The business notion is reduced costs, not jack up prices to the moon so Timun and company can just open their wallets. Usually when prices get jacked up, people get upset.

But even with the cost cutting prices have still been jacked up. Taking the food industry lead, the city's solution would be to reduce service, increase taxes, but also include a TIP option on all user fees and property tax forms.
