The plandemic or minimum wage, either way, the .gov shut them down.
Beef sandwich chain Arby's has closed its restaurant on Hollywood's Sunset Boulevard after 55 years of operating under one owner.
The location is no longer listed on Arby's website. Local station KTLA-5 reported that it closed on Saturday.
Since the restaurant opened in January 1969, it has only had one owner: Marilyn Leviton, now 91, per KTLA-5.
"Truth is, I think it was the pandemic that did us in," Leviton told the station. "I really feel we would have closed during the pandemic, except for the federal loans."
Restaurants had to dramatically change their operations during the pandemic and pivot to just offering delivery, collection, and drive-thru as in-restaurant dining was prohibited under waves of lockdowns. Restaurants also had to deal with soaring food and labor costs.
There were other strains on the business, too, Leviton told KTLA-5.
"Arby's is demanding more technical equipment, which we couldn't afford, and I don't think the $20-an-hour wage increase helped either," she said.
California raised its minimum wage for workers at quick-service restaurant chains to $20 an hour in April — 25% more than the state's general minimum wage. The restaurant industry lobbied against the legislation, arguing that it would force them to up prices, lay off staff, and close restaurants.
Arby's did not immediately respond to a request for comment made by Business Insider outside regular working hours.
KTLA-5 reported that when the Arby's location first opened, it was the only fast-food restaurant on Sunset Boulevard with a view of the Hollywood sign.
Speaking about the closure of her restaurant, Leviton said: "I'm awfully sorry that it came to this."
"I think we did a good job for 55 years," she said.

The line on your dollar bill starts out with the truth: "This NOTE..." There is no getting out of debt in this society, the money is totally thin air.
Yeah, people just buy to much ****. Here is one I ran across the other day https://dailyvoice.com/new-jersey/t...by-suicide-raises-staggering-amount-of-money/ I mean this guy should have had money. But they got to raise money for his funeral https://www.gofundme.com/f/supporting-the-zee-family-honoring-bills-legacy?cdn-cache=0 cremations are cheap, look into it. I guess maybe I just don't get it. I don't know. Listening to Amarillo by Morningn by George Strait, there is this line
"I ain't got a dime
But what I've got is mine
I ain't rich
But Lord, I'm free" That kind of sums up my life.

Some people have a lot of excuses for being in debt. The real reason for most is poor decision making. The same reason our nation has the largest deficit in history.
I've always tryied to stay out of debt or at least pay it off as fast as I could. I have been debt free for the past 7 years and I bought a new house in 2018 as well as a nice 2 yo truck and I wrote a check for both. Now with only basic living expenses and bills I have more money to spend than I need and always have a surplus at the end of the month.
US debt, but gave Zelenskyy $200,000,000,000.00 ! Yes, 200 BILLION $$. With a “B” , Billion.
What about our desperate American citizens affected by this current Hurricane ? Hmmm
