I believe this is in the realm of government responsibility.
As in, one of the core purposes of the social contract.
Friendly reminder that we have all kinds of laws and options governments could use to deal with this, including breaking up the monopoly strangling the industry. Instead we get a rebate for the poors and a pat on the back for everyone else.
But hey at least Gaelen Weston and his grocer buddies get to keep reporting record high profits. The shareholders must be happy.
Is this an advertisement for Koho? It’s interesting, I suppose but the „report“ is about Koho user spending habits and the use of their „buy now, pay later“ scheme. I’d never even heard of Kobo until this article.
While I don’t doubt that groceries are more expensive (for a variety of reasons), and people are struggling, this report may be biased depending on the base of users. Moreover the insertion of their scheme (which may be exclusive to Kobo unless this is referring to a simple credit card – in which case it isn’t as important as one may think) makes it look like a paid ad.
Read the article folks, not the headline.
It has increased, 109%!!! But it’s increased from 0.82% of people to 1.71% of people. This is literally not a story.
Slap a picture of the PM on an unrelated article and try to make it political when it’s essentially an advertisement.
Also, „buy now, pay later“?
How is that different than using a credit card where you essentially delay all your expenses until the monthly payment is due?
And that article has no focus. It starts with the increasing price of food leading to people using „buy now, pay later“ but then it also discuss the increased use of food delivery services like
DoorDash, Uber Eats and SkipTheDishes, where people deliberately pay a premium for having premade and delivered meals.
