Supply and demand cannot be changed by government edict.
Every price control leads to shortages—through thousands of years of history. See Thomas Sowell’s book “Basic Economics”.
My prayers are with the people of Kentucky.

I read Dr. Sowell's "Basic Economics" about 4 months ago and was stunned by how well he instructs in such a simple -easy to understand- manner for neophytes like myself.
"Basic Economics" should be required reading for all U.S. Legislators (maybe the Constitution should be too).

Freaking retards. I saw idiots at every gas station I passed filling up everything they owned. I WILL NOT be part of the herd.
