Big corporation jack up prices and unit sales growth decelerate.

Company exec. crows that the 30% price increase is a “net positive” for said big corporation’s profits, while joking about timing of worldwide recession.

Customer parsimony puzzles said exec. Can't see beyond end of nose. Exec. bonus safe for another year.

Macmillan inspired by evidence of innovative business model, seeks “net positive” growth too.

Business as usual.

Why is nobody surprised?
