The only way this article could be more blunt is to add the word “suckers” at the end of its headline.

The Financial Times is kissing up to the grifters and frames it more like praise.

Record profits by price gouging.

Record profits by psychopathy.

Enabled by people not putting their foot down.

These companies are already making record-profits.

They are not getting anyone new. They are not building new or better products and services.

They are just jacking up the prices.

They won’t sacrifice those profit margins or those bonuses, but you, sucker, they’l throw under a bus.

You keep paying for them to cover up their incompetence. Think about that.

Someone is broke, but they just cover it up by taking your bank account and helping themselves to it.

And you just standing around and saying, “Oh well, what are you gonna do?”

Try not buying what they are selling.

Because as it stands, this admitted profiteering isn’t illegal.

Donald Trump is a snowflake president who constantly says there is a national state of emergency and started a scam war in Iran, which companies can use as an excuse to jack up prices just because they can.

National emergencies should be a time a restraint. Only if you have morals and competence.

Not if you are a pig at the trough.
