Price gouging, or price fixing for your corporate buddies?
In reality the idea that Kamala is tossing around about stopping price gouging by price fixing is yet another hidden agenda.
To understand let’s take a trip back in time to the days of Jimmy Carter when the price of gas just quadrupled, and they decided to put the price fix on milk. This destroyed the small farmers many like my family farm that was multi generational. The farm was like part of the family, and my great,great grandfather was buried there.
Fixing the price served the corporate farms well as they were the only farms that had buying power to keep their costs down.
This is exactly why it was done to eliminate the competition for the corporate farms. This is the same reason why Kamala is preparing to serve her oligarch friends yet another win . Hell they just got through shutting down all the small businesses, churches, and mom & pop shops while they gave essential statuses to their criminal friends, and corporate donors.
To do this sounds like it would help people, however it will only hurt small businesses, and mom&pop shops . The big box stores will set that ( low price) as they are the only businesses with the buyers power that could survive price fixing. I can guarantee you that all the mom & pop shops can’t survive a law that prevents them from being profitable. Kamala’s corporate donors ( big box stores) are exactly who will set the price. They know that even if they take a small loss of profits for a year or two they will come back after the small mom & pops are destroyed, and set those prices anyway they want. That is when the price gouging will really hit is after they destroy our mom & pops!
