A Kroger-Albertsons Merger Would Be Bad for Almost Everyone Why a coalition called Stop the Merger plans to “fight like hell” to prevent it

“As big companies keep getting bigger, their competitors disappear and prices keep going up. In fact, Food & Water Watch research found that in 2019, just four companies took in nearly 70 percent of all grocery sales in the country.”

Rebecca Wolf, Food Policy Analyst

Do farmers and farm workers pay the price when doing business with a monopoly grocery store? If consumers instead take their business to farmers markets or road stands, this monopoly power is avoided.


1/8/2023
Sometimes the general public needs protection from what big business does. A perfect example is Kroger trying to buy Vons/Albertsons.

Kroger pushed the COVID jabs. Now, Kroger wants to grab up their grocery store competitors that didn’t push the vaxxes? One of Kroger’s stores, Food4Less, was even posting a guard at the front of one of their nearby stores – presumably to make sure customers were wearing a mask? As a customer, I was able to cut up my Kroger’s card and shop at other local grocery stores.

Again Highlights How

A Bunch Of Mindless Parrots
When It Comes To Consolidation

“Big companies promoting terrible mergers that cause untold layoffs and consumer and market harms — while promising none of that will actually happen — is a proud, fifty-plus year American tradition. And it requires a symbiosis with lazy, (not-coincidentally also highly consolidated) major media empires.”

The Economic Cost of Food Monopolies
The Grocery Cartels

“Simply put, market power enables intermediaries like retailers and processors to capture an ever-growing share of food dollars, at the expense of farmers, food chain workers and eaters…

The U.S. DOJ and the FTC are supposed to consider the impacts on market consolidation of proposed mergers. Using these agencies’ very own measurement, over a third of grocery categories we surveyed exceed their ‘highly concentrated’ market threshold. Regardless, the agencies continue to greenlight mergers and acquisitions within these market categories.”

This report recommends Grocery Cooperatives, Food Hubs, local food processors, decentralized/diversified food systems, and that consolidation be stopped.

Will this legislation result in handouts to big media? Are link taxes a way of keeping us from sharing links online? So, are link taxes a method of censorship?

Did legacy news media mainly carry the government’s message of lockdowns, forced injections, masking, and fear? Was there scientific censorship by mainstream media?

And now the mainstream media wants to be subsidized via link taxes?

Meanwhile, is independent news thriving as readers flee mainstream outlets in droves?

Did the LA Times axe a lot of reporters in February?

Will mainstream news pressure legislators to pass link taxes because they can’t cut it without government handouts?

Is the owner of the LA Times a biotech entrepreneur? Was he involved with the development of a a second-generation vaccine for Covid-19? Did he buy the LA Times in order to promote pandemic narratives? Was his purchase of the LA Times really a business investment for promotion of COVID vaccines and mandates?

Are citizens waking up to media narratives due to competition from independent news?

Were some government officials the chief purveyors of disinformation and misinformation during the pandemic? But, California’s medical gag law doesn’t target these disinformation spreaders, does it? Does it actually target independent doctors who tell the truth… and say things that don’t conform to media narratives?

IS THIS OPPOSITE WORLD?

When there are no consequences for government lying or incompetence… will it just happen over and over and over again?
