As consumers, we can attribute the rising prices of goods and services to corporations prioritizing profits above all else. This constant pressure to generate record profits year after year puts us in a difficult position as we are forced to pay more for everyday expenses. Examples of this include Microsoft increasing subscription fees, adding new features like AI, and displaying ads on their platforms. Additionally, companies like Broadcom inflating the costs for IT organizations also contribute to the price increase.
