Price Controls… Let's Talk.

If you've been following the headlines, you know that "price controls" have made an appearance. While this is not a political podcast, it "is" a podcast about all things money which includes the economy. Therefore, anything in the political world that has to do with the economy I believe is on topic for the show. My goal is to never tell you what to think about any issue, but just give you some considerations and allow you to come to your own conclusions. I understand price controls sound good on the surface. How nice would it be if companies can only charge us a certain price for goods and services we want? This is the game politicians from both sides love to play. Say stuff that "sounds good" and then hope people don't dig into the comments and their implications any further. I assume my crowd who listens to this podcast is NOT like that. I assume you want to form your own thoughts and are always on the quest for pieces of information to consider within your thought creation. Time to talk price controls!
