There is no such thing as price gouging, It is a made-up fiction of feverish progressive/lefty/Marxist/socialist/communist/murderers’ minds! The only way there could be price gouging is if the state sets it up and approves of it. Then the gouging begins. All other sales on the free market are freely made in accordance with the laws of supply and demand. Free pricing is the only way to distribute the goods to the people with the strongest desires for the goods.

BTW, the price ceiling gouging laws never work the way people want them to work. There is always a shortage of goods that way.
