Quote:The McDonald hamburger outsells the Outback's hamburger. It doesn't mean it is better, it just means that you need to weigh all of the variables like price and other items that they are offering.


Your narrow assessment of 1 stat illustrates a very limited perspective and knowledge of economics.

I see. Various economic factors like supply and demand simply don't apply to Jacksonville, but are adequate to explain away towns that under perform Jacksonville? Got it.


Of course, none of the talking heads are required to give any complex economic arguments, just guys on message boards...right?


BTW, your McDonald's/Outback analogy proves my point. People are willing to spend more for a superior product. Would you be inclined to spend Outback/Ruth's Chris prices for McDonald's quality food?
