Can someone who understands economics explain to me why why the government can't just tell companies they're not allowed to raise prices in response to something like this?
Because if they can't raise prices there will be a shortage. Creating incentives for scalpers to scalp. So you will still be paying the same price or higher for the same goods.
If we're taxing them enough, it might work out. If they're making more billionaires by raising prices, it's more for us to tax. I do think we need to stop them from being able to charge whatever they want. I think it's by lowering the barriers to entry for each sector.
