The Biden administration has beef with Big Meat.

The White House this week slammed the four biggest companies in the meat industry, accusing them of “raising prices while generating record profits during the pandemic” and blaming them for soaring price inflation at grocery stores across the country....

...Tyson Foods, which sells beef, pork and chicken, fired back at the White House, calling its allegations “inaccurate.”

In a statement, Tyson said the meat industry has suffered from multiple market shocks due to “a global pandemic and severe weather conditions” that have knocked supply and demand throughout the industry....

Next stop - price controls, and then massive shortages.

Then they’ll introduce protein bars made from insects.

Big meat isn’t totally blameless.

That big slab sitting on the chair behind the desk in the
Oval Office certainly deserves some credit for this mess.

Right it has nothing to do with the Biden Democrats creating a deliberate 75% inflation of fuel prices plus out of control inflation across the board on everything caused reckless out of control government spending.

NO it all the “wreckers and saboteurs” fault

The propaganda from this clown show is stright out of Stalinist Russia

Sounds exactly like Hugo Chavez blaming oil companies for high prices, right before he nationalized them, ensuring that there would be both high prices and no supply.

No that a lie told to devflet attention from where it belongs

75% increase if fuel prices effect every step of the supply chain. Dumping trillions into the economy to shore up the Democrat’s regime by the Fed means more money pumped artificially into the economy at the same time kinks in the supply chain are choking the flow of goods

More money chasing fewer goods results in inflation. This is economics 101. It has everything to do with stupid government policy.

We should look across the landscape: Big Bread, Big Noodles, Big Orange Juice, Big Beer, Big Apples, Big Muffins, Big Soda, Big Cat Food, Big Bean Dip, and Big Coffee.

Yes. I believe so. It’s easy to make that presumption about the Biden’s. They don’t seem too concerned about other folks personal boundaries.

Fascism. Its socialists that keep a veneer of capitalism around. When the economy is good the socialist leaders tske the praise capitalism really earns despite the socialists. When the economy is bad then the socialists bla,e the capitalists for their failing, economy-crippling policies.
