Right, and when all we buy is food, many, many other businesses go poof. I'm not saying food isn't expensive. I'm saying that's all I buy anymore.

Aren't they also losing customers? I don't buy shit anymore. Won't a lot of places eventually drive themselves out of business? A smaller, captive customer base with the wealth to choose differently if they feel like it. The vast majority just doing without whatever isn't crucial.
