Since Buckley v. Valeo deregulated lobbying in 1978, & exponentially since Citizens United deemed corps “people” in 2010, our govt doesn’t work for us; instead they work to divide us on social issues so we won’t see the charade & demand more. Just 4 meatpacking conglomerates process >90% of the meat in the US. Not surprisingly, we’re figuring out the same cons to monopolization of markets our ancestors did – prices mysteriously go up while both quality and quantity go down (and profits soar) 🤔

you know what? I like this positivity. egg prices ARE coming down. I won't get nearly as much protein, but it's food and it can make me cookies too

112 years ago, William Howard Taft and the SCOTUS broke up Standard Oil, the American Sugar Refiners, and the American Tobacco Co. into *dozens* of competitors when they got too fat and greeedy; alleging that “it’s not even capitalism if there’s not competition.” Today, just 10 companies deliver our entire grocery store. Just 4 airlines run nearly every domestic flight. The 34 competitors they broke Standard Oil into have consolidated back down to just 4. Where’s our govt? Bickering abt 🐄💩
