      Output prices rose significantly more than input prices, i.e., firms hiked margins, potentially as a mechanism to better conserve inventory…(Note that this potential driver of COVID-era margin expansion is distinct from and potentially more plausible than “greedflation.”)

            Oh I thought there was something rational forthcoming, but it’s just baselessly accusing the source of being propaganda.

                  Flak and the enforcers: “Flak” refers to negative responses to a media statement or program (e.g. letters, complaints, lawsuits, or legislative actions). Flak can be expensive to the media, either due to loss of advertising revenue, or due to the costs of legal defense or defense of the media outlet’s public image. Flak can be organized by powerful, private influence groups (e.g. think tanks). The prospect of eliciting flak can be a deterrent to the reporting of certain kinds of facts or opinions.

                  This here is a text book example, dear. Consider getting educated before spreading another man’s propaganda like that.
