Exactly, US food companies were found guilty of price gouging, and instead of regulating prices or introducing any legal consequences whatsoever, Biden wagged his finger and supposedly said "Hey jack, dont fuck people over quite as much" and so prices didnt go back down to what they should be, or what they had been, they went down a barely noticeable percentage from a ridiculous all time high. Also what you people dont seen to ever understand, someone criticizing biden is NOT automatically defending trump, or saying hed do better. Theyre saying in the eyes of most people, Biden did fuck all and it wasnt enough (clearly). But keep licking the old mans boots because that worked super well last election. You can blame everyone else but i blame you dumbass die hard democrat party/ biden defenders who think they can do no wrong.

"instead of regulating prices"

literally what they're trying to regulate with the legislation he introduced

you can't just regulate private companies for no reason.

"Biden wagged his finger and supposedly said "Hey jack, dont fuck people over quite as much" and'

and it worked and the prices went down.

Love that you used "hey Jack"by the way, I've been really getting into that lately.

"percentage from a ridiculous all time high.'

ehgs down from $4 to less than $1 because of a study done that show their price gouging....so... that significant well then

"someone criticizing biden is NOT automatically defending trump"

couldn't care less about this tangent.

and then it looks like you're just making shit up after that because you don't have any evidence, facts or logic to draw on.
