Benito Biden's Blackshirts Will Investigate Companies for 'Illicit Profits'
The Department of (in)Justice announced Thursday that it will begin investigating companies for earning what it believes to be excessive profits.
The goal of the initiative, according to the
DEMOCRAT-directed department, is to prevent companies from "overcharging customers under the guise of supply chain disruptions."
The problem, of course, is that the supply chain disruptions are quite real—and inflation across the economy is the result of both those large-scale issues and government actions, including the
DEMOCRAT regime's $1.9 trillion stimulus bill and protectionist policies.
To the extent that private companies are raising prices, higher prices are the market's way of reacting to the scarcity of goods caused by
DEMOCRAT-imposed lockdowns, not evidence of price gouging.
