Capitalism. While the average person is frustrated over their grocery bills being 2x, the corporate ghouls are trying to milk as much money as they can. Not to mention I believe they pulled out their shares before the decision was made so it seems like they were trying to just cash out before shit hit the fan.

Everything is being run on borrowed money, even major studios like Marvel or Blizzard take injections and answer to share holders / venture capital, instead of just making a better product.

Thank you, I wasn't sure if I was just getting impatient with websites and not appreciating how far we've come since DSL. It's made sense in my head but it always felt like a mildy dumb question
