Why aren't we pushing back against dynamic pricing?

The price will be determined in real time and based on your profile. Thanks to AI and your extensive digital footprint corporations will have access to a vast amount of data to determine how much to charge you. You will find it everywhere, clothing, food, car etc...

How did we get here? Where is the pushback?

And when you add health care cost on top of everything, is the goal to make us to spend in perpetuity and having nothing saved.

If you think you have enough saved, under dynamic pricing you will simply overpay.


The goal is to have a sizable percentage of the population in debt and desperate. Someone’s got to do all of those jobs that the immigrants now being deported were taking care of.

Instacart got caught recently doing this and had to publicly apologize and state they would stop.

Dynamic pricing on your groceries.

Blame your government. They don't have your interest in mind


I’m fine with this. Air travel is ruining our environment. It should be a luxury not a right.

Same. I buy less.

If I do buy, I try to buy for cheap so my profile will let them know I only pay less.

Prices around the XMas holiday are already outrageous but this could also be because there is no snow and it’s not cold enough to make snow. Lots of people like us are canceling their ski reservations.


This is one way to tax the rich.
