Exactly. Makes no sense. SOME body has to get a little less greedy; people should be able to work for a livable wage. Education's too expensive. Cost of living's too expensive. Insurance is too expensive. Basic comforts too expensive.
Only this time, STOP THE BUSINESSES FROM RAISING PRICES. Most of your major brands already turn on average a 500-600% profit. It's a mirage that "cheap, overseas labor" keeps product costs down. Case in point: Air Jordans cost about $30-35 to make.
Now look at their price tag. Uh huh.
Bullshit.
