She is demonizing an industry that doesn't deserve to be. but grocery stores are where people are most visibly seeing the inflation disaster and so she thinks she can play the whole greedy capitalism nonsense angle.
youre probably right that it appeals to her voters... But that is also very telling

Is it really that telling? Monopolization is an actual issue that affects many voters, and many of the mega corporations don’t exactly endear themselves to the public in many cases. It’s unlikely that a significant number of voters would have even a cursory knowledge of the profit margins of the grocery industry, but they do see the price jumps and how it affects them. That’s why it annoys me that Warren would take this position. She’s preying on an obvious pain point and assuming that voters aren’t magically subject matter experts on the costs incurred by grocery stores. I think it says more about her than the voters, as most people just don’t have the time to research the subject.
God bless anyone in the grocery store business. Every time I walk through one, I’m almost shocked they exist, lol.

I’d have to question the new cars line. They are as much as 20% more than 99-2000

Just a nice little thing because the lecturer always said he was an imbecile.
Good thing us deplorables know where to get real news and secure our finances.

We just bought one. My guess is that this chart is using MSRP to calculate the prices, and that is going to make it far too low. We went to one of a very few dealerships in the metro that was claiming to sell at MSRP. They still tried to tack on $6k worth of dealer installed nonsense. We fought hard just to get out at the sticker price. New car buying is a nightmare for the consumer right now.

Friend of mine owns a bar. He only has 60% of the staff he needs/used to have, so he is relying on those staff to fill the void. His margins are less than 3% so he can't afford to raise pay more than he already has without raising prices. Last time he rose prices, overall sales fell.
He fully admits he's working his current staff more than he wishes but can't operate the place without doing so. He keeps interviewing people to join, offering $14 hr, and nobody wants to work.
He knows this is unsustainable and probably understands his business is in trouble. He has to decide whether to invest in marketing/promotions, or staff.
Goodness gracious.

yeah, there's a lot of turnover in that industry and only gotten worse cause of how awful the general public is. it's just not worth putting up with these days with the most entitled of entitled ****sticks that think putting a mask on if the place says that's the rule etc is tyranny
if you have friends in that industry, the bull**** they put up with from the general public is astounding. you should talk to them about it
