I’m just not well versed in this? Where does this slippery slope end?
So price controls ok for groceries but not other things? Help me out here 😂

I think the important line is competition.
If I can go to 5 different grocery stores to buy the cheapest eggs, I would. That’s normal market dynamics and takes the thought out of price controls out of the conversation.
It’s when a large company buys up all the competitors in a location and I have no choice but to buy from them.
I would be surprised if that happens as often as you think it does, particularly with the ubiquitous convenience of home delivery, farmers markets and local farm gates. And if it’s still too expensive, buy something else…. We have chickens and get 4 eggs a day. Before that we bought from our neighbours. The point is there are always substitutes in the market. I would explore those first before reaching for the price control playbook.
