    This is why inflation is so high. Holy fuck, like I’m the biggest moron ever, and even I can figure it out. I find it hilarious that government’s and experts or whatever keep talking about wrangling inflation, and it’s like well crack down on this shit, hard, and create consumer protections. Also shut down the debt sundae, and create actual standards and challenges to borrow money, and quit lending to Welfare Wally so he can finance his Sonata over 96 months with zero down.

      For real. I genuinely can’t believe how bad the monopolies/oligopolies are in Canada. Soon we’ll have RoBelUs opening up a “competitor” grocery chain, and maybe a Loblaws telecom. Then we can really feel the burn.
