All the socialists who think that businesses extort 'unfair' prices from consumers should try running businesses! I mean from the cost of maintaining production and the lower revenues that tend to arise from very high prices that create high net profit margins, many businesses have a difficult time even remaining solvent. With that in mind we can see why price ceilings are so destructive. Prices have to rise with diminishing returns on production, price ceilings make production insolvent quicker

Would it be okay for Walmart to expropriate that property instead of offering the owner a price he might be interested in? With that logic, I can also steal the shirt off of you and give it to someone who needs it. Lets say you do advocate this sort of theft, it is still not logical from an economic perspective because people make mistakes.
