I think it's just car dealerships colluding to pump their numbers.

Lol it’s just kayfabe as a reason to increase prices.

I mean what would you do if you owned a business and wanted to make more $$$. Increase prices is the easiest way if everyone else is doing it

Not having a full crew because people sitting out on unemployment and then you fire several workers because they wont get the jab and this is what happens. Idiots that have only worked retail or government workers who have lots of people who do nothing on the field think if you are lacking 20% of your workforce then you'll be 20% slower but that's not how it works with things like dock work where you need people at positions to make something happen so if you are lacking 20% of the workforce you are going to be slowed by more than 50%, if not more. They backups cause it to bunch up and it slows down more. Moral depletes as what's left are expected to pick up the slack and even if yhey do they will burn out. How about a stimulus for people who do go to work, Brandon?

These places are losing thousands per hour no doubt. Stores are packed with customers willing to spend but nothing to buy.

I went with the intention of buying for everyone I had to, like 5 people with big spending - ended up leaving after 2 hours with 2 new books for myself - that was it. I was enraged. I grabbed 2 books I didn't plan on, and spent $35.

Online businesses lobbying for lockdowns are strangling businesses utterly. I hope all these people get aggressive cancer 100% dead srs.
Stores have just started to show bare spots on shelves this week.
they can't keep up supply wise with the increased buying for gifts and Christmas parties according to workers.

Online isn't much better. BRB ordering online and get told before Thanksgiving it will arrive by January 31st.

With what this all exposes you would think that there would be some incentives to bring manufacturing back to the United States. Or at least away from Asia.
Yeah Buddyyy! Light weight! Light weight baby!!!!

I work at a car dealership's service department. I've got about 20 cars that are sitting in the lot with parts that are on infinite backorder. We don't have loaners available because they are all taken up, rental companies are depleted. In fact several of those are rental cars that are torn up. For every car I get out, two more come in. On the sales lot they finally started really getting cars in but it's going to be a while until we are caught up.
