- Title
Corporate Monopoly Power: a Main Driver of Inflation.
- Authors
Geyman, John P.
- Abstract
National exit polls following the 2022 midterm elections found that inflation was the number 1 issue among Americans in deciding how they voted.[1]To the extent that they relied on mainstream news outlets, such as cable news and newspapers, voters did not learn of any specific cause of inflation, much less implicating U. S. corporate monopolies. Large U. S. multinational corporations are, however, major drivers of inflation by price gouging. Hartmann, T. Is most of America's inflation due to monopolies, price gouging & oil barons fleecing us?.
