further increase the standard of living and production metrics for the region you're in. It's not like some evil banker just takes the difference between Russian costs vs. US costs and then sits on your stolen money doing nothing with it while all else is otherwise kept the same.
>Right, because McDonald’s is generating a plethora of innovation and developments to increase the value of our society.
Yes, that's right, dipshit. Fast food revenue is large part of what Berkshire Hathaway holds and basically everything good in your life is being funded by them directly or indirectly if you look up everything else they're in on.

It’s really that simple. All the mental gymnastics you perform can’t convince me that businesses like McDonald’s frick the customers AND employees to escape accepting the blame for problems they’ve caused to the market.
Frick, if they’d only kept the dollar menu, I too would join you in sucking Ronald’s clown peen but here we are.

You're missing the increase in cost of everything they buy to produce the product. Produce ain't cheap
That's completely normal. The Big Mac® is so expensive only in the USA because the Americans out of patriotic sentiments wish to pay extra to honor Ronald McDonald who is the second most popular character behind Santa Claus and Micey Mouse.
>is this real? those are some ominous names
They would appease both nationalistic Russians and young memers (so the majority of the population). The names of the burgers are just very self aware.
>USA doesn't kiss ass, instead demonstrates its powerful production capabilities and efficient services >Russia puts a blanket over its garbage, trying to trick foreign leaders with lavish meals and expensive accomodations
Lmaoing at ur lyfe
Native speaker here. Left is Katyusha which is a famous ww2 soviet rocket launcher. Middle refers to the T34 tank, also famous from ww2. Right is called Motherland.
I refuse to believe those names are real. Bond villain tier.
Also frick off back to chug with your vatBlack person propaganda

It's some random pop-up joint in Syktyvkar (aka fricking nowhere). That's not their McDonalds replacement, it's some meme place called "Z-Burger" trying to cash in on edgy memes and social media attention.
From what I understand, farming of potatoes has dropped which means it may become a real luxury. When I say they may end up eating fried bread, it's only half a joke.
>Big Mac Meal USA = $12.19
Please show the McDonald’s location that charges this.
Because if it’s even real, it’s cherry-picked as frick. Even airport McDonald’s don’t charge that.
That's cap, and also false equivalence. Better quality, better income, not communist. You pay for the premium of the food. Please also edit a proper American Flag
now post average incomes
>now post average incomes
>getting price gouged is alright because I make marginally more nominal dollars
Why can't burgers into PPP?

Many such cases

You are moronic, though
Russians could only wish they were slav and savvy. Genghis mongolized you in 16th century

Does anyone else take wet alcohol shits in the large soda cups and then throw it in the kids ball pit?
Technically, that's a Royal TS.
Man, I feel uncomfortable if my meal costs more than 5 dollars for every person I'm feeding. I cannot comprehend people who eat McDonald's every day.
would you all kindly take your nationalistic dick measuring contest away from my Peruvian soup making forum?
we are talking bout big macs here, sir
>Fresh, Tasty and That's All!
And not
>Nurem-Burger: Baby, You Can't Taste War Crimes!
Based slavbros
russians aren't slavs, they are bastardized mongols
Big Mac meal is $7.79 near me
That's completely normal. The Big Mac® is so expensive only in the USA because the Americans out of patriotic sentiments wish to pay extra to honor Ronald McDonald who is the second most popular character behind Santa Claus and Micey Mouse.
those are two completely different burgers
it's the new and improved McDonald's, really
menu
what did mcdonalds gain from doing all this?
It willingly lost a gigantic market, that's what.
translated
>facts are propaganda
cry me a river

translated with google translate beyond all recognition
i used yandex like the rest of the civilized world
well it's still a moronic machine translation so whatever
For me, it's the Homeland
>For peace
>For crimea
This is light years beyond freedom fries.
Please rephrase. I can't understand you.

It's real but it's not the menu for the mcdonalds replacement place, it's another place entirely
Putin lost the culture war and is seething so hard
When Russia welcomes Xi Jinping he feeds him caviar pancake, white wine and vodka.
When USA welcomes important people they feed him burger from fast food restaurant and coke.
Which country is civilized? Which country is barbaric?

Check how many ruskies doesn't have a toilet and ask again. Pic kinda related
the leader of a country sharing food he personally enjoys with his guests to be seen and build goodwill

>T-34
It's cheap yet leaves you wanting more, like the burger.
Russians use the same currency as pokemon games?
Russian bros, what do these translate to, I will come to your country and try them.

why does every photo I see of customers eating the food at this place have them just eating a metric frickton of fries
From what I understand, farming of potatoes has dropped which means it may become a real luxury. When I say they may end up eating fried bread, it's only half a joke.
It's an Asian thing. Zoomers in russia LOVE kpop shit so they're just imitating them.
LOL WTF
is this real?
why is Russia so fricking poor? what's it like to live in such an aids-ridden shithole
All of the sins of the Tsar and Soviet lie in the character of the Russian, anon.
Interesting what happens directly after Putin resumed his presidency in 2012. I bet it's because of a israeli USA conspiracy.
That's a quarter pounder with small fries and drink
there's more fries in the Rusdonald's offer if you look at it
Wow Russians love American culture so much they'd rather pretend to have it than not have it lol
Looks super busy
>Big Mac Meal USA = $12.19
and the mc fatties will still wait in a 15 car deep line for this shit while complaining about the price
$5 lunch in Mariott? Unbelievavle
Why are there so many people on this board getting incredibly butthurt the minute something negative is implied about Russia? Genuinely curious.

Sit down and be humble
Bruh here a big mac is like 6 bucks and I live in a shithole
>food is cheaper in poorer countries
WOW
>the more I have to pay for my food the richer I become
theres no way americans are paying that much i thought a big mac there was like 2 bucks
That's cap, and also false equivalence. Better quality, better income, not communist. You pay for the premium of the food. Please also edit a proper American Flag
look everyone, a wild american being publicly ignorant
Lmao. Imagine going back to 2002 and telling yourself that one day a BigMac meal will cost you $12.
Holy shit I remember when asking my dad for $20 would result in him asking wtf I needed 20 whole dollars.
I'd rather pay more money than live in a dictatorship
>the cost of freedom is poverty
Freedom is not well traded for all the gold in the world.
i don't understand what you are trying to say
Jfc
I get paid 6 figs + bonus. I think I can afford a burger...
Nobody is going to trade a burger for figs.
I know this is bait but it's amazing that there are people who'd genuinely fall for this.
Why do you morons keep talking about fast food every single fricking minute. Holy frick make your own food you fricking fat morons.
We have little to live for, besides eating and gaming. Most of us are illiterate and obese.
>make your own food
Get a job so you can afford to use restaurants.
