    ...which store and what are examples of this? I think 15% increase from fair market is max allowed under price gouging laws. :dunno:

    "based on government advice"...oh, that's reassuring.

    Trump says he's directed Pence not to call governors who aren't 'grateful' for federal aid

    President Donald Trump bashed governors he claims weren't "grateful" enough for federal assistance, and said he's directed Vice President Mike Pence not to call such governors unless they "treat him right."

    In particular, Trump called out Washington Gov. Jay Inslee — calling him "a failed presidential candidate" — and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who he said, "has no idea what's going on."

    "I say Mike (Pence), don't call the governor of Washington; you're wasting your time with him. Don't call the woman in Michigan," Trump said. "It doesn't make any difference. You know what I say? If they don't treat you right, don't call."

    Is Pence even allowed to be on the phone alone with a woman?

    Fred Meyer over here seems to almost have returned to normal. Also I did logistics for a major retailer for a small period of my life and sometimes the prices come up from the supply chain. Its not always (but definitely sometimes) the stores price gouging people.
