Price hikes in Japanese food markets are not good ？.

The prices at markets that claim to offer "passionate prices" and the like are in an "all-you-can-eat" state. In Japan, people seem to be willing to raise prices even by a few percent, but Japanese foodstuffs at this market have doubled in price from a little while ago, or even increased by 100 percent, without hesitation. I guess they are trying to make up for the loss of revenue caused by the Corona disaster, but the fact that the number of shoppers has not decreased even at these prices suggests that sales are much higher than before the Corona disaster and revenue is increasing.
Even for locally manufactured and sold products, which should not be so expensive in terms of transportation costs and raw materials, the local Japanese and Japanese-Americans end up buying them no matter how expensive they are, so I feel that they are setting absurd prices in a state of so-called "hiked prices". ？
Of course, they are relatively modest in raising prices for necessities and prominent products because they would be exposed if they raise prices all at once, but even so, they raise prices many times in a short period of time.
When the store first opened after the acquisition, there were parts where I could see the business attitude of a Japanese company with the concept of cheap sales, but I wonder if they are changing their business attitude to one where they carry everything on a large scale, but the prices are high, but you buy it because you need it anyway ？. ？ For those of us who eat mainly Japanese food, I was complaining about the business that makes me want to boycott them, which I cannot do even if I wanted to.

Bankruptcy is coming out.
Even in extreme poverty, the cost of living must be reviewed to increase unearned income.

Will I have a rich or poor old age
The only way to avoid a poor old age is to keep working and in the end rely on social welfare.

I am lucky because I can live on Sunday Daily, though not luxuriously.

I'm glad I can live a luxurious life in the Sunday Daily.
I am glad that I have planned from my youth to live a prosperous life in my old age.

The Dunning-Kruger effect refers to the tendency of people with low ability to overestimate themselves based on a false perception of their actual evaluation and their self-evaluation, without correctly recognizing the difference. It is one of the psychological phenomena "cognitive bias".

For example, if you are sarcastic to a person with low ability, the person will not perceive the sarcasm as sarcasm due to the Dunning-Kruger effect. They receive sarcasm purely as a compliment. The less competent a person is, the more he/she perceives himself/herself to be knowledgeable, even though he/she lacks the overall essence or total amount of knowledge. If you do not accept feedback from those around you, you will not realize what you have failed to do or what you have not done, and you will not be able to improve.
The result is the Dunning-Kruger effect, which creates a large difference between the objective evaluation of those around you and your own evaluation.
