We vote people into power to take care of our interests. Allowing some unscrupulous opportunists to take advantage of a situation caused by a pandemic is taking care of the opportunists. What kind of freakin guvmint is that?

You do not understand that I don't give a **** about either side of the same coin that is destroying this country. They all need to go bye bye and we start over. It will never happen though. Bloody war and h*** lies in front of us all.

Price gouging? Everything has to be made , shipped , stored, put out for sale , watched , stolen or sold possibly re shipped. How many people have to make money for one product to get in your hands. AND everyone got a raise except seniors and the Biden administration says there's no inflation so very small COLA raise.

John Locke's quote can be slanted a hundred ways. Was not our property being taken away when Trump borrowed $8.7 trillion without consulting the citizens of the USA? A debt that I and millions of others will be paying toward the rest of our lives, as will our children and grandchildren

kammie the kommunist has had a rude awakening.
She is being trashed all over the place for her dumb policies. NY post headline is brutal.
And she only drew less than three hundred people in Raleigh.
Looks like the honeymoon is over.
Bet she didn;t expect to fall so far so fast .
Plus she has to watch tens of thousand line up for Trump In PA.
They will be working overtime to get illegal votes to count.
Bet on it. They stole the lst election and they are more d esperate this time.

This is an interesting one to me.
Foxy has complained about the post-COVID hyper inflation, which we now know was, in part, caused by manufacturers and retailers price gouging. The Biden administration tried to pass a bill to allow the President to declare a national state of emergency that would have let him enforce price gouging, but the GOP shot it down.
Now, Kamala is presenting a similar plan... and Fox declares it to be Communist.
Which is it? Do you want them to be allowed to price gouge and cause hyper inflation, or do you want the government to prevent it? I don't see how you can have it both ways...

Did Kackles say she was going to target retail stores? I must have missed that. What she needs to do is target the middlemen! The farmer does not get paid all that much for milk. The retail store does not make a great profit from it. So why is the price to the consumer as high as it is? The middleman! And this applies to most retail goods. The last time I recall controls being employed was to combat a republican generated recession, wage controls were imposed but not price controls. So, I have to ask you righties that condemn every fiscal proposal that might benefit the middle and working classes as communism: Wadya call Tricky Ickey's remedy? Could it be that's the way to go, freeze wages?

Gary Miller, two of the three COVID bills (those supposed handouts you mentioned) have trumps signature on them. So who was it that was all about giving "free" money away. By the way the pittance of those stimulus checks was far less than the handouts the corporations got. But im sure that little nugget has nothing to do with inflation or anything since it was trump and nothing he ever did was ever wrong.
The most perfect human there ever way, aint that right gary miller?

Heard someone say this morning that prices are up due to taxes. Their company 's taxes doubled. So who will pay that? Consumers!!
Grocery stores make the least amount of profit than other businesses. Harris needs to learn something about economics before running her mouth.

She has no Ian only words of how she is going to lower prices by doing the very things that raise prices. If she wants to lower food prices she will do everything possible to produce energy and reduce fuel and electricity prices. Reduce transportation costs. Reduce regulations

Based on your posts, U thought you thought prices were already controlled by government. Wasn't that the reason you blamed Biden?

Consul, I will type slow. In order for the government to work, you have to have people working to pay taxes. You might have forgot put Democrat governors thought they were kings and wouldn't let people work, go to school, or the gym. Now congress kept handing out free money, free rent, and free food. It was the democrats favorite fantasy come to life, people depending on the government. Biden claimed he had a plan. The plan was putting people back to work and then take credit for doing nothing. That's why more people died from Covid under him than Trump. It was a prime example of democrat policies. California and New York were running up deficits and running off people. Those two states are the bastions of liberalism and even democrats can't stand it. So vote for Kamala, watch companies close, corporations leave the country, unemployment go to double digits if not already there, banks belly up, the draft come back for sons and daughters because they can't people enlisted because of wokeism, no longer the United States because there is no borders, social security cuts, and still high inflation. Whatever any candidate promise, there is no money period. Not even got to foreign affairs which is even scarier or weird if you prefer.

I 100% support Harris after today's speech. We have never had a president strong enough to go after the Girl Scouts for price gouging on thin mints. We di need government oversight to control their profits and to keep me stocked

No, but you seem to want the government to control everything like oil, groceries, cars, cooking oil, car insurance, housing, and so on.
That hateful foxnose sure is confused on what it posts.

When Trump threw the economy into a tailspin and then borrowed $8.7 trillion to offset his profligacy, was that communism? Sleepy Joe has spent nearly four years trying to dig out of that debacle!
