Why are food companies allowed to keep their profit margins the same during a crisis?
In war times, some countries shut all manufacturing down in order to help the govt with war efforts. All that is needed during economic war times to protect consumers is to limit profit for certain companies during crisis.
The rising food prices are unnecessarily high and will get unnecessarily higher just because the food companies want to keep their profit margins high. They should be regulated during these times |

Joe Biden caused this "crisis" and Joe Biden could end it. But he won't. He will destroy the Democrat Party (and severely hurt the U.S.) defending the Green New Deal. Just don't make anything up. |

Same story, different crash. Occupy Wall Street was a big thing during theast crash. Everything the market does what it does, everyone things people making a profit are bad. When times are good, those profits increasing your 401k or your stocks are just fine.
Economic troubles ALWAYS bring civil upheavel. Same story, different day. |

One of them could be to force prices of goods to be as low as possible because the companies who produce them do not need to maintain a 20-25% profit margin just because they're ok with entire countries paying 3x the price for goods.
It should not be allowed in economic crisis times. |
