In order to be in business one should have products and services reasonably priced and employees paid decent, liveable wages. Thus for consumers, their earnings should be liveable to afford the prices that are demanded. It's a cycle and when one goes out of order, it breaks that cycle. The parity of earning power and costs of living has widened over the scores of years and has come to a head that everything fails. This formula was broken a long time ago when the businesses got greedy for more profits and price gouging and not raising employees' wages. So, let's not be surprised with the ultimate outcome.
