[QUOTE="The Oregonian, post: 3003131, member: 51405"] That is exactly what is happening, and is normal. Freight costs are elevated and have been for a few years. Things like the Suez Canal slowing down bc of the Houthis increases cost. Manufacturers have to raise prices because their input costs are going up. Labor has been a mess and drives costs up for companies. Other things are higher as well. Either profits go down or prices go up. I am not sure why greed is the first word out of so many people's mouths with these discussions. Why should Joe, who I replied to, live with less profit? He shouldn't, so he raises prices. Companies are doing the same thing and people see it as a conspiracy or the embodiment of greed. [/QUOTE]
