Government, Tyranny, and Shampoo

Shampoo

One would not usually expect to see the words tyranny and shampoo in the same sentence, but the actions by this government should no longer surprise you. The Department of Justice refuses to allow the potential “monopoly” of Suave and VO5 to take over the “value shampoo” market and potentially allow for the pricing out of other competitors and, they estimate, eventually increasing the price of such $.77 shampoos by up to 5%! Such evils cannot be allowed in our society, and if that means destroying property rights and freedom so be it!
