You know you fucked up when theres a black market for basic food stocks. So many hard core socialists think they can just ignore the basic principles of economics, and mandate a price on something thinking it will make it affordable. Hell, why dont we just mandate a minimum wage of 75K a year in the US. Voila, poverty is gone...right?
