Kamala Harris says she’s going to lower prices.

[SweetSue92]

For the fucktards who think this is a good idea, price controls never fail to create shortages.

She's just as stupid as we thought she was. Oh wait...more stupid.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

I am not kidding. She thinks she can do this, first. Secondly, these walking dunderheads never heard of bread lines?

Pure fucking Communism

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Wage & Price controls:
ALWAYS A DISASTER.
Companies and jobs will go away...

So................food prices are just fine.
Corporate wage and price controls are just fine?

Then why has your dear leader and his cult been whining about?
Crying to the "gubmint" to do something?

 

[Rambunctious]

Nixon did a price and wage freeze for 90 days it was a disaster... he even admitted so late in life...
"it did long lasting damage to the economy" Richard Nixon.....

 

[SweetSue92]

^^^
Will be the first one to bitch when he can't find his Hot Pockets.

If people vote for literal bread lines I don't know what to say. I just don't

 

[BluesLegend]

In related news electricity is up nearly 5% this year, are public utilities price gouging or is it the shit Dem policies?

 

[SweetSue92]

So................food prices are just fine.
Corporate wage and price controls are just fine?

No. You open the gas lines, first. You don't go to PRICE FIXING

Help the level of ignorance here

 

[CrusaderFrank]

I love how she campaigning against the horrific, crushing policies of the current Administration!!

 

[SassyIrishLass]

If they can't charge what they need

They won't make what WE need

Every time, every where, throughout history

History shows it causes shortages and chaos

 

[Cellblock2429]

Not THE price, but a cap.
Just like they would in a natural disaster to prevent people desperate people from getting ripped off.

/—-/ And what if the cost of growing, harvesting, packaging, and shipping food items exceeds the cap?
Aren’t democRATs famous for exceeding the government budget caps?

 

[SweetSue92]

History shows it causes shortages and chaos

It's very bad. Very, very bad.

These dunderheads will think it's amazing

 

[OldFlame]

Not sure what the problem is.

And this, folks, is what we're dealing with, and why this country will fail. Pure ignorance and stupidity.

 

[SassyIrishLass]

It's very bad. Very, very bad.

These dunderheads will think it's amazing

Where would it stop? First food, then energy, on to rent and housing?

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

I don't know how old you are, but most of the board here is old enough to remember Nixon doing exactly that in the 70s with gasoline. If you weren't around then, perhaps you should read up on that and see how well it worked out.

Old enough to remember.............
AND we STILL have that policy today.

In which case......

Democrat Communists win again !!

 

[SweetSue92]

I'm doubting this...
Not because I don't think she has some sort of desire....

But because she has no platform to date.

She wishes to be elected upon her identity alone.

This guy's a WH reporter.

They floated this maybe to get the reaction before tomorrow's hard launch

It's bad. The reaction is bad. Except for the dunderheads, they think "free" stuff is always great until the bread lines are miles long. That's how they learn

 

[SweetSue92]

We're literally living in Atlas Shrugged right now. When 'price fixing' doesn't work, they'll still blame the 'greedy corporatists' and impose even more penalties and sanctions until they insist they have to take it all over in order for it to work 'right'. And these morons will follow them right over the cliff.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Why do all marxists think that when they're in power, their marxist dreams will flourish? They never have in the history of the world. The level of stupidity is astounding.

The Soviets tried it...a collosal failure
