It’s because we’re being scammed.
For example, [Tyson just raised their prices on meat by 20%, citing “inflation”/“worker shortages” while simultaneously having profits at an all time high.](https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/tyson-foods-beats-revenue-estimates-higher-meat-prices-2022-02-07/) Their price hike and inflation excuse is bullshit as they’re turning *more of a profit* than they ever have before. We’re being asked to subsidize their freight costs and such (by adding it into the pricing of meat) when the company itself is doing the best it ever has.
It’s greed, plain and simple.
