Economy/Business / Re: Walmart launches its largest private grocery brand in decades
« Last post by Wingnut on Today at 10:06:11 pm »As profit margins shrink daily, stores have to do what they can to survive. This may have ripple effect on other chains... and not a good effect. Private label products are becoming more popular as consumers feel their buying power shrinking.

Walmart launches its largest private grocery brand in decades
Private brands have been gaining market share from national brands, Circana reported
By Daniella Genovese FOXBusiness
Walmart announced Tuesday that it is launching its largest private food brand in decades to lure in more cost-conscious shoppers.
The brand, Bettergoods, will encompass 300 items including frozen, dairy, snacks, beverages, pasta, soups, coffee and chocolate, the Arkansas-based retailer said.
All the items will cost between $2 and $15; "most products" will be priced under $5, Walmart said.
To set itself apart, Walmart touted that Bettergoods isn't a direct alternative to national brand offerings but rather "unique" to Walmart, including specialty salts and seasonings, like Hot Honey Seasoning, or jar soups, including our Creamy Corn Jalapeno Chowder.
The company already has two private labels, Great Value and Equate, which are lower-cost alternatives to national brand products.

Florida / Re: Democrats running in every Florida House race for first time since 2018
« Last post by Wingnut on Today at 09:50:33 pm »Who knows. At any rate this isn't good. We need to hang on to our conservative majorities. They have accomplished a lot. My concern is with the influx of those who have moved to the state, the GOP may lose some seats.C'mon Debbie Downer. You need to take some time away from the newsfeeds. The FL DP is in deep dodo. Nikki Fried is a joke. She is full of more shit than a Christmas Goose. They have one plank to stand on...abortion. And that ranks number 7 or8 on the list of top concerns with Floridians. The majority of FL women are in or entering menopause!

Editorial/Opinion/Blogs / Re: Tulsi Gabbard: Why it's time to leave the Democrat party behind
« Last post by roamer_1 on Today at 09:47:43 pm »She may have left the Democrat party
But she still holds her left-wing views
I can handle left wing views - Classic liberalism is akin to Conservatism, in the same vein that big 'L' libertarians are akin to true libertarians. There are positions on the left worth defending, if only there were any left leaning liberals left with the integrity to defend them.

Elections 2024 / The ‘Biden bump’ that didn’t last long > Byron York

THE ‘BIDEN BUMP’ THAT DIDN’T LAST LONG. “The election is clearly changing now, moving towards Biden,” the influential Democratic strategist Simon Rosenberg declared on March 26. “The Biden bump is real.” For Republicans, Rosenberg is someone worth listening to. He was right about the nonexistent “red wave” that many in the GOP expected back in 2022. When he said the election was moving, it was worth noting.
Now, though, the situation is a little more complicated. Ever since President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address on March 7, the one in which he appeared to shout much of the time to prove his vigor, Democrats have been hoping for a Biden surge. A lot of that was just wish-casting. It simply did not make sense to many Democrats that former President Donald Trump could be under four indictments, and starting trial in one case, and still be leading Biden. It just seemed too crazy to accept. But it was true.
Then, in late March and early April, Biden did rise a bit in the polls. According to the RealClearPolitics average of national polls, Trump has led Biden in head-to-head matchups since September 2023. (They were tied for one brief moment in October.) During his March-April “bump,” Biden’s deficit shrank, coming within two-tenths of a point of catching Trump. Democratic hopes rose.
“Biden’s position in the polls is improving against Trump,” declared the polling analyst Nate Silver on April 18. “It looks to me like Biden’s numbers against Trump have improved by a hair, probably to a degree that isn’t just statistical noise.” Even a slight improvement was like manna from heaven for Democrats and their allies in the media.
