Now we finally get to hear some of her policy and it's straight up Communism. She actually wants to put food under price controls which is a disaster and the last move of despots when they have wrecked economies.

Who is ready for food lines when the farmers can't make a profit?

Yeah, it was October 2016 the 'grab em by the pussy' tape went public, and E Jean Carroll suddenly remembers that Trump grabbed her by the pussy.... but not what year. It was either late 1995 or early 1996.

Does it really matter what year?
You must say you believe her or you might as well have raped her yourself.

These hashtags are so crude even for me…Why would use them when you think that Carroll is a victim of rape….

*Black
*Women
*Work in NYC & Live nearby.
Its practically a statistical certainty.

And you calling me racist, when you've been one of - if the biggest - supporters if DEI in the Warrom, is rich.

Clutching your pearls over the #Believeallwomen hashtag?

Be honest, you wish you'd got grabbed by the pussy if it led to a $80+ million payout, even if the person that grabbed your pussy had to pay it.

Uh yeah, people can grow up in the same area and have the same skin color+gender. They still won’t all think the same. Saying that it’s statistical certainty that they do is indeed racist. Way to double down on your racism.

I’m indifferent to DEI. I don’t have it as a ready made excuse for myself if things don’t go the way that I want it to in life.

The Real Root of High Food Prices: Corporate Greed and Consolidation

While families face climbing food prices, corporations rake in more profits. Biden has started to address this; he can and must go further.

No, its been plainly more obvious that Democrats support any means to the ends that are in advantage to their party.

ALL of the appeal court judges are -
*Black
*Female
*Live in/close to NYC.
-Which means there's a 99% chance they're Democrats, all of them.

And judges commonly socialize with politicans, and politicians with judges. People with power commonly associate with other powerful people.

Oh, please, tell me more about the evils of installing partisan judges....

I was going to make a snarky comment. But Jesus Christ, you are a piece of shit. if you know anyone that has gotten raped, you wouldn’t say something that despicable. Rape is the worst crime that a person could commit to another human being…

I didn't say they all think the same. That would be racist.
I said given their race, sex, location, and position and education all equated a statistical certainty they're all Democrats, that they're all members of the same political party.

You can call it racism all you like, which is also the first reaction to most inconvenient facts contrary the liberal delusional mindset, but it doesn't make it true.

When your opponent calls you ‘communist,’ maybe don’t propose price controls?
It’s hard to exaggerate how bad Kamala Harris’s price-gouging proposal is.

"Price gouging” is the focus of Vice President Kamala Harris’s economic agenda, her presidential campaign says. She’ll crack down on “excessive prices” and “excessive corporate profits,” particularly for groceries.

So what level counts as “excessive,” you might ask? TBD, but Harris will ban it.

That’s the thing about price gouging: As has been said of hardcore pornography, you know it when you see it.

It’s not hard to figure out where this proposal came from. Voters want to blame someone for high grocery bills, and the presidential candidates have apparently decided the choices are either the Biden administration or corporate greed. Harris has chosen the latter.

In a news release Wednesday, her campaign said the first 100 days of her presidency would include the “first-ever federal ban on price gouging on food and groceries — setting clear rules of the road to make clear that big corporations can’t unfairly exploit consumers to run up excessive corporate profits on food and groceries.”

What are these “clear rules of the road” or the thresholds that determine when a price or profit level becomes “excessive”? The memo doesn’t say, and the campaign did not answer questions I sent seeking clarification.

The most likely template for Harris’s proposal is a recent bill from Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). (Harris co-sponsored similar legislation with Warren in 2020, when Harris was a senator.) Warren’s bill would ban any “grossly excessive price” during any “atypical disruption” of a market. Alas, no definition was provided for these terms, either; rather, the bill would empower the Federal Trade Commission to enforce bans using any metric it deems appropriate.

It’s hard to exaggerate how bad this policy is. It is, in all but name, a sweeping set of government-enforced price controls across every industry, not only food. Supply and demand would no longer determine prices or profit levels. Far-off Washington bureaucrats would. The FTC would be able to tell, say, a Kroger in Ohio the acceptable price it can charge for milk.

At best, this would lead to shortages, black markets and hoarding, among other distortions seen previous times countries tried to limit price growth by fiat. (There’s a reason narrower “price gouging” laws that exist in some U.S. states are rarely invoked.) At worst, it might accidentally raise prices.

That’s because, among other things, the legislation would ban companies from offering lower prices to a big customer such as Costco than to Joe’s Corner Store, which means quantity discounts are in trouble. Worse, it would require public companies to publish detailed internal data about costs, margins, contracts and their future pricing strategies. Posting cost and pricing plans publicly is a fantastic way for companies to collude to keep prices higher — all facilitated by the government.

You know Kamala Harris's policy is bad if the Washington post is criticizing it.

Companies are making record profits, while many Americans that rely on those goods and services are struggling.
The Democrats propose a solution, but the Republicans scream communism.
Well, what policies have the right offered to combat the rising price of goods?
