You just described capitalism, Economics 101, as long as you will buy the sellers will increase the price, until you don't buy. Actually there is a formula for this. If you don't like the price of something don't buy it, but don't complain about it. At least in a capitalism country you have the opportunity to buy. Whereas, in socialist country you wait in line for the possibility of buying one roll of TP. I did not vote for the FL $15 min wage as I think it will increase prices while increasing unemployment. I am willing to bet anyone I am right. All you people who don't like self check-out get ready, because a lot more is coming.
