“The main issue identified by the study is that, while voters almost universally endorse challenging corporate power, very few voters credit the Biden-Harris administration for what they’ve done in this area, because most don’t know about those policies at all.”

“In particular, 80% of voters or more want the government to use leverage to bring down costs of essential #drugs or treatments such as insulin or inhalers, investigate #bigoil companies for inflating #gas prices, enforce #RightToRepair rules, ban #noncompeteagreements , and break up monopolies like #ticketmaster

"Not even a third of voters know the government is already trying to:

* ban noncompetes,
* crack down on junk fees by airlines and banks,
* break up Ticketmaster and Big Tech, or even
* make it easier to join a union."

"The Biden-Harris administration is currently suing to block the largest grocery store merger in decades between #Kroger and #Albertsons on the basis that it could raise prices by reducing competition. The trial started yesterday and will be a major subplot in the election."
