    Damn there is nothing the government can do. Sorry guys :( You’ll just have to buy less food, and maybe then the corporations will get the hint!

    Regulations? Laws against price gauging? Naw, they can’t do that. It’s the consumers that are at fault!

      Do you think Biden makes the laws? Did you fail civics class? I said nothing about enacting laws making what these companies are doing illegal, I only said Biden can’t do much about it.

        He can propose laws to the legislative bramch. He might not be able to pass it himself but he could push and advocate for it

          I’m sure the GOP-led house would be very receptive to that

            Oh what does it hurt then?

            Can’t say anything, because of the GOP.

            Super cool having a democrat president who’s got no balls. Can’t offend the house.
