Is there any chance this has changed in this upside down world we now live in?

No. You are suggesting that human nature has changed and now people are okay with not getting a good deal. If you believe that you should open a business and overcharge for your product or service. You’d make a killing…if you are correct.

What percentage of people get handouts? Have their buying habits changed?

Do they pinch pennies or shop with goals in mind?


Has the media influenced people’s behavior more today than 50 years ago?

I have quit buying certain products ,switched to generic version, or wait for a sale if that is an option. Until the consumer adopts that mentality prices will never go down.

Things like eggs, gas and a few other items that you can watch the prices go up and down on seem to be about it. Most everything else since covid just seems to keep going up in price.


Prices don't do down.

Also, haven't they fallen behind on the fires? Chicken processing plant fires aren't behing reported anymore.
