The majority of retail grocers out there today run a tight ship...they run a fairly consistent gross margin, the mindset with price control is that the retailer is going to jack up the 'bread basket' items with higher profit margins than the rest of the products, because they are essential items. Bull crap...that's not the age we live in these days. people are hurting out there, let the free market reign, leave it to the store to set their prices, the merchandise will either sell if they have it priced right, or it won't, and it will spoil on their shelves.
I would love to see the report that Shame Gibson was threatening to publish with how many 'Reds' were dodging RPT and other taxes...but let's make it a fair fight and have the yella-belly's in the mix too...but hey, they all went squealing for cover and dodged revealing anything, even though it is legally required that they do...even went so far as to say it violated their privacy in doing so. Politicians on both side of the fence are shameless cowards who would rather talk crap than put up the facts and deal with it.
