not relevant to the comment to which you are replying. truth in advertising has nothing to do with inflation.
but it's also absurd to suggest that price controls are a valid means of addressing inflation
- OfSanguineFire 3y agoIt is relevant to the context of this thread in general. Even if Polish consumers are spared the trick of raising prices through fake discounts as the OP mentioned, they still suffer from the same surge in prices that many of the European posters here are complaining about. Nowhere in my post was I calling for price controls.
- iraqmtpizza 3y agoyour comment was suggestive of it whether that was your intention or not
- OfSanguineFire 3y agoWhere? In that post I shared my own personal strategy for saving money by doing my shopping at a wholesaler instead of an ordinary supermarket. No state intervention required.
- iraqmtpizza 3y agoIn precisely the part that you just left out
- OfSanguineFire 3y agoThe only part I could have left out is the plain statement “Poland has still been hit by inflation, though.” That doesn’t even suggest calling for price controls. Yours was a kneejerk reaction.
- iraqmtpizza 3y agoIn context it is very suggestive. Maybe you are incapable of inferences but other people are not, so I decided it was best to dispel that idea ahead of time.
- atdrummond 3y agoIt is unreasonable to infer what the original author has said he has not implied.
- iraqmtpizza 3y agoYou didn't say that you didn't imply it until after I brought it up. In fact, you never would have said that unless and until I raised the issue. So I accept your apology.
- OfSanguineFire 3y agoMaybe look at who you just replied to there?
