  1. I wish someone would ask trump to explain the difference between Harris' "Communist price controls" and the Republican price controls imposed by Nixon in the '70s.

  2. Google "Truman socialism quote". They've been running this same playbook since before I was born.

  3.  @1247.cccccc  True, but it succeeded in the intended effects of locking in the wage/price imbalance (Nixon's controls were on both) and making sure that when inflation came back with a vengeance it would happen during the next administration. An administration that would almost certainly be (due to Nixon's other malfeasances) a Democratic one. People still blame Carter to this day, forgetting Nixon's actions and Jerry Ford's stupid WIN button. Harris' approach seems to be limited to some sectors of the economy so perhaps those sort of side effects you cite could be avoided.
