"It’s hard to exaggerate how bad Kamala Harris’s price-gouging proposal is" - Editorial board of Jeff Bezos owned Washington Post

Gouging out the truth
A similar piece by the Washington Post Editorial Board excoriated Harris for "blaming big business" for inflation. But several prominent economists believe big business played a major role in inflation following the onset of the pandemic. For example, two economists at the University of Massachusetts published a journal article arguing that "US COVID-19 inflation is predominantly a sellers’ inflation that derives from microeconomic origins, namely the ability of firms with market power to hike prices." Other research found that, in 2020 and 2021, "corporate profits accounted for more than 50% of food price increases, whereas they accounted for only 11% of increases in the four decades prior." - Judd Legum in Popular Information
