I would have appreciated if the article would have included information about where the profits from these changes are going.
Without that information, the other plausible narrative is more like, "Governments try to cover up the negative consequences to consumers of their massive inflation of the monetary supply by forcing companies to continue providing products at the same price (especially products like food staples that are included in consumer price indices)."
In all likelihood, it's probably both the government officials and the execs/owners who are profiting off the situation at the expense of everybody who still needs to eat food.
- eastbound 3y agoThe article is incomplete, as usual for CNN. Headline makes a bold statement, there isn’t even a photo of a sticker showing the French translation for “shrinkflation”, which I’m not sure exists, and it does put the opinions in perspective of others.
