I run a very small business and it's difficult these days to deal with all of the costs and taxes and still make a profit.  I rely heavily on keeping my costs as low as possible so I can hope for a profit that allows me to not only earn a living but also to grow my business.  I'm not alone because there are tens of millions of other people just like me.  Prices are increasing for almost every single item/service across the world and we don't need more of those.  We need less!
