Such things tend not to be done because no one wants to go first. It increases costs and requires higher prices, and no one wants to be the first to charge more unless they feel that their competitors will follow suit. Since price is a major factor in which product you buy, the temptation for a competitor to not follow suit and gain market share at the first company's expense by offering lower prices will be well nigh irresistible. Such actions tend to finally take place when the political climate compells everyone in the industry to do it, or else.
How do you propose it be done?

Well, let's see what we have to choose from (rustles around in her bag) ...
OK on the menu for our large population reduction we have:
1. War
2. Famine
3. Plague
4. Flood
5. Earthquake
With plague, you get eggroll.
