And this will only get worse with deregulation.

Government of the people, by the billionaires, for the billionaires.

Exactly! Our democratic Attorney General here in Washington State has been fighting the merger of Kroger and Albertsons.
Repubs are all for the merger. I wonder how they will benefit

It seems like anti-trust laws, like many others that protect consumers, have just been given up on.

Businesses want to team up and screw the public? Sure, go ahead!

I worked 30 years in the French fry business. The facility in which I worked produced approximately 125,000 pounds of french fries per hour at a 24/7 Day schedule

Bust up monopolized businesses

It's a shame we have to because it's more difficult to bust them up than blocking the mergers at the outset.

Shhh... Then they can't blame President Biden. Has nothing to do w/a global pandemic, everyone buying a Peleton & a Tesla not knowing how they were going to pay for it. The corp tax cut of '17 wasn't enough. The 1% want more. We're #1 in recovery. Get ready.

Corporate greed at its finest! It continues on with gasoline, groceries, insurance, energy costs. Outrageous increases year after year. How much is enough?
