@Zeitgeist:
Mickey Dee’s suffering a downturn. zOMG, poor baaaaabies. Maybe people are starting to grok that their “food” isn’t food as much as poison. Or maybe they’re having their lunch eaten by other chains that sell better quality product.

Are all restaurant stocks doing poorly, or just that one? Speaking to NYC, restaurants here are pretty packed and doing well.

@flu – the “welfare” comment was directed to Aecetia’s comment about living off others, not specifically toward market investors 🙂
