See this content in the original post

Too few companies hold too much power over the food system. These monopolies push down prices paid to workers and farmers, raise prices for consumers, and make supply chains more vulnerable. 

Watch Open Markets and the producers behind Food, Inc. 2 in a roundtable discussion on how monopolies took over our food system and what policy makers can do to break them up. 

Featuring Eric Schlosser, producer of Food Inc. 2 and author of Fast Food Nation, Max Miller, attorney advisor to Federal Trade Commissioner Alvaro Bedoya, and Claire Kelloway, food program manager for the Open Markets Institute.

The conversation was moderated by Marcia Brown, food and agriculture reporter at POLITICO.
