Wow. Poor DOW Chemical. They also hurt and feel our pain.
Twenty percent makes for a nice fuel surcharge.

"Dow Chemical to raise product prices by 20%"

Wouldn't that almost immediately put certain businesses heavily dependent on their products out of business?

I know a welder who tells me he passes on the greatly increased price of steel directly on to his customers.

That welder, several car repair shop owners I know, and the manager of a local grocery all tell me their overall business has been way down since this past December.
