Yea I don't understand that argument. So all these corporations are working together to keep prices high. Not one will go against the grain and lower their prices to get more customers. Not one.
If these raised prices weren't increasing their bottom line, they wouldn't be doing it.
If it is increasing their bottom line, then the argument would be why should they NOT do it?
Obviously not talking about outliers like electric companies and monopolies, but we're mostly talking about restaurants and food prices, where there are cheaper replacement options.

Like what? Obviously you don't have to eat at restaurants but we do have to go to the grocery store. Should we all start farming in our backyards?

Not necessarily. Sometimes prices are raised just to keep the status quo. The added increase of raw materials/labor (push for $15 minimum wage) causes overall costs to be more expensive.
All these morons pushing for higher minimum wages really thought prices wouldn't increase.
