Panera Bread’s socialist pay-what-you-want restaurant, Panera Cares, will officially be closing shop on February 15 due to the business model’s unsustainability. No DUH. It doesn’t take a savvy businessman (Or woman) to know that profits keep the doors open.
According to The Daily Wire, while Panera Cares billed itself as a “non-profit†restaurant designed to feed low-income people, the business model was anything but. Rather than create a charitable organization that distributes food to needy families or a discount outlet or even a $1 menu (like every other fast-food restaurant), Panera tried to create a socialist system in which meals were offered at a suggested donation price. That means some people would pay more while others would pay less based on what they felt like or could afford.

The result: some people paid their fair share while others enjoyed a “free lunch.â€
