High Corporate Profit Margins Contribute To Inflation

All fees need to be disclosed at time of purchase. No more booking a $99 fleabag hotel room and having a $60 "resort fee" attached when you check in. Because if you'd known about the hidden fees, you would have paid the price for a room in a nicer hotel. the "resort fee" hotels are counting on you being so tired by the time you get to your destination that you won't go searching for another hotel or might not be able to find one if they're all booked up by the time you get there.

That is a deceptive trade practice. It's the reason attorneys file so many class action lawsuits against companies that engage in dodgy business practices.

It was disclosed. You just didn't pay attention.

If it wasn't disclosed people would dispute the credit card charge, and win

Let’s not forget Trump’s Tax Law created gushers of federal treasury receipts once his early accelerated deductions expired - these deductions needed to incentivize the reshoring of profits trapped offshore by the tax code. But even during the accelerated deduction early phase of the tax law, Trump’s new treasury receipts still set records every month. Bidenomics killed the treasury receipt gravy train.

The Tax Law cost the government nothing while reducing profit margins due to increased domestic competition.
