Consumers have been agreeing with the “people don’t want to work” narrative so they’re riding this train of poor customer service as long as they can.
Meat in particular is playing games because first they got away with jacking up prices MUCH MUCH higher, THEN the US Federal government started going after them.
So now they’re playing this game. Very annoying. Too much vertical
power in that industry.

What gets me and always has is: one can’t even say “conspiracy” when it comes to businesses.
All one can say is: “That’s just business. Can’t blame them for wanting to make money”.
