More of a small scale but i heard on the radio (in London, i listen to a crappy radio station presented by opinionated tossers, but its the only 1 that i can pick up with semi decent music) that many traders had hiked up the price of the stars and stripes and the local government wanted to press charges. i DETEST capitalism but isn't it funny when a few traders are using "free enterprise" and are getting punished. Slight hints of socialism i feel. But what the traders are doing is a bit out of line and are exploiting a bad situation. Also in New York city immediately after the attack hotels rose the price of rooms by about 25%. That's quite disgusting because these people had just been throught the worst experiance in their life, possibly knowinf people that are missing or dead and businesses are exploiting them. These are the people that should be punished, but not for the prices but for pure lack of consideration for others and the innocent people involved.
Life is a game that we play, that we never get out of alive.
