50+ years of deregulation means there is no entity or government agency that can protect us from price gouging. Remember how prices soared during COVID because of supply chain issues? I do.
And then when the supply chain issues smoothed over and returned to somewhat normal, did the prices coming back down? Nope. Companies now kept prices high because they could.
