The Shady World of Surveillance Pricing (Ft. Lina Khan)
Robert Reich The Shady World of Surveillance Pricing (Ft. Lina Khan)

A new report finds corporations like Kroger and McDonald's are using digital loyalty programs to track your data and potentially charge you more.

It's a tactic known as surveillance pricing.

Former FTC Chair Lina Khan explains. https://youtu.be/-cbtUYshYM8?si=GPRt5_WnLehnjgWR

Kinda like when he ditched being present to receive the bodies of the 4 US military service members that drowned in their tank after sinking in the marshes of Lithuania during training, so he could hang out w Saudi LIV golf financiers.

It is also part of the FDICโ€™s role to monitor banks capital requirement levels to keep the insolvencyโ€™s/failures from happening.

Look, I canโ€™t stand Elon, but someone needs to check in on the FDIC & make sure theyโ€™re doing their jobs from time to time. Iโ€™m not sure thatโ€™s been happening. Maybe being reviewed by DOGE will improve their adherence to their very important work responsibilities. Weโ€™ll see.

Why is making sure the FDIC is doing their job a bad thing? If FDIC isnโ€™t staying on task & proactively monitoring banks capital requirements & RE-acting after thereโ€™s a problem, then 08 could happen all over again & theyโ€™ll be using us to bail all of the banks out again.

I understand the role of the FDIC. They were very busy cleaning up the mess post sub-prime mortgage backed security market collapse & bank failures 08. Maybe checking in to be sure theyโ€™re keeping up w our banks capital reqirements (doing their job) before they collapse is a good thing.

This, I can live w. Been awhile since anyone checked on them. The banks recklessness that caused the 08 mortgage/housing crisis. Need to check & make sure theyโ€™re maintaining solvency so we donโ€™t pay for another bailout. China bought ALOT of our debt back then.
