Thanks to hundreds of mergers over the last 50 years, just four grocery chains control ~72% of sales in U.S. cities & in grocery categories—like bread, pasta, beef, cereal—4 companies control more than 60% of the market. We need more competition & to crack down on price gouging.

It's too bad overregulation forced out local grocery stores and led to the need to merge into large-scale grocery companies.
Your solution is further regulation?

Keep on raising taxes and legislating unfair regulations on small mom and pops while you give big corporate tax breaks. That will do the trick! You're freaking awesome.😀

Did it ever occur to you that YOUR GOVERNMENT OVER REGULATIONS probably caused the problem in the first place?

Due to 50 years of corruption and greed we have a government that continues to take from the people while they all get wealthier. We need younger people with new ideas and regulations on congress and the senate regarding trading and lobbying .
