‘We’ve Seen This Tried in Venezuela, Argentina, the Soviet Union’ – CNN Turns on Kamala Harris, DESTROYS Her Dangerous Price Control Scheme (VIDEO)

CNN destroyed Kamala Harris’s Soviet-style price controls proposal and said it would lead to higher prices and shortages.

Kamala Harris traveled to North Carolina on Friday to announce a Communist-style price control scheme to combat the inflation crisis she created.

Harris cast the tie-breaking vote on the so-called ‘Inflation Reduction Act.’ The IRA made inflation unbearable for Americans.

Food prices are skyrocketing because of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Biden recently turned his ire toward grocers and said he is going to send state attorneys general after them for price gouging.

Grocers are not price gouging. The annual profits for grocers right now are 1.2% compared to the all-industry average of 8.5%!

Kamala Harris's campaign claims grocery stores are price-gauging, but they're not. If they were, their annual profits wouldn't be just 1.2% when the all-industry average is 8.5%. The media will likely hide those numbers tomorrow when they fluff Harris' proposal. https://t.co/55oAOsxl1L pic.twitter.com/ysrV5Fa0SM

Harris proposed dangerous price controls during a campaign speech to a paltry crowd at Wake Tech Community College in Raleigh, North Carolina.

Vice President Kamala Harris is speaking at Wake Tech Community College in Raleigh today. She’s set to address lowering costs for American families via housing, medical costs, grocery prices, and child tax credits. More to come @NCNewsline #ncpol pic.twitter.com/dZGgGBvEZd

Back in 1980, Canada’s interest rates shot up to 30% when Truesh*t sr. tried doing price controls.

Deep State may be about to take out Harris - I think she might not make it out of the Dem convention.

A double-coup? Maybe.

Hmmmmm, I wonder what’s up with that?

There has to be a reason that CNN is turning on her.

I wonder if it has to do with the DNC and its selection for the dem voters of who they have no choice of to represent their party in the presidential election.

FIRST full time job was at Kroger DIVISIONAL offices in Madison Wis.

worked at other grocery chains later in life.

NEVER HAVE SEEN profits of 8.5%.

ONLY around 1.5 1.6 or so.

In those days, FREE SHOPLIFTING allowed by the various legislatures wasn’t happening, either.

I think this proves that The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate is really all about stealing tax money for The Democrat Party Crime Families.

Kamala’s proposals will not cause shortages or any other problems because “....it’s different when we do it...”

Price controls really do work. For about a month or so. That’s when the producer to consumer pipeline starts to run dry. Then food is still cheap. Except there is no food.

I think CNN may turn on her because she is not talking to the “press”.

No one likes to be taken for granted.

Hmmm... maybe earlier this week when the audience laughed at Colbert's suggestion CNN was unbiased (it wasn't intended to be a joke), it got management thinking at CNN about their reputation.

Nah, doubt it. But this criticism is shocking.

That’s a great, great, ad. Very simple and direct. She states the facts in her own word for what happened on her watch. Whatever excuse she uses, such as grocery store price gauging, is irrelevant because the problem exists and has not been addressed. Terrific ad and quite funny because it catches you off guard so quickly. Love it.
