I&amp;#39;m sick to death of these scams, and you are right they are getting together and doing these things as a industry, not as individual business decisions.  The same thing happened recently in laundry soap as well - just suddenly, every manufacturer simultaneously comes out with smaller containers claiming they are more &amp;quot;concentrated.&amp;quot;  Yeah, right, why couldn&amp;#39;t they have been more &amp;quot;concentrated&amp;quot; all along?  They too did it as an industry, not as individual business decisions.  The collusion to essentially rape the consumer en masse and remove the competitive element is akin to price fixing in my book.
