Political Factoid

When grain prices are in a slump
and global stockpiles on the rise,
the laws of supply and demand -
in a free market - would suggest
that meat, dairy and pasta prices
should fall.
... but not with a false and un-free
market, and not when the intermediary
companies insist upon first building up
their profit margins ... and excessive
profits on which they missed out earlier
in the year.
cf.  Free Enterprise, 260
