ReplyDeleteSt. Gertrude was born around the year 628, and died in 659 at age 33... Hmm, nice trick.
ReplyDeleteOrdained the patron saint of pussycats around 1980, not by the Vatican, but by the internet, the new Martin Luther.
The corporate profits skyrocketing is nor a surprise. Maybe 5% had genuine cost increases and had to raise prices but the other 95% just taking advantage of the publicity of supply shortages and labor costs which is weird when people are not getting raises.
I wonder if there are three brands of soap A, B, C, and everyone buys A, would B and C lower their prices? Then if nobody buys A anymore would they lower their price. But probably the same guy own all three which kills that plan. Curses foiled again.
