As I understand it, mcd had already done so many other cost cutting tactics to increase profits for their masters, the SHAREHOLDERS. The corporate business model demands increases EVERY quarter. This kind of continuous infinite profit growth just doesn’t make sense in real life. They may have exhausted all other options to increase profit for their shareholders beside price increases. They have no one to blame but themselves. They could stand up to their shareholders and not raise prices, but seems like they’re spineless, and now they are pushing up against the edge of what their customers are willing to pay. I don’t know how long they can keep this up.

Growth for the sake of growth is literally cancer.
