Explain right now why price control wouldn't work
>>540828862>>>/bant/24838826
>>540828862Because it goes against the free market.
>>540828862You get shortages or quality degradation instead
>>540828862Only the dumbass making the product really knows how much it costs
>>540828862Government incompetence and greed.
>>540828862Because I just wont sell. Simple as
>>540828862It works for me (multi -billion cartels) but not for theeeAs the recent RAM Cartel of Samsung SK Hynix and Micron showed
>>540828862In theory, this would unironically make the resource scarce because people who extract or make them could end up extracting or making them at a loss.In reality? Jews can't profit as much by limiting their gains to just some profit
>>540828862Because the jews wouldn’t make as much money and then they couldn’t pay their goyim slaves
>>540828968>Implement price controls>People can afford things again>Market continues to exist>Don't implement price controls>People get pissed off and lynch boomers and a large percentage of the general population and take their shit>Market ceases to existNot really seeing how it's any more anti-free market than what's going on right now. It's not like America ever actually had a free market anyway.
>>540828862Now it's>we have to charge such a high margin because le marketsWith price control>we have to charge such a high margin because le goberment says soPlebs never win. Know that and stop pondering useless things like politics.
>>540828862because someone has to pay for that differential. and when you drive everything else of a certain thing out of business, the supply crtaters, making the actual price moon. and then you have to cover that difference as well and it spirals out of control, almost immediatelysage gay frogniggers
>>540828968The free market btw
>>540829911Yes, and the people who pay for it should probably be the people who fucked up the entire economy since 2008.
>>540829911so you're saying Capitalism doesn't work basically
>>540828862many countries have VAT or sales tax on everything, you could do price control by just eliminating VAT or sales tax on that good and nothing would change except lower prices. You could subsidize certain goods as a kind of negative VAT or sales tax that the government has to pay to the seller.>NOOOO, the state that burns trillions on migrants and foreign aid can't just subsidize bread for its citizens, WTF!!!!
>>540829710We used to have a free market. Not completely free but it should never be completely free.>If no price controls, no one can afford anything.Then no one will buy anything and no one will make any money. Your example doesn't even work.If your talking about the housing market, we need to stop all of the hoarding of houses by these private firms, not just force everyone else to sell cheaper so that private firms can buy more fucking houses.>>540829983These companies largely exist by either acquiring all the competition, lobbying to increase regulation in order to hinder new competitors or through some other corrupt means. It is not representative of a free market.
>>540828862Nixon & Ford tried price controls, and they didn't work. Carter tried a voluntary system and it didn't work either. Inflation is caused by the national debt and our debt based fiat money under fractional reserve banking. You vote for gibs like a dumb nigger, the jews get richer. You're a fucking retard that knows nothing.
the sellers lose incentive to be sellers and will invest their capital elsewhere
>>540828862Because scarcity will eventually make selling the product to your price-controlling nation unprofitable.Like the toothpaste said here >>540828996 once the price you pay is below that of the general market, you get either adulterated goods or nothing at all.Plus, price controls mean you practically bar that industry from developing in good years because they can't generate a cushion for R&D with constantly low, stagnant prices. So you're basically stuck, thanks to price controls, with the subpar productivity that got you high prices to begin with.
>>540828862They will work, otherwise people will execute ceos in the middle of the day
>>540830766In all your scenarios you never even consider that price control via subsidy are a possibility, maybe coupled with luxury taxes on certain goods to offset the cost (at least in part). You are price controlling only one or a few goods after all.
>>540830558>but that isn't true capitalism and free marketOfcourse it's fucking amerimutt flag. No wonder jews found you easy targets
>>540831098Shut it fucking Romanian, the gypsies found you easy targets and what have you done? Hahahaha.Also I am not an advocate for "true capitalism." I think the government should step in for workers rights and housing to not let people be treated like a resource.
>>540828862See soviet union. See vast amount of natural resources. See those resources squandered.How many prices go into just making a simple good? Many. Now try to price all good and products that make those goods. The free market keeps it all in check, without intervention.People cant and they rely on other people to be honest, which does not happen. Thus price controls squander resources.
>>540831073>price control via subsidyNo, because that means more taxes. Our dumbfuck politicians might even do something like that eventually, but it'd be another fundamentally retarded redistribution scheme.You want the price people are willing and able to pay to determine the margins, not the subsidy the government hands out. This is the shit that got us windmill parks that aren't economically viable without your taxes funding them. That's crony-capitalism, where you use taxes to fund your pal's shit ideas, not a reasonable solution to high prices.
>>540831258>gypsiesThey were our slaves just like niggers were yours. You are a nigger by your logic
>>540828862It’s antisemitic
>>540831338Your logic doesnt make any sense and if the roles were reversed for us they would be for you as well. Atleast niggers aren't Indians. I think we can all agree jeets are worse than niggers.
>>540831424>garbage is better than trashWe don't build statues for gypsies like you do for niggers
>>540831258>the gypsies found you easy targets and what have you done?They made the gypsies chattel slaves. In case you really don't know. The Habsburgs eventually freed them, but the Romanians themselves had no issue putting the migrant jeets in chains.
>>540831304maybe elecricity production should be subsidized by the state and not be a business model in the first place? If the wind farms produce electricity or not is the question.>NOOOOOOOO, Mr. Shekelstein doesn't earn enough from my energy consumption
>>540828862Because if the price you set is lower than the market price, the producers who cant make a profit at that price will simply stop producing.The result is that the price might be lower, but not enough is made for everyone who wants it.This is why every system to ever have price controls has also had shortages and black markets.This is very basic economics.
>>540831521Thats what we did until Jews changed everything. >>540831512Yes because Romania is soo much better than america. Why dont you actually look at your own country instead of coping by saying america is worse because we have more Jews.
>>540831943Because we killed jews. How many jews did america kill? You literally let them in your country
>>540829710Why do you people never seem to understand that it costs money to make things.
>>540830508This is why most western countries have subsidies on certain products.Socialists are fucking obnoxious because they put forth ideas like price controls as if they are genius revolutionary concepts that have never been tried when in reality all of this was experimented with over 100 years ago.There is no mystery here.These ideas are old and we know why they dont work.
>>540830631This too.Inflation is 1000% the result of money printing.
>>540831073But by definition that isnt price controls dummy.Subsidies are a completely different thing that works within market mechanism.By definition price controls are when the government dictates the price.If the government offers to pay has stations 10 cents per gallon of gas they sell, thats a subsidy. It brings cost down without stating explicitly what the price must be.A price control is when the government says you are not allowed to sell gas for more than $3/ gallon.Anyone who cant make a profit at that price simply doesnt sell and you get a shortage.
>>540831928>maybe elecricity production should be subsidized by the stateThere would be no need without Thatcher's merit order system, where you pay the price the most expensive producer demands across the EU.Throw in boomer panic over nuclear (the cheapest, least land-wasting), and the state's disposition to treat any growing new tech as a business until it's too late and they're practically moneyed interest and you have a lot of levers to fix prices without ever needing to subsidize anything.
>>540832448Let's take your petrol station example as a mechanism what I propose:>The market says a gallon is around 4 dollars right now.>The state says it should cost 3 dollars.>The dollar gets handed back to the consumer after purchase after producing a receipt to the relevant agency: A subsidy for the consumer, not seller (I mistyped in the other post unfortunately), similar to a cash back system like a bottle deposit.The consumer pays 3 dollars, the seller charges market price. The price is carried by the tax payer like a subsidy to any industry.
>>540833000That'd be a good way to make fuel cheaper for businesses who already get a double-tax relief for their fuel expenses in Europe (tax write-off and VAT refund) with no increase in productivity on oil supply itself and no incentive to pass on the gains to the taxpayer who funds the subsidy. He just pays for indirectly for the cheaper fuel he may not even use because who knows if the tax burden and inflation allows him to buy a car? He's taxed for it anyways.
>>540833000So you're still paying four dollars because the government now needs to produce this one dollar rebate by taxing you.Genius
