That is fucking rich. You obviously never tried buying something in the USSR. Or when rationing was in effect during WW2. Or medicinal alcohol during prohibition. All government regulated supply resulting in a very expensive secondary market. Black markets thrive under systems other than capitalism where price gouging is the exception rather than the rule.
- perceptronas 7y agoYes you are right. Even with laws preventing price gouging people will sell/buy what they want. If sellers/buyers cannot do that in government regulated market - they will do that in the black markets
