    Ah yes, it is Sunday. You probably let a car pull out today. Mighty Christian of you.

    Except for bearing false witness you are a good person today.

    Well, well no surprise you are again intimidated by a better educated woman who happens to be mixed race as well. This is to be expected from you dummy. You're the kind of kid any mother ( or sister, aunt ) grows to wonder what the hell happened to you. It just isn't cool to spout racism as an election strategy. Nor should it be cool here no matter what dimwits like you think. The woman bashing doesn't pass either.

    She went to an undergraduate school that is dumbed down for blacks and a second-rate law school as an affirmative action admit. Nothing well-educated about her. Walz is even worse, though.

    So you don't have any examples of "food monopolies" do you.

  8. I heard that Kamala is going to have an abortion live at the DNC to appeal to her base.

    I could be wrong.

    An abortion is considered to be "healthcare." Healthcare for the baby? Not so much.

    I guess, according to lefty doctrine which "follows science," men can have abortions too.

    Oh come now, you are a CFO aren't you? Are you really going to asking me to provide evidence that brand consolidation is bringing with it the inevitable? Prices and profits are both up for several major corps?

    In Canada, France, and South Korea there are laws against food monopolies, price gouging, and shrinkflation, especially during a time of National Crisis.
    • Canada - The Competition Act now expressly includes as an anti-competitive act “directly or indirectly imposing excessive and unfair selling prices.”
    • France - The French Criminal Code (Code pénal) banned coalitions from manipulating prices “above or below the level that would have been determined by free and natural competition”.
    The United States is far behind other countries in controlling consumer food prices during a National Crisis and when there's a need to control inflation that drive many Americans into poverty.

    In addition, Americans residing near the Canada/USA border in the northern states will often drive to Canada to do their shopping because the cost of goods is much cheaper than U.S. grocery stores. The same reason is true for the cost of medicine....much cheaper in Canada for the same medicine purchased in the U.S.

    Yet, we want the world to believe we're the leader of a free world. A statement I now view as propaganda considering our standards are far below other countries with less resources. :(

    Also, a different spin on monopolies and collusion, for at least a decade after the government completed it's investigation...banks colluded for at least a decade to manipulate exchange rates on the forex market for their own financial gain.

    They controlled by colluding a 4 trillion dollar per day financial market that cost forex traders billions of dollars in losses.

    The investigation revealed during court trials that currency dealers said they had been front-running client orders and rigging the foreign exchange benchmark WM/Reuters rates by colluding with counterparts and pushing through trades before and during the 60-second windows when the benchmark rates are set.

    The behavior occurred daily in the spot foreign-exchange market and went on for at least a decade according to currency traders.​
