I’m a size 3 or 4X depending on the manufacturer, suit size 62, and I rarely spend more than $10 on a shirt or $20 on a pair of slacks or jeans. And no, I have never bought clothes second-hand or from a thrift store. This guy is nuts!

okay, demand goes down, so prices go UP. Adam Smith must be spinning in his grave. I can’t help but think something besides the law of supply and demand is at work with all these crazy prices. I don’t want to get all tinfoil-hattish, but the more stories like this keep popping up, the squirrelier it seems.

I will stick with supply and demand. But is odd how much inertia this has in the stories.
Egyptian cotton farmers could be making a bundle or did thier gov’t make them grow biomass for feul...?

So this guy is predicting that a reduction in demand will lead to higher prices? I don’t think so.
If demand is fall, price could rise if supply decreases by a greater amount. But that does not seem to be what this guy is saying?
