Kamala Harris to reveal controversial plan to bring down food prices as her first major policy... and here's what it could mean for YOUKamala Harris wants to take aim at rising food costs and price-gouging as she starts to lay out her own economic priorities and set herself apart from the Biden administration if she win the White House in November. The vice president heads to North Carolina on Friday to deliver her first address focused on the economy policy nearly a month after jumping into the presidential race with President Biden's exit. In one of her first economic proposals as Democratic presidential nominee, Harris plans to call for the first ever federal ban on corporate price-gouging, her campaign said. During her visit to Raleigh, Harris will announce her plan to enact the ban during her first 100 days in office in her effort to address grocery costs as inflation has persisted throughout much of the past four years under the Biden administration. While it is not exactly clear how the proposal would be enforced, the campaign said in its release that the plan would 'set clear rules' so corporations 'can't unfairly exploit consumers.' www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13746879/kamala-harris-economic-plan-food-prices-2024-election.htmlShe's already in office why not now?

Really kind of irrelevant…
Harris voters are a cult…..they will swallow whatever lie she serves up..
Speaking of swallowing…..I wonder who Sugar had to do to get the nomination?

Can anyone define gouging? You charge more money than people want to pay? Don't you know cost should be fluid and based on what the person wants to pay.

Harris to propose federal ban on ‘corporate price-gouging’ in food and groceries
"Vice President Kamala Harris will propose the first-ever federal ban on “corporate price-gouging” in the food industry, her campaign announced. Harris will also pledge that if elected, she will direct the Justice Department to increase scrutiny of potential mergers between grocers and food producers. The ban is part of a broader effort by the Democratic presidential nominee to respond to voters’ ongoing frustration with the high cost of meat and groceries. "
You think a Republican would ever try that? They're too busy with their culture wars and tax cuts for the wealthy. Republicans suck. Magats suck even worse.

Harris has issued a statement today that she will set price controls on things like food. How many stores will she drive out of business? What stores will be next? Can you say Communism?

Did Sugar explain the equation that will be used to determine which products and corporations are involved in “gouging”?
