    The prices were always gonna be raised, the wage increase is just an easy excuse, if the wage increase is reversed the prices will 100% still be raised and will almost definitely stay there.

        Its not just labor they like to blame. I remember my local McDonald’s raised prices by around 10 cents across the board without giving a reason even though they had gotten a tax cut that year, next year the tax was raised to its previous value and they raised prices again, this time citing the “tax increase”. Corps will ALWAYS find a way to raise prices and blame it on something other than greed.
