    but, I think we could get somewhere having a maximum amount you’re allowed to raise your prices by in a single year and how long you have to take to get there

    We already have this. It’s called a free market and when you raise prices too high your competition takes all your business. It’s beautiful and everybody hates it due to multiple decades of anti-free-market propaganda.

        I like how he keeps commenting the same nonsense and people are just ignoring it. Like obviously the “free market” prices for lots of goods were wrong. That’s why people are pissed and companies are being forced to lower them.

        Supply and demand do balance out… in the long run. The problem with that is (and what Libertarians never understand) in the long run we are all dead.

          Libertarians are all fucking morons. They think humanity will react with good intentions only. It’s a mental disorder.
