It's come for everything. Everything from components used in factory lines to the ingredients bought by restaurants, it's all going to shit. The games industry just happens to be both heavily consolidated and highly public in nature.

I have been mentioning this and sometimes I get a response like oh your bought a worse thing and I can't convey how this is something I have been seeing especially in the last year. It cracks me up because it reminds me of the big bad communists. We are a society that is still advanced and limping along but everything is just getting crappier and crappier.
