Consumer, I’m sensing sarcasm in your response to humanities current predicament. I’d like to offer you 20% your next MEGASiZE combo meal. We offer easy financing options for those less endowed. The stock buybacks must continue, parachutes shall be golden, and the planet will be plundered for profit.

How many monthly payments (and what rate) do I need to make for this MEGASiZE meal?
