"No they work rather poorly. They reduce the local supply of important items."

Nonsense. What do you base this on?

Ever been through a hurricane on the Texas Gulf Coast? I have. I haven't seen the shortages you talk of. You know, there are these things called roads, and things called trucks move goods along them. If prices are kept stable, people are less likely to bid up pricing in a panic. Which allowing the prices to float encourages.

That is reality, Tim. Try it sometime.
