    You are completely correct.

    But that doesn’t mean the price is always right.

    Here in Belgium we had a year where the electricity was 6x more expensive. They changed the bread prices from around €2.20 to around €2.80 because of that (no idea why). Now the electricity has its normal price again, but the breads are still the same price.

      This is the part of the whole thing that pisses me off the most. They’ll use anything to justify an increase but never ever bring it back down.

      Everyone is poorer for it except the assholes can never get enough.
