#RobertWolf is the former Chairman and CEO of USB Investment Bank. On #FOX #News he described #DonaldTrump “the most powerful #socialist in #America.” This assessment is factually based on his #ExecutiveOrders imposing #PriceControls and partial nationalization of 30 #HighTech manufacturers, such as #Intel and U.S. Steel, that was legislated by the #CHIPS and #Science Act that he rammed through #Congress last year. https://www.joemygod.com/2026/08/fox-guest-trump-is-nations-most-powerful-socialist/

Economists will tell you that price caps stop markets working properly... which is all very well, but when we can see that market society is not working well for the majority of the population, some focussed policy of price caps looks increasingly politically expedient (not least of all as there are all sorts of examples of prices caps not causing the economic sky to fall in).
Markets can be modified, have been modified and should be!

@treleanor
Great news. But I don’t get it. How can a ‘supplier’ just ‘decide’ what the payment should be within such a wide margin of choices? Is this evidence that Energy Suppliers are having a ‘lend’ of us all? Should we now all congregate into a block and ‘demand’ they lower their prices because we now they can? Where are the ‘regulations’ and ‘legislation’ to control these wildly fluctuating prices? I’m not only confused, I’m getting angry here… -

"Until recently, the politically explosive nature of inflation had been forgotten in wealthy countries. It was often dismissed as a problem afflicting less mature democracies and developing countries. Yet inflation turned out to be the Achilles’ heel of what was otherwise a strong U.S. economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic—and it sank the Democrats’ bid to retain power in 2024. Donald Trump, the U.S. president-elect, triumphed in part because he signaled to voters that he understood their economic distress. For their part, the Democrats failed to acknowledge the depth of the crisis and shied away from fully embracing policies that could have relieved the pressure on ordinary Americans.
Still, the Democrats’ defeat was not inevitable. Other incumbent parties succeeded in winning elections in 2024 because they took steps beyond adjusting interest rates to tackle inflation and because they clearly communicated to their publics what they were doing to keep prices down. Governments in Mexico and Spain embraced bold measures, including price controls, subsidies, and both tax cuts and tax hikes. Not only did these actions help curb inflation, but they also spurred the ruling parties to victory and, in the case of Spain, helped stave off right-wing extremists. These cases show that in the fight against inflation, there are real alternatives to relying on monetary policy alone. Governments can step up and protect citizens against cost shocks in times of disasters, bolstering not only the economy but also the ruling party’s chances at the ballot box."

Instead of price controls to prevent gouging, why doesn't the government build up reserves and stockpiles?

"Last week, Kamala Harris announced she would go after corporate price gouging. Trump promptly accused her of seeking price controls. Much of the economic establishment — which justifiably believes price controls don’t work — went berserk.
But Harris is not advocating price controls. She’s advocating just the opposite (see my interview, below)."

I am watching with deep amusement as all the internet's MAGA-men try to stir up a general horror about Kamala Harris because of her proposal to institute some sort of weakly-specified constraints on price gouging. "Price controls! Communism! Fear!"
My good sirs: the last time we had price controls in this country, they were implemented by (checks notes) that infamous communist Richard Milhouse Nixon.
