It's true that companies could voluntarily decide to maintain constant margins despite surging demand, but that would generate shortages or need to be addressed by creating an explicit rationing system. https://t.co/xckpVY14vl — PolitiTweet.org

Excess demand and profit-seeking by greedy corporations are not competing explanations for inflation — what happens when demand soars above productive capacity is that prices rise and profits go up. https://t.co/xckpVY14vl — PolitiTweet.org

Sometimes a situation arises where you really do want to look at price controls and rationing to cope with an emergency — I think the European natural gas situation qualifies. https://t.co/GEujCfbLwA — PolitiTweet.org
