to increase their prices to customers if their costs go up? What is a fair margin?
What about their operating expenses? If those go up can they increase their profit margin?

What if it's not as cut and dried as a reseller. What about a manufacturer? The what if I laid out above with regards to Charmin. Changing all that to meet a demand is a lot of risk. Are they able to increase their price due to higher costs to produce as well as higher risk?

Who gets to decide all this? A Judge? A Jury?
