Regardless of whether it’s the producer or someone else along the supply chain, the prices are able to stay up because the consumer will pay the increase price. At the source or not, that’s my only point

It’s not even necessarily unfucking either. When distributors and producers learn a new higher price consumers will pay, it’s very easy for them to default to that price. They can just increase prices to match what it was with tariffs and nothing changes except more profit for the producers. We consumers wouldn’t even realize it since we’re so far removed from the source.

Yep, this has been my own argument for many years. I believe that if you ban lobbying alone, the rest will cascade.

It’s entirely satirical.

Well-written and surprisingly thoughtful commentary given the heat so far
