How is Red Lobster going under related to authoritarianism?

Everything we don't like is authoritarianism
I mean, I guess you can say "the oligarchs and others making decisions have set our economic system up just so that the vulture capitalists are allowed, no encouraged, to barter with our lives" but it's not really authoritarianism. And part of the packaging is why libertarians think economic injustice isn't a big deal (these cooks and waitresses will just find another job, right?). But it's still a different beast. It's late capitalism. A government ban on seafood buffets? That's authoritarianism.

And this is unrelated to changing to changing their rolls and low quality service? We quit going because the price was fine dining, and the experience was a low quality pub with pasta. Last time I went, wait staff was over taxed and behind on everything, no local beer of any sort, extra crowded, and they had changed their cheddar biscuit recipe to something super dry. All of that for $100 date night. The noodles were ok, I guess.

I only ever went there a single time. I remember it being expensive AF for basically seafood-Applebees. I'm no economist or nothin, but people not being willing to pay top dollar for a mediocre product is a great way to a business to tank...
