Improve transparency with “Private Label” brands

Improve transparency with “Private Label” brands

All supermarkets now have their own “private labels.” Shoprite, Wegmans, ALDI, LIDL, Stop & Shop, Walmart, and every single major food retailer has them.

The U.S. Constitution, including Amendments, was written on 4 pages of parchment paper.

The Glass Steagall Act, which kept the Wall Street banks from destroying our economic system until it was repealed in 1999, was 37 pages long.

These bills are written by corporate lobbyists, unread by your Congress critters, and passed with absolutely no transparency or vetting with the citizens.

Keep voting. I’m sure that will change things.
