I don’t have a problem with price-based rationing, as long as the people on the left who would normally be my allies refrain from shaming people for “hoarding” stuff. Or opportunistically price gouging, for that matter. Full confession: in the early days of the pandemic I bought toilet paper on eBay for a tidy sum. I was earning good money putting in lots of overtime at NYS call centers.
