Turkeys are too expensive says Elizabeth Warren. However, instead of focusing on WHY the cost of a turkey and all the trimmings has gone up, she wants to go after the turkey producers. Yup. Turkeys, potatoes, lettuce - you name it; they've all gone up in price at the grocery check-out. I doubt that she's ever set foot inside a grocery store. It's just easier to blame corporations. https://victorygirlsblog.com/elizabeth-warren-blames-turkeys-for-inflation-woes/
U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren on Monday called on the Justice Department to open a broad investigation on the impact of price- fixing and consolidation in the poultry sector on consumers and farmers.
The former Democratic presidential candidate also urged the department’s Antitrust Division to review “with suspicion” any large mergers in the industry, after Cargill Inc and Continental Grain said in August they would buy chicken company Sanderson Farms (SAFM.O) for $4.53 billion.
Warren said in a letter that consumers are paying higher prices because of excessive consolidation, price-fixing and “plain-old corporate greed.”
