This is end stage capitalism greed. It's a full blown assault on the consumer. The trust that citizens have in their retails is being mortgaged for desperate profits. The quality of the products is dropping to possibly dangerous levels. There's no quality control. The products that you are buying could be full of toxic, carcinogenic, reproductive harm chemicals. The cast iron pan you buy has lead in it. The kids toys are using toxic paints. The cotton clothes you are buying are not cotton.
