Its artificial Demand gouging by the major retailers and everyone is following...
Mills only shut down for two weeks last year... they arent behind on anything. Its not transportation cost either as their prices havent gone up. Tree farmers arent getting the money either...
This is 100% Obama/Biden to price out the consumer and drive up the cost of housing...
check out the price of wooden bats... they arent going up...
its all targeted to building/making things... creating a shortage that isnt there... metal is up, lumber is up, food cost are up. chlorine for pools is up... there is no shortage...
Ive called 27 lumber mills in the northwest and northeast, they didnt shut down... the markup is at Retail.. Home Depot/Lowes etc...
I run a shop. I buy 10k in lumber every two weeks..
I even called the news to run a story on what Ive found, you know the answer i got... this is 100% trying to put people out of business... That money home depot and lowes are making is going right back to the democrats pocket... dont buy from there, try and find a mill and buy direct or a small mom and pop shop if you can find one.. We have a McCoys nearby and I go there... they are 5$ less per board.. 2x4 is 6-7$... home depot is 12$
Home Depot and Lowes is not your friend... corporate is going to be on the side that they think is going to win.. right now they think that socialism is going to win...
