Corporate Prices


A Sainsburys advert flashed across the screen on FaceBook the other day.  Sadly, I did not catch it, I merely dumped it and looked at something interesting.  However, the ad was claiming something about Sainsburys lowering prices, this is always good, yet surprisingly that day in the store I noticed it was incorrect.  
The meat shelves was first, neat selling at £3:75 had risen to £4, then at the coffee shelves similarly the coffee overpriced at £3:75 was also now £4.  That's how to increase sales I thought.  No doubt each manager has to manage the profits in a way that keeps the high ups happy and ensures further promotion in the dog eat dog world of supermarket managing, and this manager has done himself proud.  These are the clear increases, the 10% added to the stuff bought at a slower rate is less noticeable, yet it is there.  
The corporates own the nation and here we see how they make use of their power to rob us blind.  We have no choice but to shop at such stores, Tesco dominate here and both town centre stores increase prices always keeping in line with one another, while the far off Lidl shop is not in my view any cheaper.  Caring little for the customer, caring much less for the farmer and others who provide their goods these supermarkets are happily keeping in with governments of either persuasion.  Vast sums off money are donated, no opposition to price increases are heard in the House, and who knows what benefits individual MPs have received?
The use of 'British' stamped on most goods began under Boris to give support to the Brexit fantasy, implying that 'Britain' could go it alone.  Now the same needless 'British' stamped upon even ice featuring 'British Water,' though whether this is water polluted by 'British,' that is 'English,' water companies is not known.  Today 'British' is used in a vain attempt to put down Scottish nationalism, but instead this increases it.  The recent absurd misuse of turning 'Bells Whisky' into 'British Whisky,' followed by a new attempt to change the Law and allow 'English Whisky' to be granted single malt status is another anti Scottish game played by the English colonists.
These corporates are extending their control now to ensure the shoppers are removed when they get old.  No money to be spent on palliative care just bump them off to save money.  No-one who suggests taxing these rich people will escape under this totalitarian scheme, a scheme the people vote for !  
Supermarkets are crooks robbing us blind like the gas, electric and water companies, all supported by corrupt governments, all designed to keep the people down and increase profits to the rich in power.  Why do the people not stand up and complain?  Where are the protests?  Grumbling on 'BlueSky' is one thing but no action is ever to be seen.  
The people have been ground down, where are the Kier Hardies' of today?
