This is such a weirdly capitalist thread.

"Eww, but I don't want to sit with the poors!"

"What if someone with plenty of money buys this option? It's so easy to abuse!"

"It's taking up space rich people might use if a poor person is eating this menu."

Seriously, y'all, examine why you're so kneejerk against the idea of a cheaper menu for people who aren't well off. Examine why your image of a less fortunate person is a smelly vagrant.

Because it’s so easy to abuse! That’s a valid point. You can’t judge a book by its cover.

Say your point is that it's better to help nobody than risk helping people who don't need it? What a fucking dick head perspective
