No one? I'm sorry but I just think that's unrealistic. People clearly like the food, it's convenient, likely part of a habit or ritual for many people. If people feel like Wendy's, that's where they'll go.

This is a game a lot of people are not going to play, just on principle. It's not about the food, anymore.

It doesn't need to be "no one" to make it clear the experiment in new forms of corporate greed was a failure.

I don't know how much profit you think they're hoping to make from having surge pricing. If they lose 10% of their customers over this that will be a significant loss in overall profit.
