Maybe she rues the price hike on canned crab meat, used in her crab-tomato-mayonnaise recipe published in Pow Wow Chow.

Do the people of Massachusetts believe as Sen Warren that businesses should not pass along their increased costs to consumers, thereby operating at increasing losses to the point of bankruptcy and shutting down completely? Are there no business owners in Mass? Is there no one with a pension and/or retirement account, all of which are invested in corporate stocks, in Mass?

Mass is "supposedly" the best-educated state. So why is their electorate so colossally stupid, believing any of that BS and electing ignorant Warren time and time again?

Very few of them have ever started or ran a business.

Our problem, way too many lawyers as our politicians!

Grocers are in competition with each other. Raising prices on your own just to be greedy doesn’t work as you will lose customers and sales to your competition with lower prices. Therefore, what Elizabeth Warren said is a bunch of crock meant to deflect the blame on inflation from her fellow Democrat Biden to grocers.

Sadly, many dumb people believe her.

"The majority of people in Massachusetts can't be as loony as she is, are they?"

Have you ever been there?

They did elect MANY kennedy's. It is commonly know they are hypocrites, claiming to be such good Catholics then elect men who are KNOWN for their running around on their wives.

Re-electing a known alcoholic man over and over who murdered a young female he should NOT have been with in the 1st place.

Mass, is NOT "Camelot"!

"I'd like to see her discuss it with restaurant owners"

What they would say would be WAY OVER her head!

And quite clearly, there are a LOT of dumb Democrats in Massachusetts. Supposedly "the most-educated" state in the US.

Just like all this defund the police, bail reform, no prosecution nonsense has led to a spike in crime in their liberal cities, the dumb populace still votes for Democrats religiously. Just amazing, if you ask me.
It’s good to have the propaganda media on your side.

This shows how little most politicians understand business.
