Stronger FCC regulation? FCC regulation with tiger thews, talons and fangs is more like it. But probably that's what you mean. A believer in British understatement eh?
American companies are enjoying a 14 percent profit margin . . . Inflation is real
It's annoying as hell that more people don't realize that every time the press starts screaming "inflation" businesses see that as an opportunity to jack up prices and improve their profit margins. Of course there's inflation when companies are averaging a 14% profit margin.
Over here in the Other Washington gas prices are varying from $3.69 to $4.29, sometimes within a half mile of each other. I've never seen a price spread like this that I can remember.
Plus, as I saw someone point out (might have been Bernie, might have been Robert Reich, might have been Warren), the fact that so much has been concentrated into a handful of corporations means that if one of them raises prices, it has a huge impact. And it makes it easier for them to coordinate their increases so that everyone (on their boards) sees their profits go up.
Actually all of them have pointed out that mega corps with little to no competition have created supply shortages and used the excuse to increase profits

I assume if they’re reporting 47k cases the reality is closer to 80k
He’s been a complete buffoon pretty much his entire career.

Need to give the SEC its teeth back
“ Does Politico bear any responsibility for the malaise Americans feel about one of the best economies in a generation?
