[quote:Myron Goldblatt 16674316:MV8xOTk3ODM3XzMzNTU5MDc2XzMwMzUzNzM5] [quote:samanthasunflower:MV8xOTk3ODM3XzMzNTU4OTMxXzdENTAzQjc0] It's not the chain stores, it's the rising commodity and gasoline prices. [/quote] You have to be joking. Those prices are manipulated totally by the Fat Cats. Haven't you ever noticed how the Petroleum Industry Fat Cats jack the price of Gasoine up all across the nation when they have a trash can fire at a refinery? It can be a section of a refinery that makes kerosine, but the price of Gasoline will skyrocket. In ninty percent of the cases, there is no correlation between the fire and the massive increase in Gasoline. I check commodity prices every trading day. The slight rise in commodity prices in no way equates to the rise in the price of food. Remember, it is the chain stores that are ripping off the consumer. In areas were the chain stores are still trying to exert their dominance, the prices are low. Look at San Diego where the Asian markets are undercutting the Big Chain stores. There, the prices are not any higher than they were several years ago. [/quote]
Original Message
Once the large chain stores have driven the smaller stores out of business they can then raise the prices on food items so that they see a 300% to 500% markup on food.
The Rich Fat Cats who own the Chain Stores are making millions of dollars every year, and you can be certain that they are using every tax loop hole ever set up by our corrupt congress to maximize their profit.
The Fat Cats are not in it for humanity. They are in it for theirselves. Their attitude is "Fug You! if you do not like their constantly rising prices."
It has almost gotten to the point that we need to start throwing rocks through windows. The American Middle Class is systematically being destroyed by the Untra Rich Money Scammers in our Republic. What should we call them? Republiscams?
