Fascism: business is owned by the private sector but tightly controlled and managed by the government.
What, no WIN buttons?
My $300 groceries cost $400 - explain that, Brandon.
So the Government creates a lot of money out of thin air and markets move to the new equilibrium point. Obviously price controls are the solution! /S
So are they gonna try ‘price controls’? That will insure shortages and rationing. Perhaps this time a scotus challenge would find the constitution doesn’t grant the feddies to power to set prices. Not even if they again erroneously claim the ‘commerce clause’ does.
Government induced shortages on the way. Enjoy the decline.
Maybe he can look at health insurance premiums first.

“Analysis of a number of major sectors across the economy show that consumers pay $90 billion in junk fees every year, including on live event tickets, internet and cable fees, apartment rentals, banking fees, auto dealer fees, and more. “
“Today, the Department of Agriculture (USDA) finalized a rule to protect the farmers and ranchers who produce meat and poultry by cracking down on processing companies’ deceptive contracts, banning retaliatory practices that prevent small producers from raising concerns or coming together in associations.”
“In addition, the FTC finalized a rule to ban auto dealers from using bait-and-switch tactics to deceive consumers and to stop auto dealers from charging hidden junk fees for services that provide no additional value.”
Nasty old fart is going to play this game at the SOTU . He will blame everyone else for the high prices but himself. He is at fault.
