Pocahontas goes after the greedy 'Big 3' supermarkets for making food so expensive, and not Big Ag and dry good manufacturing cartels who actually set most of the prices while receiving government subsidies. (archive.ph)

God damn communists are so stupid. Printing trillions of dollars caused prices to increase. Money printing for welfare and FREE GIBS. Stimy checks. The people voting for free shit did all of this.

Price controls coming! Then food shortages. Then nationalization of ag industries. Then starvation. Then work camps.

It's the same sequence of events. Every single time.

Soaring food prices are intentional. The elites think that food is too cheap. In Germany they came out and explicitly said so.

It was a whole big thing in Germany last year.

Only got German sources.

Here's one auto-translated for example: https://www-welt-de.translate.goog/politik/deutschland/article204952338/Julia-Kloeckner-fordert-hoehere-Preise-fuer-Lebensmittel.html?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US

Here's another one: "Climate ghoul John Gibbons is mad that food is cheap".

It doesn't matter. Communists always blame capitalism for communism's failure. The people will demand price controls as they can no longer afford to eat. The government will nationalize food industries because the people demand it. It will require a work force that are capable of producing food far cheaper. Slave labor is the only real way - so then they build the work camps.

If communists understood capitalism they wouldn't be communists.

If it's anything like the situation in the UK supermarkets, competition is savage, profit margins for supermarkets are razor thin, and the only reason the business works at all is because demand is utterly constant.

Conversely if I want high speed internet my only option is to pay comcast, the parent company of loathsome propaganda outlet MSNBC.

Oh, holy fuck do I understand this. Actual trust busting is not something any politician wants to do because that would mean there went their money and putting a limit on their own criminal investment/business enterprises.

You're still blaming the wrong people. The agriculture and dry goods industries didn't do this, the Democrats did.

Agriculture in Poland gets mad when harvests are too good and demands subsidies for having to lower unit price.

And they keep trying to convince us to eat bugs and that all non western cultures eat bugs. Lol. Yeah.... be like medieval times or dark ages where us peasants eat scraps while only the lords and kings are allow to eat meat.

They want to put grocers under state control.

Golly gee I sure do wonder if this has happened before, maybe in a country or two during the lead up to hyperinflation...

And then they will control what food hits the shelf, eventually they want to ban red meat. They know beef is great for the mind and body.

A weak society is a submissive one.

Why ban beef when they can simply use regulation to price it out of existence?

I agree management's bonuses and pay is criminal, but she won't actually do anything about fair pay/treatment. Nope, gotta send strongly worded letters to retailers because that's the bare minimum to appear like she's actually doing something.
