If you want to know whether the economy for the simple folk is improving under the current kleptocracy, here you go:
Yes, items at the Dollar Tree now cost $1.50. (They’ve been
$1.25 for a while, but this is still a 17% increase in the past month.) I’m
guessing that a good chunk of their inventory is manufactured in China, so it’s
bound to get worse.
I can understand why Dollar Tree isn’t renaming itself to
Dollar-fifty Tree, because they have no way of knowing how many more price
raises they’re going to have to incorporate. And Ten Dollar Tree doesn’t really
have that same ring to it.
