I suspect Glenn would be truly happy to pass on any inflation he sees...although considering the ungodly, insane, mark up on products he sells, he probably has some wiggle room. Wow! I surely got drawn into this. The margins on the retail level are half what they were ten years go.I did not say they were low. The margins for the manufacturers have become very small. We pass increases in our cost of finished gold product on to the consumer immediatly. That does not make us bad people<G> The chicken, grapefruit, and orange farmers who are driving Glenns employees into bankruptcy with their enormous margins,(he did say he paid them more, but they couldn't keep up with food prices, didn't he?)are true crooks in our system. I have a friend who is an orchardist in Florida. That asshole gets 1 cent an orange!!! Can you imagine? Guys like him are just killing our system. I do not know the fruit business that at all. Is it really that good margin wise? It seems as supply and demand goes out of balance, oil increases its margin on the mining, refining and retailing level. Passing the costs on in oil seems to be a foregone conclusion.
