    They’ll probably be the next to jack up their prices though.

    The entire industry will. It’ll be like in 2021 when the world kinda sorta reopened and food and beverage manufacturers basically unilaterally decided to raise prices by 30%.

    $12 a year isn’t much of a boost, though.

      They’ll keep jacking up their prices, because of inflation, but they won’t pay their employees to match, nobody will. They’ll make more, we’ll make less, and we’ll pay more for services we use, further increasing their profits.

        You’re right.

        That’s the way of things in America, because 98% of the voting population votes for it every two years. Too few of us are willing to hold anyone accountable.
