And whom is responsible by and large for working hard to influence those laws? It's a bit like saying it isn't Intuit's fault for how crazy it is to file taxes in the U.S., as it's all coming from lawmaker policy. The problem is, Intuit has been working hard to influence said laws in their favor for decades; they are very much responsible for why taxes there are still a quagmire of forms and rules. This is a wonderful fluff piece that appears to work hard to redirect blame in a different direction. > Regardless, the fact that companies raise their prices in response to shortages is not only defensible but desirable. It's not necessarily the demand driven increase that pisses people off. It's when that price becomes the new normal afterwards that becomes the problem. Three guesses as to why it stays there.
