Everything has been about profits, but now since it’s out in the open and more aggressive, everyone’s just ramping up to squeeze the most out of everyone for everything.

Some of you all may be old enough to remember when there was a “gas shortage” back in 2009 and it was over $5.00/gallon. :laugh:

Then they decided charged us 7 cents per bag for bags at the grocery store, and had a tax on soda and candy. :laugh:

Then we had a chicken “shortage”, now it’s a housing “shortage”, shrinkflation on foods, and car companies sharing your driving data and raising your rates.

What do you all think is next on the the list of shyt to get a big price bump for no good reason?

I think it’s birth control products, since less people are having kids, and we can’t have that. :ehh:
I think those are fine… ppl are too unhealthy and and we need to reduce the amount of plastic

Stop complaining and make more money and you won’t have to worry about petty shyt.

If your an adult and still complaining like it’s going to do something or waiting for someone to do something for you your wasting your life.

If you don’t like the prices don’t buy. Until people start living like that companies will continue to exploit you.

You say home prices are to high? Buy land and build the damn thing yourself. Car prices to high? Buy a cheapo car and fix it up yourself. Food is to expensive? Buy the basics and prepare your own food. Go hunting. Birth control is to expensive? Stop having unprotected sex.

Theres no point in trying to figure out what the powers that be are going to start raising prices on because what the hell are you going to do about it anyways.

I think ppl should complain…
1) it exposes opportunities and issues

2) complaints are what leads to change. If you don’t say nothing, no one is aware or no changes come about

Complaining about it isn’t going to change anything. Vote and shut up and get into position. Or don’t play the game.

People don't 'vote and get into position' without speaking about what bothers them first, they're not robots. We don't all just simultaneously wake up, decide the gas prices are too high and automatically coalesce in front of the city hall building. Emotional ass response.

I'm still shocked how limewire and all that P2P sharing stuff was a huge part of everyone's life and then poof.... Everyone is cool with paying for music and even look down on you if you say you still download.
:mjlol:
I got guys telling me to use a streaming service instead of pirating lol
:mjlol:

But to answer your question, maybe AC in cars or charge you to walk into buildings or even rooms. shyt maybe even charge you to drive through certain neighborhoods
:mjpls:

Complaints are what brought about regulations and changes. Remember… they used to have children in the labor force, nikkas was losin limbs in factories and at meat packin plants daily… cars ain’t have seat belts or air bags… nikkas couldn’t get health insurance because of pre existing conditions.

Housing discrimination
Job discrimination

The list goes on

Once I saw that they sometimes remove songs off Spotify I knew I had to have a personal library.

they charging extra for exfoliating your feet during a pedicure now. calling it "callous removal +5$" when it's literally just scrubbing dead skin off which used to be part of a standard spa pedicure. like mfer.... what the fucc are you soaking my feet for if you not going to scrub them :mindblown:
Men have barbershop inflation conversations often.
But as a women, how has pedicure inflation, affected your pocketbook? :jbhmm:

I woke up realizing what a fool I was for wasting my life working a 9-5.

Then I come on here and see some fool talking like a bytch asking “what the next big thing is” . Like a 10 year old eating for the his next toy.
Boss up and do something different. It may take time, but you can start now.
