Why was she not promoting an executive policy to lower grocery costs 2-3 yrs ago? She only cares to talk about doing something stupid like this idea if she gets elected to office. Why is she not pushing the current person acting as president to act on this issue now? Why the hell do the Anerican people have to wait another 6+ months to get some relief ? This woman is a clown.

We've needed price controls on groceries for a long time. Now we have someone who is going to do something about it. Do you guys like paying high prices for groceries or something?


Nah I much prefer the novel approach of “can’t be expensive if you can’t find it”.

Is this when they propose something unconstitutional and then blame republicans when they deliver the inevitable bad news that it’s illegal?

10 pages. Has someone actually been arguing for price controls?


Maybe two people.


The rest will take price controls if it meant no trump. They aren’t concerned about policy or anything like that. Just no more mean tweets.

1. Implement policies that make production costs sky-high
2. Arbitrarily decide companies can't raise prices
3. Assume control of the means of production

Don’t forget all the farm land that POS BIKK GATES has been buying up, as well
as the CCP & no telling how many “shell corporations” from the Globalist that are targeting our farmlands.

these sickos have been planning this for many years, and it’s all coming together just as they planned.

nope. She used language that’ll get people riled up . When she initiates an investigation on Publix , the findings will come back “no evidence of price gouging”.

It's hard as hell to think grocery stores are price gouging when they operate on a 3 percent or less profit margin. For this shite to work you'd have to place price controls all through the production, procurement and distribution chain.
Sad thing about is, the dumbasses will try if try get a chance.

I just saw that Vance nice called for a $5000 per child tax credit. Kamala copied and called for a $6000 tax credit...

For all but Canada we have at least a trillion dollar trade deficit.

You have a trade deficit with your favorite grocery store, with your barber, and with your internet provider. Do these worry you?

There is nothing wrong with a trade deficit.
