Tariffs will drive the prices upward but consumers will still be compelled to make those purchases for a time, which is to say that they will just bite the cost because the alternative is less desirable. This demonstrates a lack of equilibrium between price and demand. In a non-elastic scenario, the rise in price would directly correlate to a decrease in demand.

Best comment ever.

It was Subway that was recently purchased by the investment firm that owns Jimmy Johns. Jersey Mike’s didn’t sell.

I agree with you. To me, Violator was the last album of the 2nd generation of their sound, the first being a lot more New Wave. Although, I do think the shift from New Wave to the more techno industrial 2nd era was more gradual.
