Barnicle: Grocery prices: “biggest crippler for American families”

“Grocery prices I think are the biggest crippler for American families, and they haven’t come down a whole lot. They’ve come down a bit; but I can’t understand why the Justice Department that sues nearly every major corporation you can think of, to try and prevent them from buying other companies like that, why they haven’t gone after big food provision companies, who have to be fixing prices at some level, have to be, because of certain prices for certain things never, ever come down, and it’s a crippler for American families,” says veteran columnist Mike Barnicle in this conversation with Jonathan Lemire on Way Too Early to discuss the 2024 presidential race and the state of the America economy as inflation has dropped below three percent for the first time since 2021.
