The bullshit is thick in corporate America these days:
Starbucks will increase prices this year, the coffee giant said on Tuesday, blaming supply chain disruptions and a sharp rise in labor costs.
For the last three months of last year, the company’s profit soared 31 percent, to $816 million, Starbucks said in reporting its quarterly earnings on Tuesday. Revenue grew to $8.1 billion, a 19 percent jump compared with the same quarter a year ago.
Companies like Starbucks are doing a pretty, pretty, pretty good job of rebranding corporate greed as "inflation".
