    Great comment on the article

    No, sale price should not go up 10% because one component of it, the labour, went up 10%. It should go up if all components went up 10% - food cost, rent, electricity, taxes, etc.

    Typically, if labour costs go up 10%, the retail cost would go up 3%. The rest is profiteering
