Again with the government....
they call Benny boy before Congress...the market falls. Congress...get..the..hell..out.
And states, don't be as dumb as the feds...price limiting and fixing? Are you F-in CRAZY? All that does is ensure that your state is in debt FOREVER. You limit the cost of items by subsidizing the market because "times are tough"...well what if they get worse? Or even more horrible, what if they don't recover for years? Where will you state be then? I guess Americans get what they deserve....sad, sad.
Quote:
It isn't only the federal government that is trying to fix the economy. Across the country, from Vermont to Alaska, state and municipal governments are doing what they can to ease the burden for Americans who are increasingly out of work and unable to pay their bills.
One controversial solution being considered is a move back to price controls. The New York Legislature and the San Francisco City Council are considering expanding rent controls. Some politicians in Vermont are trying to limit the price of milk. And in Alaska, a bill to cap oil prices is pending in the state legislature.
