If our town motto is "Losing our schools $15 at a time", I'd be inclined to agree with you. I don't mind paying extra if I know the money stays local.
But you have a point if the difference was significant enough to turn people away, then our local businesses are failing us as well. I'm all for a fair mark up, but ripping people off is another matter entirely.
