Thank you for allowing me to use your comment as an example. It is not intended to be argumentative directly with you. It is a great example of the topic of the OP. :)
But this is a pet peeve of mine even though I have been in business myself since Carter was in office. The opportunism is hitting me especially hard this time around because now I have grown kids with their own families and they are about to lose their homes because of the Biden economy and the reality of this exact greedy price gouging.
I’m going to call out and expose every single reason why. This is not all Biden, supply is taking advantage of the situation and being greedy on top of the Biden economic issues. It is the straw that is breaking the camel’s back and that little difference is what will break my kids.
The opportunistic greed is just as wrong as Biden’s failed economy. It is rubbing salt in the wound and in no way should they be allowed a free pass and immunity.
Perhaps they are merely following Biden’s example. Who has been more greedy than the American political class…the Biden’s and Romneys and Obamas and Clintons and McConnells and Grahams who have sold out their country to the lobbyists and the Chinese and the Ukrainians and the Muslims? The corporatists see this and simply want to get in on the action before it all collapses into rubble.
While the greed may be in a lot of places…the standard is set in the government. A fascist government acts like fascists. Price gouging from other quarters might not be so prevalent if graft was not currency of Washington D.C. if perhaps that was not the standard of economic morality there.
So yeah, this is on Biden…all of it…because this is the standard he - and his political class brethren - have established. This is his kleptocracy.
