Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), who is backed by the Democratic Socialists of America, is set to introduce the “Emergency Price Stabilization Act,” which would give the White House powers to control prices for rent and housing, food, energy, and health care. Bowman said it’s important that the federal government “act quickly to protect people from the kinds of price shocks we are seeing now,” and goes further to say that the bill is a first step “to redesign our economy”. Bowman added that “we need a revolution in governance.”

    That's fairly common for politicians. They are constantly sitting around trying to figure out how they can waste more money and control more people.

    Has Bowman read AS? Sounds like the first steps toward directive 10-289.

    Now Non-Fiction indeed!

    I think the Dems have too much spare time on their hands and they are using it to think up new tortures for us.

    The Bill has 19 backers. Consisting of the usual suspects.
    More like “act quickly to protect people from the consequences of their piss poor voting habits.”
