Price control
From Conservapedia
(Redirected from Price controls)
A price control is a law or regulation that limits the maximum price that can be charged for a good or service. Historically its use in free enterprise economies has mostly been limited to times of war, but has also been imposed in times of peace as a misguided way of controlling the economy.
363 federal court decisions discuss "price controls" and the "Fifth Amendment," which includes the protection of the Takings Clause against a deprivation of contract without just compensation, but only 61 federal court decisions discuss "price controls" and a right to privately contract.[1]
