“Let me be clear: To any corporation that has not brought their prices back down — even as inflation has come down, even as supply chains have been rebuilt — it’s time to stop the price gouging, giving the American consumer a break,” Biden stated.
Additionally, they argue that blaming corporations overlooks the majority of small businesses and that the recent inflation coincides with significant government spending.
