Those commie policies did do well in the 1930's though.

Your links are, as usual, not supporting your opinion.

Kamala can't even pronounce 'price gouging ', how can she do anything about it?  Her so-called economic ideas are insane. Not to mention,  she has been VP for more than 3 years and did nothing about it,  so forgive me if I doubt her sincerity now.

Is code for communist government takeover of capitalism. Any American who is a “democrat” and considers voting for Harris is a complete moron. 

Nixon tried price controls in the early 70s.  That didn’t work.

I Think Nixon never dealt with the Woke Mob,

the revised version of the dem party!

Never let a Crisis go to waste,everything they touch is a abomination. 

 

“Although the reasons for price controls may be affordability and economic stability, they may have the opposite effect. Over the long term, price controls have been known to lead to problems such as shortages, rationing, deterioration of product quality, and illegal markets that arise to supply the price-controlled goods through unofficial channels. Producers may experience losses, especially if prices are set too low”.

Sounds like you’re in favor of Control, having a Government decide what is best

Inflation  due to government overspending was the cause,  not corporate greed. Inflation that happened during Harris' term in power...
