There it is folks. Straight from the horse’s mouth. They won’t do what’s in the best interest of humanity without “material reaction” (ie; an arsonist or maybe even something more extreme.)
Not an American, isn't there a limit on how you can raise prices? At least in my country we have "SRP"s (suggested retail price) and whoever exceeds that will need a good reason to do so, and simply citing theft will not be an enough reason.
We have the MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price), but that's not given for every product, but more importantly it's exactly what it sounds like; a suggestion. There's no governing body to make sure stores are in line with MSRP.
...Or just raise prices because they want to increase margins and lie and say its because a massive increase in theft or inflation or whatever they want to say and then laugh about it on a public earnings call that you can raise prices however you want because consumers still have to buy certain goods no matter what.
