   This lead story in the #BrokenTimes sets up a gang of strawmen & throws in a match. Harris never calls for price controls. The #BrokenPost said she did, never corrected it; that's quoted here: how misinformation spreads.
   Second, no one promised this would bring prices down immediately. It is obviously for the future. The Times presumes otherwise. Third, everyone knows the gouging is not at the retail level but among manufacturers, but here the Times quotes Target.
