2022 State of the Union address: on Corporations


Joe Biden: Capitalism without competition is exploitation

Lowering your costs also means demanding more competition. I'm a capitalist, but capitalism without competition isn't capitalism. It's exploitation--and it drives up prices. When corporations don't have to compete, their profits go up, your prices go up, and small businesses and family farmers and ranchers go under.T onight, I'm announcing a crackdown on these companies overcharging American businesses and consumers.
