This proposal is literally price controls, a socialist response to rising costs, that has failed everywhere it’s been tried.

Starr-Bills Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Just now, SCBills said: What is your point here? This proposal is literally price controls, a socialist response to rising costs, that has failed everywhere it’s been tried. And not just failed, but had dramatic & awful effects on the places where it’s been tried. 1. Is it commie or socialist? 2. There is so much inflation, prices are too high why won’t Biden/harris do anything, people are really suffering. 3. Private business controls and raises their and also reports record profits. 4. Congress (who makes the laws not the president, or presidential candidate) tries to pass a regulation to limit price gouging by companies. 5. Republicans vote against this, then continue to complain prices are too high, inflation, but free market, but too high. Brian starts to melt. 6. So she comes out against price gouging, which is consistent with her stated desire to hope the working and middle class. (And a pretty excepted response to emergency situations) 7. The right cries socialism or is communism… (which this is neither as it’s not privatization of the means of production, it’s regulation of the max profit during a time of crisis. kinda like how much emissions or how safe the product has to be to be for sale. so my point was which is it price fixing (regulation) or inflation (‘free market’). Oh wait it’s ‘attack her no matter what, why do my criticism have to be logical consistency or reasonable?’ 1
B-Man Posted August 15 Posted August 15 9 minutes ago, Starr-Bills said: 1. Is it commie or socialist? Very revealing question. 2. There is so much inflation, prices are too high why won’t Biden/harris do anything, people are really suffering. So even if it is a move that will make things much worse "Let's do something" . . . . . brilliiant 3. Private business controls and raises their and also reports record profits. The majority of businesses, especially small, are struggling to hang on. 4. Congress (who makes the laws not the president, or presidential candidate) tries to pass a regulation to limit price gouging by companies. 5. Republicans vote against this, then continue to complain prices are too high, inflation, but free market, but too high. Brian starts to melt. Brain ? Again, it just never seems to occur to you that people can vote against a measure that history has shown will make things worse, not better. 6. So she comes out against price gouging, which is consistent with her stated desire to hope the working and middle class. (And a pretty excepted response to emergency situations) Using the price gouging narrative to promote socialism, how original. Again most businesses are struggling and HAVE to charge more as THEIR costs rise, elementary school stuff 7. The right cries socialism or is communism… (which this is neither as it’s not privatization of the means of production, it’s regulation of the max profit during a time of crisis. kinda like how much emissions or how safe the product has to be to be for sale. Revealing again so my point was which is it price fixing (regulation) or inflation (‘free market’). Oh wait it’s ‘attack her no matter what, why do my criticism have to be logical consistency or reasonable?’ Playing victim again when criticized, at least you are consistent.
Joe Ferguson forever Posted August 15 Posted August 15 This is a big winner for the good team. Should have been done decades ago. Use the power of the huge Medicare population to lower prices. R’s beholden to big pharma voted against it repeatedly https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2024/08/15/medicare-releases-prices-for-first-10-drugs-subject-to-negotiations.html 1
SCBills Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Nobody supporting “price controls” on food & grocery has any clue the small margins grocery stores operate on Literally insane policy 1 2

Gregg Posted August 15 Posted August 15 It wasn't that long ago the Dems wanted to get rid of Harris. Now she is there "shining star". It's true what they say that "you can't fix stupid". Still waiting for her to give a press conference and answer questions or does Obama still not want his puppet to talk in public. 4

Sweeping statements of nonsense. Cite a source, for “Dems” wanting to get rid of Harris. She has inspired hope and yes people have rallied around her. That’s how ***** political parties work in America, (see the felon) then it’s an insult as if you are some wise man. Sigh. you mean a lying rambling nearly incoherent presser like the felon gave? I’m sure she will and when she does answer questions of the press it’s ignored or mocked so what do you want? It’s never enough the bar always moves these are not good faith questions. Here is a good example of the policy genius on the Republican side. It’s not ‘commie’ though, just ignorant. 2 minutes ago, Irv said: Harris = Obammy Puppet 2.0 Man you guys are scare of black men.

BillsFanNC Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Got Quack all riled up! Beautiful. Sorry that you cant face the reality of the socialists/commies/marxists that you support. Oh I work Quack, and I'm doing more than fine, much, much better than you are I'm certain. 2
The Frankish Reich Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Everyone wants "ideas." Most "ideas" are bad ideas. Look at what this election season has give us so far: - huge tariff increases (Trump) - no taxes on tips (Trump, now Harris) - a "strategic" Bitcoin reserve (Trump) - some kind of price controls (Harris) My takeaway: We need fewer "ideas," not more. 1 1

The idea that will help Americans is also the one no one can run on because it doesn’t promise us anything .. less spending. We get what we deserve.
The Frankish Reich Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Just now, SCBills said: The idea that will help Americans is also the one no one can run on because it doesn’t promise us anything .. less spending. We get what we deserve. True. There are sensible ideas out there. They don't treat things like Social Security and Ethanol mandates as untouchable. These real ideas will never be enacted until there is a true crisis. 1
