Target profit plunges 90% as inflation-weary shoppers pull back

Target reported profit plunged 90% in the second quarter, falling far short of expectations, as inflation-weary customers pulled back on spending on nonessential items.

Like this is a genuine question for me. There seems to be some lack of awareness on the part of the people who make decisions that a consumers need to have money to consume with or the whole system siezes like an engine with no grease. The plebes need to be given back some share of profits so they can continue to purchase stuff and keep the whole system from breaking down.

    my conspiracy is that making life shitty and expensive is their way of reducing population growth so humans don't over populate the earth

        Of course, but if the highest bourgeoisie are operating under the assumption that resource consumption per capita must continually increase, the obvious thing for them to turn to in order to prevent total climate collapse is population control.
