    Is there something you don't blame Obama for? Obama literally has nothing to do with the prices at your local store...

    Capitalism is a love story. Doesn't the Sherman Antitrust Act prevent these types of mergers and acquisitions? Why do they keep happening then?

    Really? That's who I was referring to when I replied to River Man's picture.

    Rookie post.

    Sherman Antitrust Act makes it not Capitalism, by definition.

    If you vote for Bernie and he wins, your SS will increase to a living wage. You're Republican friends in Congress are the reason why your SS check is as low as it is.

    Well, we're in agreement he's a "Kenyan."

    People think they're getting a deal when the price ends in .99, even if the price is 1 cent different.

    People are more inclined to buy shit at 1.99, than they are at 2.00. And lots of people see "sale" and buy shit even if they don't need it OR its not actually saving money.

    The problem is marketers know about this. They tailor their marketing specifically. It's really actually quite scandalous.

    I hate to say that my wife falls for this shit. She thinks we're saving money.

    She says "look, it's only 19.99!"
    I'll say "you mean it's 20 bucks"

    My favorite is a car priced at 19,999. Thank GOD it's under 20 grand.
