Ronald McDonald Must Die!

And in Tavistock, Devon, U.K., they've killed him:

McDonald's is closing its outlet in a town known for quality food and healthy, local produce.

The fast food chain in Tavistock, Devon, simply wasn't being used enough by locals.

So after seven years struggling to make ends meet in a town that has won many accolades for the quality of its food, McDonald's will finally shut up shop on Saturday.

John Taylor, chairman of Tavistock EatWise campaign, said: "Because of the quality of our local food McDonald's has not been able to compete.

So, in this case, Capitalism worked! McDonalds offered a product that couldn't hack it, and went out of business as a result. A model for communities around the Globe.
