    We have the same inflation / gouging problem in Australia.

    We had a supermarkets inquiry to investigate practices of price gouging. I don’t think anyone has any faith that it’s going to improve anything.

      ‘gouging’ is just monopoly capitalism. You can’t stop it unless you regulate the market and enforce antitrust laws, but that’s ‘big gubbament’
