  • It won't though because supply and demand are not equal countervailing forces, all of supply is controlled by a literal handful of agribusiness conglomerates. The ranchers themselves are being squeezed for decades now, the three large Meat Packing houses on the other hand are making money hand over fist.

    Prices are high because of price fixing, because of illegal trusts that the government has not enforced for decades. It worked with eggs, as long as they have someone to blame it on.

  • If we had a strong reform minded government, our leaders could oppose these parasites, and then make examples out of those that mistreat our productive companies. Like which of these private Equity douchebags can't be hit with a crime for something or another? Not a single one, you can get everyone with the tax evasion charges.

    We need leaders that protect us from these monied parasites.

  • I read something about the birth of these private Equity firms sometime in the late 70s or early '80s when a firm bought out this other productive firm and loaded them up with debt, paid themselves every which way they could, sold off any profitable parts of the company, then declared bankruptcy and stiffed everybody else walking away with a boatload of cash, unemployed workforces, and razed Pension funds.

    We have been celebrating this type of behavior for decades now, Behavior I think exemplified in Monty Python's skits of the pirate building seizing the other buildings like it was a pirate ship.

  • What gave it away? Did 25 year long quest to invalidate elections they don't win? The denial they did lose an election? Or was it the false accusations projecting what they are doing onto the opposition? Or was it the literal coup attempt where they tried to take Congress hostage and force it to sign over the republic?

    The author must be a sharp one!

  • It is probably the biggest public health problem, and each instance is just to save a buck at the expense of premature deaths and chronic health problems.

    It will be getting a whole lot worse here the rules are gone, ignored, changed, flouted.
