This is basic supply and demand economics at this point.

A sign you can ignore someone's opinion of economics.

Basic doesn't mean "fundamental." It means "for children."

This is a cheap and convenient product using price-gouging to be neither cheap nor convenient. It's fucking stupid and you gain nothing by pretending otherwise. Normalizing this sort of abuse is part of how it spreads. Stop making things worse for everybody.
