use price controls to eliminate inflation

All price controls have ever done is stagnate supply. Look at the "rent control" meccas of SF and NYC; there's little housing available.

supply stays same irregardless. only so much raw materials and manpower on earth, yes we can run out of it. if price controls are instituted, meaning can only sell a product for a certain price, the ultra rich can stand to make a few less billions. in NYC there is lack of housing available not due to rent control which controls a small amount of apartments, it has a finite amount of land.
