Kroger is wasting no time price-gouging

[dlk]

A half gallon of organic, whole milk is $1.50 per carton more than it was a few days ago.

1. They are greedy as hell. They charge more for soymilk than Whole Foods aka

Whole Paycheck.

No matter - EVERYTHING will be going up thanks to SHitler and his asinine tariffs.

2. That store is more expensive than Whole Foods

more often than not.

Try Sprouts, Costco or Trader Joe’s.

3. My local Costco has been out of the regular, organic whole milk for some time

They only have a more expensive, ultra pasteurized variety. Also, Kroger didn’t have any organic orange juice like they usually do, and organic oranges are more difficult to find at anywhere.

Going forward, I’ll definitely do more detailed price comparisons before going grocery shopping.

4. A lot of dairy herds are quarantined

because they are infected with bird flu. Kern County oranges, it has been reported, are rotting on the vine thanks to the GOP’s round up of people just trying to put in an extremely difficult day’s work without the required paperwork.

Unfortunately, the GOP war on science and work is not going to end anytime soon. I wish i had better news!

8. Unfortunately, I think there will be more shortages to come

11. And lots of unnecessary drama

So GOP cronies can price fix.

5. Not price gouging...

Responding in time to the increases in prices from the Trump Administrations policies.

Need to buy the Trump "I did that" stickers.

[dlk]

10. The price increase was before the tariffs were announced or put in place

If that’s not price gouging, what is?

6. Same thing they did the last time

The CEO said they contribute to the republicans. Republicans always cause inflation and it makes maximum profits for them.

7. Good

If grocery prices are all Americans care about, then it is all we can rely on to sway public opinion

9. The merchants are going to give to the majority of US voters what they voted for.

When all the prices go up and gasoline goes 25% higher maybe they will understand what a tariff is?
