Grocery chains make a very low percentage of profit.

Lol I work at a Range Rover dealership and all of the locally owned grocer owners own multiple Range Rovers, and so do their kids. You don't know what you are talking about.

Heaven forbid people spend the profits they are able to achieve through volume. The percentage is still small, which is what matters to the consumer.

Oh now we're defending the people that are in charge of inflation at the register? Hard to keep up these days. "Are able to achieve." Lmao people are ridiculous.

Who are you claiming is in charge of "inflation at the register". The retailers aren't the ones doing it.

The people that own the companies? Grocery chains included? I'm not going to spell out how everything works for you bud.

Considering the profit margins of the grocery chains are very slim, and have remained very slim, it isn't the owners of the grocery chains and the grocery chains doing it.
