That is economic pressure. Them doing what they can to get as much as they want is the force of nature that the term “economic pressure” refers to.
That pressure is normally balanced by other economic forces such as the struggle to capture more market share.
So I agree with you that our grocers have gotten a lot bolder in their monopolistic positions. But I don’t think it’s from anything other than a natural economic pressure, just channeled through a market with a new shape that prevents that other pressure acting against it.
