Huh? You're suggesting that theres any way to defraud someone by selling things at marked up prices still?
if you sell something with dishonest marketing techniques in order to price-gouge, doesn't that meet your definition of "defraud" ?
like selling a used car without revealing pertinent information
Now you went from "price gouging" to using deception to price gouge! Define both.
Caveat emptor.
i've been using "deception" as my primary example this whole time
Define both and explain how price gouging is deceptive as opposed to not price gouging, and define "dishonest marketing techniques" and how and why it is deception.
do you have any opinion regarding "anti-trust" laws ?
Yes, they are necessary to curb and curtail monopoly and cornering of markets.
if price-gouging is not a type of scam
what is the "harm" in "monopoly" ?
why would such a thing need to be "curtailed" ?
are "free-markets" an automatic "good" ?
Monopolies control a vast majority of the market.
Price gauging can be done by anyone who "overpriced" their offers, be it a mogul or a nobody.
Free markets are an automatic good. Freedom is superior to slavery. Monopolies are known since ancient times to be harmful if they eliminate competition or corner a market.
