    That’s just greed. They’re doing that already. Prices right now are crazy high, BUT guess what else is? PROFITS. Record profits everywhere. That shit should be illegal.

      Are the record profits still record after being adjusted for inflation?

      Money is worth less now than it was this time last year.

      Let’s say a profit of $1000 last year is equivalent to a profit of $1200 this year.

      Have you made $200 more this year? Well, technically yes but it doesn’t quite have the same purchasing power as it would have if you made it last year instead
