If people pay for the higher prices then it doesn’t matter. The general public would need to boycott or literally not be able to afford the prices of the good. Unfortunately, we all are very poorly disciplined in that regard, myself included.

Haha sarcasm I presume. Boycotting certain restaurants or goods would be effective. I myself get take out more than I should or need to.

Unfortunately not sarcasm. When grocery stores are colluding to raise prices, what can you do?

Fair. Essential items have gone up in price. There are other items that aren’t necessary that could be boycotted.
