    Because we fought a war over it and made it illegal. And previously it was assumed price increases would drive customers away. But the monopoly power of corporations like Kroger’s had gone further than anyone thought.

      Sorry, what are you talking about? What “war”? What was made illegal?

            If you’re going to post so many comments, at least read the chain. Otherwise someone might mistake you for a troll.

              I mean I am the chain, I’m asking you what the fuck you’re talking about and you’re really bad at having clear ideas

                Oh, perfect recall then? In that case you know exactly where in your line of 5 year old style questioning that slavery was mentioned.

                  Socratic questioning goes back a lot longer than 5 years, stupid

                    That is not the Socratic method. Questioning how the CEO of a corporation has control over pricing is just trolling.
