Yes, huge food corporations can offer very low prices. But they can also use loss leaders (a few low priced popular items) to bring you in for items that are not at all low in cost.
Inflation is on the rise — particularly at the grocery store.
One big reason why?
Minimal competition opens the door to maximal price-gouging — and the opportunity to pull shady tricks like this. https://youtu.be/ad5GfgrPkYo?si=iDRiVN9_TsjGsD9k

Stay strong against the criminal regime. We deserve intelligent, capable, and compassionate people who want to protect us and improve our lives, and that includes ALL of us.
Trump and MAGA…that’s not what will “kill” us off.
If democracy dies…it will result from our own decision to commit “suicide.”
This is an example of the suicidal attitude I’m talking about.
Resilience is what determines whether democracy survives. Without that nothing else meaningful happens.

Democrats reveal whistleblower details of Ghislaine Maxwell prison ‘luxuries’
In a letter to the president, House Democrats say Maxwell’s treatment as she prepares a clemency request makes the convicted sex offender look like a “guest at a Trump hotel.”

Trump does exactly what criminals do, protect other criminals. Pardon or not, Giuliani is still a criminal and a traitor, and will always be known as such, just like the person he was trying to help.

Yes, the oligarchs are brashly and unashamedly, allowing themselves to be seen for what they are. It’s time for a major correction, and this would not be the first time in our history. This has been necessary.
One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.
The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.
But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

The problem is that have our country doesn’t seem to ever catch on. We already have municipal police departments, fire departments and sanitation. This is one way we take care of everybody. The only reason to claim that these things are terrible is that it prevents the wealthy I’m taking a cut.
With Zohran Mamdani's inspiring victory, Republicans are yet again fearmongering about "socialism."
But conservatives always yell “socialism” at every initiative designed to help people.
It's nothing more than an old scare tactic. https://youtu.be/xq02yuY4wDQ?si=akvbkf8GSClBEHLt

This is a very clear point. The sooner we get rid of Trump and his hate-filled way of life, the sooner we become a great country again. With him affecting American life, we are significantly weakened. Once he can’t interject his venomous tendencies, the sooner we recover from this ongoing nightmare.
