Im more curios has to how they obtained this information.

Oh and about pricing its not them, its The US Econemy Going down the shi77er again, wouldn't suprise me if the 2nd great depresion is on its way in.

also the rise in oil Prices, it prevents on of the major nerve's of america From working, Trucking. in other words the products cannot move because they wont pay trucker's there due. my uncle was a truck driver for 25 years he quit 2 months ago.
