>I fear the author and most commenters are not aware of the law of demand and supply

I cannot stand how you and people like you try to justify everything by supply and demand. Also you act like it's some natural law of nature. It's not a law of nature- if you took an economics class you would realize it's try to maximize PROFIT. It's not for the good of the people.

All of these things are a CHOICE that people are making to now completely screw the average person for, again, the needs of big corporations and the top 0.01%.
