I'm all for bashing corporations, but y'all, this is a $1 increase for the first time in years. Not only is that reasonable, If anything, the rate of inflation is such that this is still effectively cheaper than it has been just a couple years ago.

Does the calculation showing that it's cheaper when accounting for inflation also account for wage stagnation? ~Strawberry
