It’s insane that 3 ribeye at Costco are $99 dollars. Beef has become unaffordable for many Americans and there is no relief in site.

The corporate purge of the American dining room is accelerating. ​Buffalo Wild Wings is quietly shutting down its traditional sports bars. ​They are replacing them with a scaled-down concept called "BWW Go." ​They opened nearly 80 of these empty storefronts last year alone. ​No tables. No waiters. No community. ​Just a sterile pickup counter built exclusively for the gig economy. ​Wendy's wasn't an isolated incident. ​They are systematically dismantling the human experience to protect their profit margins.

American proves Amazon is robbing you The more you look at the price of items, the more the price increases (just like airline tickets were caught doing) She has 2 items she was looking at last night, she left the screen open In the morning she clicks refresh. The price updates and now the same items cost 28% more There were no ending sales to account for the change. This is just a system jacking up prices because you showed interest $45.98 -> $58.98 This is exactly what airlines were caught doing

Amazon just got caught running a secret price manipulation operation with Levi's, Home Depot, Walmart, and many more. Every time you "comparison shopped" online, you were looking at prices that were already rigged. Here's what happened: Amazon would monitor prices on Walmart, Target, Best Buy, Home Depot, and Chewy in real time. The second a competitor listed a product cheaper than Amazon, they'd contact the brand directly and tell them to "fix it." And the exact emails are now PUBLIC. Amazon sent Levi's links to two Walmart listings with the subject line "styles of concern." They basically said the prices on Walmart are too low and we have a problem. The next day, Levi's responded: "I talked to Walmart and they have partnered with us to take Easy Khaki Classic fit back up to ladder SPP price, $29.99 immediately." Levi's literally called Walmart and told them to raise the price. Because Amazon told Levi's to make the call. Walmart complied. Then Amazon matched the HIGHER price. Both retailers ended up charging more. The customer paid extra. Nobody competed. Same playbook with Hanes: Amazon sent them links showing Target and Walmart prices were lower. Hanes confirmed they "reached out to Target and Walmart to have the prices increased." Target increased the prices. Walmart increased the prices. Amazon kept their margins. But it gets even worse... Amazon told Allergan (the company that makes eye drops) that their product was "suppressed" on Amazon because it was cheaper on another site. Allergan responded: "Walmart got their price back up to $16.99." Amazon then unsuppressed the listing. They did this with pet treats on Chewy. Furniture on Home Depot. Products across dozens of categories spanning YEARS. The mechanism is simple but terrifying: If you're a brand and you sell cheaper on Walmart than on Amazon, Amazon suppresses your product, removes you from the Buy Box, buries you in search results, and effectively makes you invisible to 300 million customers. Brands can't afford that. So they call Walmart and Target and say "raise your prices or we'll lose our Amazon listings." Walmart and Target comply because they need the brand's products. Amazon captures 40 cents of every dollar spent online in America. That gives them the leverage to set prices across THE ENTIRE internet. Not just their own platform. So turns out, you were never comparison shopping. You were looking at a coordinated price floor set by Amazon through backroom phone calls between brands and their competitors. "Amazon is working to make your life more unaffordable." 3 separate antitrust trials are now scheduled for 2027. The FTC has its own case. 18 states plus the DOJ are piling on. This is literally happening during the WORST affordability crisis in a generation. Groceries up 25% since 2020. Housing unaffordable. Wages flat. And the largest ecommerce company on Earth has been secretly coordinating with brands to make sure you can't find a cheaper price ANYWHERE. "Competition" in retail is just a fantasy.

I remember a while back I said that if you make over $200k a a year and still mow your own lawn, you're doing it wrong. Now that the average quote I'm getting for my lawn is $400 a month, I think I'm changing my mind on that statement. What are folks running for lawnmowing equipment on a 1 acre mow these days?

An American buys a $12 sandwich from Jimmy John’s — and it’s mostly bread. What used to be a full sub now costs DOUBLE for less food. In 2016, an 8-inch was $5.50. A Giant was around $7. This isn’t just inflation — it’s customers paying more while getting less.

Been there done that... Way to much meat...and it could be sitting in a freezer for a year. Until the cow is slaughtered, you don't know if it will be prime, choice or select. If meat is really tough, then nobody wants to eat it. Sometimes, the cow especially if older, will have a strong gamey taste to it. In my opinion, buy from local farmers instead.

This guy shows everything he got from one cow. If he bought all of this individually at the grocery store, it probably would’ve cost around $5,000 to $7,000. Instead, buying the whole cow direct likely cost closer to $3,000 to $4,500.

@MmisterNobody So they use facial recognition, know your financial status and AI raises the price for folks with money and lowers it for folks without money. You walk out of the store with it automatically checked out with your Wal-Mart digital account. That is where I see this headed.

Walmart is officially going full force and is rolling out digital price tags in all 4,600 US stores, with digital screens replacing paper price tags by the end of 2026. Every shelf. Every store. All controlled remotely from one central system. This gives Walmart the ability to change the price of any product at any moment. Based on demand, time of day, inventory levels, or whatever algorithm they choose. And the moment Walmart moves, every major retailer in the country will follow. Once everything turns digital, it's game over.

@saylor @joeokeefejr Add an extra 5% bonus dividend points for $Strc Holders that keep it a full year. I would move tons of capitol to it for 16.5% interest with very little downside. You would be able to buy all the bitcoin...

Strategy is proposing to pay semi-monthly dividends on $STRC, instead of monthly. No change to the annual dividend obligations or dividend rate. These proposed changes are intended to stabilize price, dampen cyclicality, drive liquidity, and grow demand.
