MILK does a wallet BAD: ILLEGALLY PRICE-GOUGING MILK and no one cares!!

Ok, this is getting SERIOUSLY RIDICULOUS!!! At first, I just brushed these thins off but now it’s getting out of hand across the board. In NYC, all the goddamn prices are going up! A lot of people who are the merchants are saying “Oh it’s the economy so all the prices are up” and they are just boosting the prices on every goddamn thing in the store. However, many have cited that many of these merchants are using the ignorance of the people, to their advantages, when they over-price the items in the stores. People think “oh the economy is bad, so I can see why I have to pay more” but that’s not entirely the case, in most situations!!! So one common household purchase is MILK! Have you checked the goddamn prices? I bought a gallon, like 10 minutes ago, shit was $4 w tax!!!! NEVER have I seen that in my life. MILK costs that damn much to produce? That’s BULLSHIIT! Now, I walked to 3 stores before I actually made the purchase and that’s because ALL OF THE STORES have around the same price! If you ask everyone who can swing the money easily without thinking, they say it’s normal, but ask people who can’t afford these prices rising like this, especially illegally on things like MILK, and you’ll see how unreasonable it is. Not being able to price gouge milk has been a law for over 17 years!!! This practice of price gouging goes on in the hood and in good areas because hood people won’t know the law and rich people just say “oh well that’s the economy”. That’s why it’s so widely done here!

The DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE AND MARKETS is a department that is responsible for a monthly price setting memo that get circulated, but the problem is not a lot of people get that circulation! So the people who get the memo obviously HAVE to charge the price that agency set, being that they got the memo, but the other hundreds of thousands of stores, which didn’t get the memo, are happy!!! They can charge whatever the fu(k they want for Milk! And that’s what happening. No one is going to make sure that ALL stores get these types of regulatory memos and therefore no one is enforcing it. If the prices climb, poor people will be more reluctant to buy it, thus offsetting the health of their children! Someone needs to curb these goddamn stores because it’s getting out of hand!!!

So digging, I found that the NEW YORK CITY COUNCIL has indeed found that 86% of the stores are falsely over-pricing milk!!!! That’s a rate of 43 out of 50 stores that are in violation, people! They surveyed 10 random stores in each of the 5 boroughs! Here’s the thing, the NYCC isn’t going to go around to investigate, not without YOUR HELP. lol They’re saying it’s up to the store owners to obey the laws and not over-price, and they leave it at that! lol So now, if you see that your milk is overly priced, you better report it or the price will continue to skyrocket. That’s the only way the NYCC is going to investigate the issue further. So ei you don’t report the merchants, blame yourself for the skyrocketing prices! I have 3 stores I’m calling in today about!
