However no mention of Biden's push for $15 an hour minimum wage accross the country. This will drive prices up also. What business is going to be forced to pay higher wages and keep their prices the same? The answer is, none of them.

Well England will get really upset if it happens.
Also I feel that the real reason prices are higher here in the States is because of the price of Diesel. Electric big trucks (Semis) are no really close to acceptance yet, so everything that comes to the markets is by Diesel. Even when shipped by train (most of those are Diesel), it has to go from the train by truck to the store.
Everyone cried about the price of gas, but forgot about Diesel. IMO

In California all fast food workers will be paid $20 an hour in all the restaurants that have more than 60 restaurants nationwide. How is that going to affect the price of fast food as well as the whole workforce statewide. Our i***t governor signed off on that one. Our next president, I hope not.
