At the same time, what the fuck is up with selling
shirts for $10?  That's the same price that people
sold shirts for in 1994.  

If everyone would up shirt prices to $13 or $15, then
little bands could afford to switch to American
Apparel without spending more than they make.  We need
a paradigm shift, here, people!
