CFPB & FTC leading ‘All-of-Government’ effort to fight corporate abuses

The Biden-Harris administration is focusing on corporate price gouging as part of a broader effort to assist American families struggling with high living costs. Recently, a Kroger senior executive admitted during its antitrust trial that the grocer had raised prices on essential items beyond what inflation justified. Democratic nominee Kamala Harris has pledged to enact a federal ban on price gouging within her first 100 days in office. Meanwhile, the Federal Trade Commission and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau are targeting several industries for abusive practices, says CFPB Director Rohit Chopra. Chopra told guest host Melissa Murray that the administration’s “all-of-government” approach is aimed at combating “Wall Street abuses,” noting that any pushback is mainly coming from “lobbyists and their lawyers.”

Thank you so much for this interview! At one point the interviewee said that they wanted to make sure companies were competing not colluding, I believe is the word he used but it was really to the point

I am so glad that there is still so much happening in government now including with Biden's actions. Nobody is sitting on their butts waiting for Trump to win because he's going to lose

Due to being put in an unfortunate lack of housing situation, I had to get a storage unit to put our belongings in. I have been paying Smart Stop Storage on Sweeten Creek Rd. in Asheville NC $175 a month since May 2024 which is already ridiculous and now just received a notice in the mail that as of OCTOBER 1, 2024 I will be charged $262 a month. This is intentional to cause financial hardship . They have already been charging too much !

Good job and hopefully Kamala will get more done. Actual functional market economy is better for all. Including true businessmen.

I blame corporate greed for all my problems, and I'm rarely mistaken. God bless the FTC, and CFPB, for so many corporate elites and GOPers to want them gone, shows what a great job they are doing.

Inflation in America: lets take one kernal of corn, add filler and air to produce one bag of corn chips. All profit for the company and no nutritional value for the consumer. That's the literally and figurative reality that is commercialism's strategic profit/ 'economic' model.

Do something now? If Biden isn't going to push harder step down go on permanent vacation (retire).. And Madam President takes over and could've implemented her policies in July or August!
