Yikes! I am at the point of needing more to finish several flimsies.
As others have mentioned, everything is up - offshoring all our factories and then having to ship stuff back from around the globe sure was short-sighted.
But that is all corporations care about - the next quarter earnings report and the bottom line.
They are also reaping record profits since the pandemic but trying to blame labor costs for the supply chain woes and inflation. Anything to keep the little people fighting other little people for crumbs without having time to wonder who ate the bulk of the cake. No one earns a billion dollars.
Oops! I almost fell off my soap box. : )
