Am I just being ignorant in thinking it’s strange that these vendors need to increase their prices by 24% when inflation is not even double digits?
Corporate greed. It happens with everything, be it prices of microchips or mashed potato.
Wow, I wish I lived where inflation wasn’t double digits.
That’s the US apparently. Is it worse elsewhere?
In Sweden and the UK, although it’s come down a bit at least.
The food inflation is especially crazy, it was over 20% for a while.
But I think the Eastern European countries like Lithuania, Estonia, etc. have had it the worst - but at least they were starting from lower prices.
Greed. Nothing else.
This isn’t just a tech issue. Every company loves inflation because they can use it as an excuse to raise prices.
Inflation is just companies raising prices
