Stop blaming the economy for inflation and start blaming the damn companies! Companies like Pepsi reported bigger profits and less sales in 2023! They are just gouging us. There profits are going up while they’re charging us more and selling less.
So annoying to have a post get so much attention and I accidentally used there instead of their. Bummer!
@klepper_aaron Inflation is a lot more complex than that. With supply and demand as the main players, companies make decisions based on sustainability, market share, production, distribution, etc. "Corporate greed" is an anarchist rally cry, but it's kind of a mirage. hbr.org/2022/12/what-c…
@klepper_aaron True. Sometime back Breyers ice cream cut their 1/2 gallon product size yet kept the same price. I stopped buying it. This was long before COVID. I can buy a premium product 1/2 gallon for the same price or less
