        While that might be the only direct result, you’re also assuming that A) it’s only taking place in major chain stores and B) that the effects won’t include price hikes for everyone to compensate for that slight dip in profits.

        In reality, corporations have showed us they’re never going to just “take the L”. If something negatively impacts their bottom line, they’ll make up for it by forcing that financial burden onto their customers.
