a term I coined in this group nearly 25 years ago. We are not longer dealing with Inflation (the rate of price increases) but of select corporations forming quasi monopolies and after their supply chain costs have long since settled conspire to - what the hell - keep prices high, fatten up the bottom line and let citizens and consumers blame "inflation". There are some 5-6 complanies that control produce and distribute nearly all of the products in the grocery store. We are long-overdue for a good old Trust Buster like Teddy Roosevelt. And your Trump only wants to be ensure that these corporations scamming the public pay as little to support the nation as possible through lower and lower tax rates. You're gonna lose.
