Walmart has already raised prices on juice that I like to buy by ~40% They are profeteering on the current situation. They need to be cancelled. When a box of sugar water (juice) goes up for no reason, people need to be accountable. I have a solution, and its weird AI. I cant explain it now, but imagine you had full transparency to your supply chain.

> ...imagine you had full transparency to your supply chain. As a layman, this would be an information deluge that I would be utterly unqualified to evaluate... even _if_ I had the time required to examine the supply chains for the hundreds (or tens of thousands, depending on how you split out the BOMs) of separate things I purchase each month. As a hypothetical exec at Wal-Mart, I almost certainly have the power to order potential suppliers to reveal more than enough information about _their_ supply chains to satisfy every bit of interest I possess.

  2% on $612B a year is still 10 digits of profit. I think most companies would be happy making a billion a month in profit for a commodity, don't you?
