Is this a serious question?

Lol; we've commoditized everything so hard that we have run out of new stuff to market.

Only way to get more profits is to charge more for less.

Hence why granny's retirement fund (which would easily pay for her retirement 20 years ago) isn't enough to make it by these days.

Granny was priced out of being a member of society.

That's why 70+ people are working.

Almost like the whole system is breaking or something...

Nah, impossible. The green line is going up and green is good.

As a former US President said, "It's the economy, stupid." (Not to mention all the abysmal laws that let the rich steal from the poor)
