Goya Foods CEO Bob Unanue accuses government of using inflation to 'enslave us for their own greed and power'

Goya Foods CEO Bob Unanue blames the Biden administration for incentivizing the country not to work and contributing to labor shortages on "Tucker Carlson Tonight."

"At the core of inflation, and it’s out of control – especially in food –  is evil, a desire to control us," Unanue told host Tucker Carlson. "When I was a child, my parents said ‘never take candy from a stranger.’ And they’re giving out candy, incentivizing people not to work. They’re taking away our purpose, our spirit, our reason to get up every day. They’re doing it without their own candy, they’re taking our candy, and using it to incentivize us not to work. That’s very inflationary."

Rising food prices have been one of the most visceral reminders of red-hot inflation, which has created severe financial pressures for most U.S. households. Food prices accelerated to a new four-decade high this summer, forcing Americans to cut out everyday items they can no longer afford.
