Just curious as to how you think the gov could regulate the price,especialy if its already too high?. I think they could drive the price up for sure, but regulating it down would simply make folks stop making/importing it because it wasnt profitable in my opinion. Demand for copper world wide in developing markets is what drives the price,if the gov fixed the price here they would simply sell it elsewhere. Your right though ,I get mad every time i walk in a store. But unions demanding more and more money,everyone wanting the mythical "living wage",raising minimum wage ,affects the price also. Add to that the fact that when you pay folks more money they spend more and demand increases ,it simply becomes a vicious circle. Personally what i think its going to take to stop it is for folks to just step back and say we are simply not going to pay it. Get away from being a consumer oriented society so to speak and kind of get back to the make do type of thinking instead of always wanting more and more or the latest and greatest.,,thats MY rant,,LOL
