Cannot possibly be done, ,,,You have to fix it from the cow to the hamburger to the trucker, to the included tomatos, then their truckers, lettuce, what a laugh.
You will be happy to know,,,,,,I pass.

If it "can't possibly be done" why did the Justice Department under Trump send this guy to prison for 40 months for doing it?:

"Christopher Lischewski, former Chief Executive Officer and President of Bumble Bee Foods LLC, was sentenced to serve 40 months in jail and pay a $100,000 criminal fine for his leadership role in a three-year antitrust conspiracy to fix prices of canned tuna, the Department of Justice announced.

Lischewski was charged on May 16, 2018, in an indictment returned by a federal grand jury in San Francisco. After a four-week trial in late 2019, he was convicted on the single count of participating in a conspiracy to fix prices of canned tuna. In imposing Lischewski’s 40-month prison sentence, the Court found that Lischewski was a leader or organizer of the conspiracy and that it affected over $600 million dollars of canned tuna sales. "

So this guy, in the words of AOC, 'did something'.
Uhhh, only the government can price fix, so you are a bit off issue. Bring those who would discuss this silly unworkable concept onto the same playing field. Not some crook with antitrust problems. We would all agree he should be in jail, so if that were the issue, there would be no thread to discuss.
