The Price Fix of Your Groceries

What if the “lowest price” isn't really the lowest price at all? We look at the nearly 90-year-old Robinson-Patman Act, the FTC's case against PepsiCo involving alleged preferential treatment for Walmart, and allegations of a “price floor” that could prevent competitors from offering lower prices. The FTC case was ultimately dismissed under the current administration, but it leaves a much bigger question: How much do behind-the-scenes pricing agreements affect what Americans pay at the grocery store? #GroceryPrices #FoodPrices #Walmart #PepsiCo #FTC #RobinsonPatmanAct #PriceFixing #PriceDiscrimination #ConsumerPrices #CostOfLiving #CorporateAmerica #Antitrust
