    Just Saying:

    Even if Lidl is not a monopoly it is currently, it will become one if we let it. Just think about it:

    • they control a lot of stores
    • it is still controlled by a very rich man
    • they will soon push out many independent products for their own

    Even if we can’t outlaw making a profit from the means of production, we should at least make all critical infrastructure (like supermarkets) be owned by a in German we call them „Förderkreis” with an ethics committee where the people working there and others associated with it can democratically vote about any and all changes.

    Just some context: Lidl has this sort of campaign going on for years as of to promote their own store brands - other markets here do that too. They do the same with showing a shopping cart consisting of store brands vs brand products and on how much money u can save.

    Maybe they can use the current momentum to push this campaign more …

        Depends on the country, in Scotland it’s free.

        Well… Free at the point of use. We pay what’s called council tax which is a tax on the value of your home (even if renting) to cover services like street lamps, sewage, water, libraries, rubbish removal, etc.

        But, it’s free to use as much as you want. I could leave my taps on all day if I wanted, there’s no meter, no charge per litre. So considering I have to pay that tax just to live, water is essentially free.

        Obviously some countries have more access to water than others, but those without the worry of drought or rationing should definitely have free at the point of use water.

        Fuck private interests, fuck profiteering, water is essential for all life, socialist public controlled water for all is the way to go. You only have to look at the water scandals of England to see what private control of water gets you.

          In Germany (at least where I live) is the same. Water is basically built into my rent, and I don’t think about what I use except from an environmental perspective.

    Neither, this is a ton of colored sugar in water, not healthy in any way. 🤷‍♂️
