Big Food’s Predatory Pricing: How Corporate Giants and Leftist Policies Are Bleeding Americans Dry
Instead of addressing these root causes, leftists like Kamala Harris peddle myths about “corporate greed,” ignoring how their own regulations enable big food to gouge consumers. As American Thinker points out, Democrats remain silent when streaming giants hike prices, but the same hypocrisy applies to food chains—where’s the outrage over McDonald’s app scams? Delivery apps exacerbate the problem, acting as digital toll booths that siphon money from both restaurants and customers. The Quartering video busts DoorDash and Uber Eats for colluding with chains to hide massive markups, often without transparent disclosure. This mirrors broader complaints from restaurant owners who say apps take cuts as high as 30%, forcing higher menu prices to compensate.
Conservatives see this as the ugly face of unchecked big tech and big food symbiosis, thriving in a regulatory environment that favors monopolies over free markets. Heritage warns that high levels of regulation disproportionately harm small firms, leading to market concentration where giants like McDonald’s dominate and dictate prices. Policies like Biden’s radical agenda add layers of compliance costs, which big corps pass on to you—the consumer—while small eateries go under. Take “meatflation,” where beef prices skyrocketed under leftist oversight. Fox News reported shoppers facing holiday hikes due to supply chain meddling and green energy mandates that inflate feed and transport costs. Big food chains exploit this, marking up items like burgers by double digits on apps. The video highlights how a $5 value meal becomes $12 on Uber Eats, a 140% upcharge that hits low-income families hardest. Heritage’s analysis shows government intervention drives up food prices for the poor, with big government policies like farm marketing orders artificially elevating costs and rewarding inefficiency.
Conservatives argue this is crony capitalism at its worst: Leftists regulate to protect big donors, while Americans pay the bill. Even fraud runs rampant in the industry. Fox News exposed salmon scams at restaurants and groceries, where consumers get ripped off with mislabeled products that command premium prices. Big chains like McDonald’s aren’t immune—critics point to portion shrinks and quality cuts while prices climb. American Thinker slams the left for blaming “greedy grocers” for high food costs, when it’s Biden’s inflationary spending and regulations fueling the fire. The Quartering video calls for boycotts and awareness, echoing conservative calls to slash regulations by 75% as Trump proposed, to unleash competition and lower prices. Leftist hypocrisy shines through in stories like Kamala Harris’s staged diner stops, where real patrons were cleared out for photo ops, all while her administration sues convenience stores over pricing.
Democrats rail against “price-gouging” but ignore how their policies— from fuel economy standards adding $3,800 to vehicle costs, impacting delivery—to re-regulation explosions, create hidden taxes that big food exploits. Heritage’s report on Biden’s regulatory tsunami estimates a massive tax on the economy, raising food prices and enriching corporate elites. In contrast, conservatives push for deregulation to empower consumers, not corporations. The app scam is particularly insidious, targeting busy families and the elderly who rely on delivery. With markups up to 240%, as the video exposes, big food turns a $4 coffee into $10, padding profits amid record inflation. Fox News highlights how weight-loss drugs like Ozempic combat “food noise” from addictive junk, yet big food fights back with louder marketing, keeping prices high.
This greed thrives because leftist policies protect monopolies, as Heritage notes, restricting supply and adding extra requirements that inflate costs. American Thinker exposes the left’s weapon: Blaming fascism or greed while their policies enable the real rip-off. Politicians’ greed, not corporations’, is the root, but big food gladly plays along. The video’s bust of DoorDash and Uber Eats urges opting for in-store or local eateries, aligning with conservative values of personal responsibility and free markets. Under Trump, slashing regs could end this. As American Thinker argues, make America competitive again—Biden’s greed blame is B.S., but real solutions lie in conservative reforms.
Big food’s app scams are symptoms of a diseased system where leftists and corporations collude to rip off Americans. It’s time to fight back: Boycott the apps, demand deregulation, and vote conservative to restore affordability.
