    Eggs at the store I prefer are now back to their pre-gouging levels. Beef is still high but chicken and pork prices are now back to normal. Retailers have learned that when they increase prices the number of customers decrease. This is a lesson that has always existed but is always forgotten by retailers. Democrats tried to get Republicans to support hearings on price gouging but McCarthy said it wasn't necessary, a fact that must be pushed to voters this year!

    Again, although this is a good interview, it seems disingenuous to ask Sen. Warren to explain an excellent plan to rein in mega-corporation price gouging, then ask her to explain why tuition and university in total has become to drastically expensive. Those two things are apples and oranges, and they are complex. The history behind Reagan attacking and defunding the state university systems is legend, that is where this began as concerns universities. As to why the big Ivy League private universities, with massive endowments, are gouging is a whole different discussion as well. The defunding of our public school system and underpaying teachers is another. All are interconnected in some ways, of course, everything is. But gosh, I wish we could see smarter interviews. What is laudable here by Michael Steele and Alicia Menendez let Sen. Warren answer pretty fully, that was very interesting, it was informative reporting. Thank you!

    For those of you watching the Harris and Frump speeches, unlike what people on MSNBC and other outlets are saying, clamping down on price gouging does not equate to government enacting price controls. (the price controls is like what happened with rationing during WW2) It is an FTC-type issue. For example, when eggs were in short supply, prices went way up. When eggs came back to becoming more readily available, some stores kept their prices high. That is price gouging. There can be a mechanism put into place where if the percentage of profit on necessities (like food and toilet paper, for example, or anything that can be purchased via the SNAP program) is still priced to give the seller more than a very high (TBD by experts) percentage of profit, government fines can be levied.
    That is NOT the same as the government setting prices.
    What it will do is help those living in food deserts, where often the only source of milk or bread is from a gas station, where prices are set astronomically higher because the only other choice for people without cars in the neighborhood is take (often ridiculously inconvenient and sporadic) public transportation, to visit a big store where prices are set based on standard competition among other nearby stores.

    I’m a Harris supporter. I will say that they will need a cogent response when someone asks “Why didn’t the Biden administration crack down on price gouging 3 years ago?”
    BTW…I recall being on vacation in Puerto Rico in late December 2001 and listening to a drunk NYC trucking company owner boasting at a hotel bar about how much money he’d made charging “whatever he felt like” to truck debris from Ground Zero to Fresh Kills on Staten Island.
    Price gouging…it DOES happen!
    My perception of the inflation of the recent past was that it stemmed to a great extent from higher energy costs triggered by the Russian invasion of Ukraine as well as supply chain hangovers from COVID.
    Interestingly, increased necessary infrastructure work has caused a spike in equipment and construction materials costs. There are now multi-year lead times on critical large scale electrical transformers. I’m wondering if we need a national strategic reserve of industrial transformers. Companies are “making hay while the sun is shining”.

    I've only heard of people distancing themselves from negative people. While Kamala should be talking about her policy and views for direction for the country, she doesn't need to distance herself from Biden. I'd rather see Biden talk about the changes she wants to policy and for US growth and talk about how they show she will be a president for the people. Biden's negative was his age and his stepping aside showed what true leadership and patriotism are. Kamala can continue to be positive about Joe, to thank him (she's done it a lot) and he can continue to be positive about her and show support. A message of handing our great country over to a strong leader with a vision of growth and prosperity for all Americans. I think Biden setting aside his own ambitions and power is positively viewed by most of the country. Build on that. Biden started built the runway and Harris will launch us.

The savagery taking place in Gaza by the IDF, under Netanyahu’s direction, is so horrific, even Israelis & their media have been enormously more critical than Biden has been.

The Pandemic has been over for over 2 years.... "Supply Chain problems " & "Production Costs" are excuses that have worn very, very thin... And cutting "costs" by laying off employees is counter-productive to boosting your brand and is exploitation. Monopolies should be broken up, just like "The Big Bell" was.
