It should be quite obvious to any one that government price control means just that government sets the price. Just like Nixon did in the 70's. That is what government price controls means. You can google it if you like. Words do have meanings, I know it is annoying but words do have meanings. I am not a bag of water even thou the human body is 95% percent water. traiffs are not price controls even thou they have the effect of raising prices.

"traiffs are not price controls"

When a tariff is instituted it affects the price therefore it exerts some control over it therefore it is indeed a price control.

Yes, words do have meaning.
