She can call for world peace and pledge sanctions against warring factions but it’s just blow hard foolishness from a wannabe politician leader. She was the deciding vote on those massive money printing debacles and it is the massive printed dollars that causes the dollar to be worth less. Trump predicted this, along with the wars. No matter the vote and given the tens of millions of illegal that have entered- many who are seasoned warriors- we’ll be of fire by this time next year. Minus a Trump wave and bloody crackdowns on the Muh protests.

Which is why I am so glad POTUS Trump has been quiet. He knows they will self destruct.

This is not your grandparents election. Policies do not impact elections like they used to…it’s a superficial popularity contest.

Medical care is expensive because I have to pay for my family and the family who watches judge shows all day instead of working.

This is going to happen to food prices if they implement price controls.

1. Independent and stores with greater costs such as security and high theft rates will not be profitable and will close.

2. Food deserts in urban neighborhoods servicing democrats.

3. Federal Government will now operate grocery stores in urban areas giving reduced prices to urban areas, and to balance the cost a new food tax will be added when I buy my groceries in the suburbs.

This is under wage and price controls. I don't think working one side is effective and most likely damaging.

That's not why your medical care is expensive. It's so much more complicated....and the hospitals and insurance companies would like to keep it that way along with the AMA.

So we can join the other great command economies like, Burma, Bolivia, Tirmenestan, Congo, Sudan, Ethiopia , Zimbabwe, N Korea and Chyna.

All but one of,these is a 3rd world country and for Chyna’s part a great majority of it is still a 3rd world country..

The only reason to leak this is to find out how it plays and then decide whether to do it or not.

Her campaign staff is apparently comprised of the least intelligent, competent, and creative people available inside the beltway.

Oof.

They will believe that Kamala is preventing inflation with this BS maneuver.

The Wal Mart heirs, particularly Alice, are now too "ate up" with TDS. They're a lost cause.

To be clear, they aren't making 3 cent profits. These pieces of filth are absolutely price gouging and using the bidenomics excuse. That's also Joe's fault for giving them an excuse. They all suck. That said, this is a stupid idea. Just want to point out these companies and greedy filth draining America.

Profit margins for many grocery stores is 3 percent or less.
Business has been affected by inflation as well.
Cost of goods sold, labor, transportation, insurance, rent and everything else
it takes to operat a business has gone up.

Will any MSM ask where this price gouging is happening? What products in the grocery store is being price gouged? Maybe follow the supply chain and tell us where the price is being gouged.

Kamala and Democrats always have to create a boogey man that is out to screw voters because if they do not create this boogey man then the Democrats are exposed and being the real Boogeyman.

4. You'll end up with two tiers of stores- one for the party and its allies, one for everybody else.

To be fair, Trump is proposing across the board tariffs. Both ideas are economically foolish.
