Im not saying that what they are doing is right. You asked why it keeps going up. But thats inflation. The price of everything is going up and theres really nothing you can do anything about it because all it takes is someone to place their product at a higher rate thus giving all other products an excuse to go up to that price and the ones that do not get viewed as lesser products for some reason. Then with products costing even more now the demand for higher pay increases so they can afford the same things that they could before. This causes things like minimum wage to go up which therefore forces companies to jack the prices up even higher so they make the same profit margin that they originally did... we're stuck in an endless loop that will never end. Its that way for all necessities in life. Because thats what they are. We need them and everyone knows we need them so we will pay any price because we have no choice. Do I agree with it? No but its the way it is and its never going to end
