Markets have a way of finding a natural balance whereby the business can charge as much as they possibly can while still having buyers willing to pay that amount such that it maximizes profits and maintains a customer base. You can call that evil if you want. But, then volunteer your own pay cut. The problem is that know-it-all legislators, at all levels, get their stupid little fingers involved in everything and mess it all up for everybody. Here endeth the rant. Holy crap![/quote]
