Anonymous wrote:Food and Grocery companies are not price gouging and aren't getting rich, the cost of these things have gone up. The only real price gouging is contractors doing work on houses of that is because of govt regulations subsidizing home repairs and renovations for energy savings. So it's short sighted to go after grocery stores when its deeper than that.

What do you want from her exactly? Trump hasn't said 2 words beyond, prices are up. Ok.

He’s talked repeatedly about fixing gas pipelines and bringing the US back to a place of energy independence and then energy dominance. Decreasing gas prices will naturally decrease the cost of goods across the board.

But this is all based on a lie, like everything else he says. The US is already energy independent. He wants to open national parks for drilling, which will only hurt the environment and help oil companies when we should be focusing on clean energy. It’s such bunk.

So what? That's the way the economy works.

If I'm a businesses, I'm going to raise my prices as high as I possibly can to maximize profits. Duh......it's as if Dems cannot understand basics business 101 and microeconomics 101. If I raise my prices too much, then consumers stop buying and my profits go down.

Why do companies keep raising prices? Because consumers keep paying! Why do consumers keep paying? Because they're flush with so much cash due to massive govt money printing and free cash handouts. This is literally inflation 101. It's hilarious how Dems cannot understand this..

The bolded us true. But then the GOP us calling it "inflation" when that isn't what it is. So she is trying to address that.

Address what? The free market economy?


Maybe she should address the trillions of dollars she and Biden printed that stoked inflation.

Jesus, Dems are so dimwitted. When you print and inject trillions of dollars into the economy, more money goes around. More money= more spending = more demand = higher prices. It's really that simple.

Remember, it was Biden who handed out a trillion in stimulus and another round stimi checks as soon as he got into office because the Dems were desperate to win the GA runoff. I still remember AOC going ballistic back in 2021 about handing out more stimi checks.

Gee, who'd have ever guessed they when you pump the economy with trillions of printed cash inflation goes up. But they wanna blame wide spread conspiracy theories that every single industry out there is colluding with one another to raise prices for consumers. Dems are a really low IQ.

Uh, the GA runoff happened before Biden took office.

You really have no idea what you are talking about.

Moments ago, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer congratulated Warnock and Ossoff, saying that “one of the first things” he wants to do as Senate Majority Leader is pass $2,000 stimulus checks.

And labor costs would spike, so it wouldn't bring the purchase price down.

Great, well let’s try it and see who is right.

Let's start with the illegals working on Trump properties.

(this is why it won't happen....it is all rhetoric to keep people like you angry)

So what happens when there are global supply chain disruptions? We had quite a few the last few years, and there are no signs of that changing anytime soon.
