Having a government monopsony buyer might not technically be an imposition of prices controls, but the effect is nearly the identical.

You have very little faith in capitalism if you think consolidation of customer buying power will kill an industry. It just doesn't work that way. I spent my life doing busness in consolidating industries... it's not always pretty but it works itself out.
