Please read the other thread completely and particularly my last comment. I'm making a macroeconomic comment, you're assuming I'm arguing about the morals of the microeconomic decision making here. Arguing about the morality or ethics or greed involved isn't useful. Just like it wasn't useful to argue about greed involved in our recent spike of inflation. This fairly large company is still just another cog in the macroeconomic machine and their behavior is almost deterministic. The more interesting question to me is what it indicates about the macro climate and if there's stormclouds on the horizon or not.
