<p>[QUOTE=&quot;statequarterguy, post: 1932633, member: 21782&quot;]Short of monopolies, consumers also suffer when there’s too little competition, which is often the result of mergers, that were allowed by the government that big business bought.&nbsp; The SSA is not run for profit.&nbsp; The post office raises its prices twice a years these days, the result of a bought government requiring them to show unreasonable pension losses, so they can turn the operation over to their private sector donors.&nbsp; And, we all know how the bought government allowed big business to move millions of jobs offshore, yet still allowed them access to the US market.&nbsp; As for Walmart getting away with paying slave wages, well that&#039;s a result of the bought government breaking the labor unions, which lowers wages and benefits for all (union &amp; nonunion).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Short of Nazi Germany, this runaway greed is the worst I’ve ever seen.&nbsp; Big business (and some government agencies, i.e. The US Mint) gouge consumers with high prices and low quality and refuse to share the wealth with U.S. labor, they&#039;d rather lobby the government for no minimum wage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
