If you earn so little money, maybe an education would help. You are not smart enough. It is basic economics, as things get more expensive, the less consumers will spend, and look for better value elsewhere. Higher prices put a bigger economy of scale less reachable by competition. McDonald’s is harmed by supply chain, and labor costs, but even more so, for a small business who wants to compete with cheap food. Starting a business and making sure the business survives is harder than established big business that grew mostly in a less costly regulatory environment. Increasing business costs reduces dynamicism, which reduces competition, and increases stagnation.
