At one time they were great and very necessary. Unfortunately, they've overstepped their bounds. But if we completely get rid of them you can say goodbye to fair treatment to workers
Anyone else tired of the S&D scam?

No, when it switches the government will tell you what you can have. People have this fantasy of equality through Socialism or communism... That's not how it works. You get the upper 1% and the rest were peasants
Yes, everyone can equally wait in line at the supermarket for empty shelves, maybe some bread if you're lucky
Don't forget elasticity and government intrusion on price.
i wouldnt have a problem with unions if they didnt act entitled to a job......i got bitched out by a union guy for "stealing his job" because i moved a chair 20' down a hall.
if you only have a job because i am artificially restricted from doing basic tasks....you dont deserve a job.
maybe you wouldnt have a problem with being "fucked over" if you stopped taking "union breaks" every 15 mins.
Bro you are going to fry his mind keep it simple at the 101 level community college level
Was it this thread where we were regaled with the story of the communist light bulb changer, who was shocked that he was obsolete outside of a communist country? A friend of mine was once officially written up by his employer for changing a light bulb. Yep, taking a union job. Unions and communism. Workers of the world, unite...
Is it possible for you to understand the difference of price gouging compared to supply and demand? I live in CA on the coast clearly that’s not the same as gouging prices haha
Let me guess, your mad because.. YOU.... actually want the bag of dicks? In fact so much you brought it up because you like talking about bags of dicks? out of nowhere? Listen... Over here in CA.. no one will judge you for that. I sure won’t.

Haha congratulations, you have zero.. originality. you’d probably call your mom a communist if she did your laundry wrong.
Out of that whole reply, the only thing you picked up on was dicks, huh, how bout that, I’m anti abortion but after reading the dumb shit that you type, I’m pretty sure I would have handed your mom the hanger!
I found the source of the OPs anger.
out of all that huh, as if I NEED to give your shit some validity? it was price gouging. that's it. doesn't take a fucking rocket scientist to figure it out. its honestly baffling how difficult it is for you to think someone could actually price gouge lol. like, let it go man. youre not under attack from communists. I'm not arguing with you closet Brokeback mountain folks anymore, at the end of the day you're just angry aggressive people. your wives probably all tell you the same thing. its been fun though! =)
this store is not hurting in anyway shape or form. they are crushing it financially. and they are gouging costs on particular things before the forecasted slowdown, and its not unheard of. last I'll say of it. thanks for all the responses.
I hope you are well stocked, because there is a fairly good chance come a week from now, you'll be wishing you could buy the ammo at the prices you are upset about now and possibly 6 months from now even that might be fond memories...
Maybe I see the problem now. Ammo is a commodity and you are not treating it as such.
If I have million barrels of oil stored in a tank that I bought at $30/barrel
then half the world oil supply disappears over night (aliens take it without warning)
Oil is now selling on the open market for $100/barrel
I decide to price my oil at $105 barrel
am I a price gouger? or did market situations outside my control affect the price of a commodity I happen to have old inventory of?
Guess what, no one has to buy my oil. I am SPECULATING that by the time my oil sells, I will need to spend $105/barrel to replace it. I am only covering my own ass based on the knowledge I have available to me.
Your OP should have stated:
Retailer that is raking in fat cash already decides to increase the price on ammo he has in stock to make even more profits today, He must be speculating that replacing that ammo is going to cost more as ammo prices seem to rise each day at other vendors. This makes me angry because now I have to pay more all because of his crazy speculation that ammo is suddenly more valuable. How dare he have an opinion different from mine and take action on that opinion.
Nope. Just good old fashion small business Californian make a quick buck for yourself tactic that works allllll the time for businesses Round here. It’s price gouging.
Love how non business owners love to tell business owners how to run their business.
@kortik was catching flak on his pricing because someone thought the tool wasnt worth the price like he knows what kortiks costs are. I by the way love kortiks products - great utility and value.
You people should be governors in a covid world. They have certainly been good telling business how to run their operations.
California is not a good example. Those guys seem to exist at the whim of legislation.
Wouldnt be surprised if their business decisions have to take in political considerations.
Liability wise they may have costs they shouldnt just to ensure when they sell a lawful product that someone misuses they dont end up losing their lifes work because someone decided they have pockets deep enough to fleece.
Interesting you say that. Family owns a a few small businesses and franchises in Texas and Michigan. None of them have price hiked, all of them have taken a huge hit. But good try.
So, your family doesn't have any business sense...and how pray tell does that translate to you having any business experience? Osmosis? You're the guy that rather drown that acknowledge his boat has a leak. The same type of guy that tells anyone who listens his HiPoint is "just as good."
If you're tired of the high price of ammo. You really won't like what's about to happen. With the new pres. And vp in charge.
My gun store seems to hike the fuck out of prices too.
But all they make off me is the transfer fee, I buy my shit when the price is right online.

well, considering one of my brothers chains has gone from one location to 3 in under 18 months id consider it a success. a huge hit doesn't mean bad business. it means the Shitty michigan Gov gave local jurisdiction the ability to close business they considered non essential which was then enforced by the local fire department chief and then 3 months later overturned... 2 months of a complete Loss, and one month of a curbside pickup only loss. they are now re opened on schedule in all locations. no offense man but you're not too bright. "sounds like shitty businessmen then". =P

yea ok lol. we Americans pay the taxes. no matter who's in office. cost always comes to us.
oh wow, do you think that .01 percent of me gives a shit or needs to prove anything? haha if they agree on the sed price gouging that would be all that matters now wouldn't there fella.
I believe that 99.9 percent of you would rather argue yourselves into oblivion then just sit back and think, "I guess it could have been price gouging.. as much as it couldn't, and since I'm not there and didn't witness it first hand maybe I shouldn't assume this guy its a liar and a communist and maybe I shouldn't be mean or offensive for no reason". but naaaaaaaa that's not it so on with the insults and aggression. better we do it here then complaining about politics in front of our wives and kids I guess.
Think? Nope. Convinced? Yes. Otherwise you would have stated your opinion and moved on...not lingered trying to convince everyone else you are right.
actually this all is just curing boredom. ive said its price gouging, and I haven't budged. even amidst your finest economic suggestions and pummeling insults. now I'm just communicating back to the shit people have to say. Have you seen any convincing? lol
Good, glad you understand that.
That goes for tariffs also which I support as their intention, even though costing me, is to reduce the public burden by creating American industry and jobs.
hahaha you eat paint don't you? c'mon just tell us ..what color is your fav flavor.
