“McHugh said these extra security measures to prevent thefts will only result in costs getting passed down to shoppers, which would make groceries even more expensive.”
Grocery prices are up because teenagers made some posters!
Theft is up? Raise prices to compensate.
Increased headwind on distribution trucks? Raise prices to compensate.
Mars is in retrograde? Raise prices to compensate.
Supply stabilized and reduced our costs on goods? Raise prices to compensate.
Its not exactly a threat if you're going to do it anyway!
People stealing food because the cost of living is high? Raise prices to compensate.
People stealing food because the cost of living is even higher? Raise prices to compensate.
People stealing food because the cost of living is too high? Raise prices to compensate.
People stealing food because the cost of living is so high it becomes prohibitive to production? Raise prices to compensate.

The class war continues. Fuck them.
