Gouging was the nice c-store owners around New Orleans who raised their gas prices to around $6 a gallon as Katrina was moving towards the city and people were evacuating and needing the fuel. What is going on now is simply economics. Sprinkle that with a bit of paranoia and there is a recipe for lists being made.

Interesting group. Who's got a bunker?

You don't have to pay higher prices. Save your money prices should come down when the credit card bills come in or the people paying crazy prices. . .

First off, that isn't gouging either.

Second, I was there and didn't see what you're describing.

You are contradicting yourself.

If you want to sell something for a high price you are free to do so. I would never want that freedom to change, It is when an individual, goes out and buys up all the ammo, loading supplies, mags, etc. making them scarce and at the same time driving the prices up for everyone then sells them for an unreasonable price. I have no use for someone like that. I never mentioned anything about a business or a supplier buying to stock their shelves. They provide a service and compete in the market. That is the difference. Also, i said someone who cares nothing at all for others, is a parasite. I still stand by that. These are the people ruining this country. If it is taking advantage of the 49%of those who work and pay taxes so they can live off of others or gougers. Both are the same in my opinion. Both take advantage of others. For those of you who seem to have trouble reading and comprehending what I just said. To the smart ***** who Is the grammar/typing skills police. I got my point across. Even though I used one paragraph to do it. If you don't like it don't read it. i was wise enough to make it without you so far.

Yeah well its become apparent that you aren't bright enough to practice deception.

Hit the enter key from time to time.

The beauty of the free market is that no one has to care about anyone else but everyone gets their needs met. So its apparent you still don't know what you're talking about, komrade.
