It's an excuse for the profit line not going up and a desperate squeeze for a few more dollars in profit for their quarterly that they hope their investors don't realize cost more to fight than made so that the cash keeps rolling in.

This kind of tactic of over punishing the poor relies on the stupidity of the wealthy. I don't get how they don't see it as insulting.
