That’s fucking disgusting.

Electric cargo bikes fill the same niche here. Well, minus the boat part.

That still does not answer my “why” question tbh.

But I suppose that in a country where “walkable neighborhoods” are construed to be some nefarious communist plot to rob people of their freedom, not walking its a status symbol.

I’m putting my foot down! No more than fifteen presents!

What the actual fuck?

Also, what’s the deal with the golf cart? Why do they have a golf cart?

do you have supermarket monopolies in the US though?

I’m not in the US. And the post is about Canada. But the problems are global.

You are right, it’s not a monopoly in the strict sense. In most countries, including mine, there are a few serious choke points in the supply chain. Basically, there’s two or three supermarket chains, a handful of specialized logistics companies (turns out here they’re one that handles all packaged cheese distribution for all supermarkets) and then a very small number of producers per item (most detergents and soaps you’ve ever heard of are from one of two companies world wide).

If you dig deeper, it doesn’t really get any better. Yes, there are a lot of farmers, but consolidation is happening as we speak. Also, all fertilizer, herbicide and most of the seeds come from the usual suspects. So, yes, there are many companies involved, but there isn’t a whole lot of actual competition.

No one:

You: I LIVE ON GOVERNMENT ASSISTANCE DUE TO DISABILITY SO I FONT MAKE MUCH AND YET I AM PERFECTLY CAPABLE OF SAVING MONEY EVERY SINGLE MONTH. I PROMISE IT IS DOABLE.

No one:

You: SCREW THE POORS AND THEIR SMARTPHONES

“Hold your wealth”?

Have you met any actual people? A lot of people have one month’s worth of “wealth” at the start of the month. If they are lucky.

This is not the topic for your 1970s goldbug pontifications. It’s about people stealing food.

The supermarkets are just catering to their actual customers: the stock market.

Price controls don’t address the root cause either. We need massive anti trust action to break up the agrifood and food distribution monopolies.

He is a sinking ship, so it’s fitting!

That sounds like way too much effort.

Also, injustice is never conquered by popular approval. Let them downvote.

Actually did not. But that’s another matter. Abuser.

Which is what I do 99% of the time.

Not this time. This time I speak my piece.

Also, your “if you complain about prejudice you are not reasonable” is not appreciated. It’s straight up abuser talk.

Because it plays on harmful stereotypes.

How is this even a question?

If Italian people were offended by this

“If” an Italian was, and told you, you’d explain to him he isn’t really offended, like you’re doing now. Because that’s what you are doing after an Italian told you to knock this shit off.

I don’t see any downvotes

I don’t want to block you. I want everyone here to see what you post, and what I think of it.

Then I block you.

You can argue you have a right to post what you want.

You can’t argue however that I don’t have the same right.

You post prejudiced garbage, I’m gonna call it out. I’m sure it’s “just a joak”, but if there’s one thing we’ve learned in the past decade or so, it’s that everything is ironic until it suddenly is not.

So straight up prejudice today?

Great.
