There is no doubt that corporate price gouging is a problem insofar that it’s driving inflation.
In this case I would point out that Walmart has competitors, e.g., Costco. a company that has a policy of basing prices on costs. If I’m not mistaken, Costco makes a 14% margin on everything in its stores. If its costs don’t rise, neither do its prices.
Also, ask yourself why you want to support an organization owned by the wealthiest family on Earth that treats its employees so poorly.
Simply shop elsewhere.
I’ve never understood why those who compose total bullshit like this don’t go for the gusto. Why 95% and not 99% or 100%?
Trump’s actual approval rating among Republicans is somewhere between 75% and 80%, as can be easily verified by anyone on Earth with a cell phone or computer. That number continues to dwindle, as he faces more pressure regarding the war, gas prices, child rape, etc.
Obviously, the president’s supporters are suckers for his lies, but isn’t this a bit over the top?
I get a call every week or so from someone working for a start-up in oil exploration, hoping that I’ll invest. I guess my name and cell number got collected somehow from various online searches I’ve made.
I’m always quick to explain, “Oh, sorry, I don’t support wrecking the planet, even if I can profit from it. Neither should you. Bye now.”
I wish this were true, but most of these people don’t have passports, and many of them can’t afford to bus ticket to a neighboring county in West Virginia, Alabama, etc.
Wish There Were Better News, but Trump Supporters Aren’t Leaving
