Shops can help society by offering similar and reasonable prices for basic needs
Government & Parliament advice that all shops to offer a discount or similar price range for basic needs like bread, flour and eggs. They may advice a price range to basic need for a reasonable time period like 3 months. After everything finishes we can say"We are So Glad We Had This Time Together"
Same basic foods like flour or bread have very different prices in different shops. At least they can fix a price or set a reasonable price range for some of these basic foods. This means some companies will make less profit but they will help their customers. With the current situation vulnerable people are walking further to find available or cheaper food because of their budgets or availability of foods. With this solution they can go to nearer shops and spend less time outside. Thank you all
