Now Kamala Harris has come out with price controls, allegedly to stop inflation. They didn’t work for Nixon; in fact, they caused inflation. They haven’t worked for New York City (rent controls), going back to just after World War II. It is not surprising she (or her handlers) came up with these. After all, not that many columns ago I remarked that governments are the only legal monopolies. Price controls are like monopolies; hence, what government employees understand.
