Shyne says the solution to price gouging is simple

Price Gouging – it is a practice by some retailers to raise the prices of goods without due process or when the items are scarce. It is one of the issues that the government is addressing with merchandisers, but no definitive solution has been reached up to today. Speaking on the issue earlier today was Leader of the Opposition, Shyne Barrow. According to Barrow, the Prime Minister may not be too interested to address the root of the problem which he claims is high fuel prices.

Opposition Leader Barrow went on to accuse the Cabinet of being disinterested on how the cost of living is affecting the residents. He says this disinterest is due to the millionaires currently sitting in government.
