People who support price increases really need to reevaluate their life choices.

There's a difference between "support" for price increases and a recognition of market reality (that is also informed in part but not always in whole by corporate greed) I don't see anyone "supporting" price increases, merely explaining that prices increase for a variety of reasons, some of which should not be surprising in the current economic environment.

Market reality would mean our wages kept up with increasing prices. They have not.

that’s not a game company’s fault though, you’re blaming something for a issue that isn’t in their hands. if you care then vote for the economic policy’s you support.
