What stunning observational powers they have over there at the FTC. Too bad they don’t have any teeth because the government doesn’t fund them even close to adequately.
I love all the headlines that declare [report about thing you already figured out years ago] was in fact true, like it’s a fucking surprise. Some would say it’s good to have corroborating data, but it never seems to help and I’m just exhausted being right so dammed often.
Is this even news, ofc they did, give them an inch and they always take a mile, war, recessions and sickness are always a profiteering venture for business.
See, it’s very simple. You create a massive monopoly/duopoly/triopoly, to undercut, out compete and otherwise dominate small businesses, until they’ve been fazed out… then once it’s only you, and you decide the pricing, then you start screwing around with prices while politicians twiddle their thumbs.
… you can’t seriously build a system that is meant to take advantage of every situation, praise if for taking advantage of every situation, align it’s interests in taking advantage of every situation and then be surprised it took advantage of a situation. We should be better than Pikachu.
