The price of pork at the grocery store is sky high.
But hog farmers in Minnesota are getting less.
So, where's all the money going?
Don't we have antitrust laws?
Wake up #MN01. It's time for a blue wave in rural America!

The sharply rising price of pork in grocery stores minus the stable or declining price paid to hog farmers and declining real wages for labor equals PROFIT for big meat processing corporations. They reinvest a portion of that profit to buy seats in Congress. What a #SpamScam!
"Hog prices...are half of the $134.41/cwt. June peak and are close to dropping below the year-ago level for the first time this year."
Don't talk about "inflation" to the Minnesota farmer. They're not getting the money. Big business is.

Farmers get low prices, labor gets cheated and consumers pay sky high prices. Big food companies do anything they can to protect their monopoly. They make massive contributions to the GOP, inject dark money into politics and even run their CEOs in Democratic primaries. #SpamScam
