And I'm just as sure that Albertson's-Safeway, Wal-Mart, Winco, Fred Meyer and their pharmacies that have more than $25 million in gross sales are only going to be competing with each other in Oregon so they will all just pass on that 2 1/2% increase in prices to the bottom of the food chain.  

 Being on Social Security, Disability, WIC, TANF, or minimum wage will just be a little harder. 

 Too bad. The 'public service' Unions need the money.
