I have no doubt they will argue the price increase as a result of tariffs, but market prices are and will always be about what the market will tolerate and rarely nothing else. This is why many other companies will segment the market with w

Larger companies has always been able to break the law and get away with it. That is unlikely to change. However laws do have an effect on such companies, because their protection is only as strong as people are willing to give them excepti

I am always reminded by a critique of the Obama v Mitt Romney (2012) how if there is one thing the left and right are in full agreement on, it is to massively spend on the military. The left and the right can disagree on health, taxes, and
