      The price gouging discussions are only just happening because of how bad it’s been lately and it isn’t even getting fixed by legislation. Companies just realized they’re sales are way down because of how high prices are and are trying to fix things. Companies are facing no real repercussions for it and they could very well try it again in 2 years when everyone has forgot about it.

      My comment was centered mainly around the fact that we’re not actually addressing the root cause of the issue, just the symptom and in some cases just hiding the symptoms.
