Your right about factory shortages. I'm right about neckbeards clearing shelves of ammo to resell at inflated prices, like it or not, it's happening and has happened in the past.And how does that take away someone's freedom to buy or not buy what these "hoarders" (at least you didn't say "neckbeards") are selling? Every single day I choose to pay a price for something or not pay the price. No one has taken away my freedom to buy or not buy. My choice to not buy creates an opportunity for someone else to buy that item.
Not only that but there's no verifiable evidence of this claim that a certain segment is "hoarding" ammo. I have no doubt it occurs but I have serious doubts it occurs to an extent great enough to affect pricing over the long term. On the other hand, there is verifiable and measurable evidence that millions of new shooters are creating a greater demand for ammo, certain political factors drive increased ammo sales, raw material shortages create ammunition shortages, and other factors create shortages as well.
The same scenario is occurring in the housing market. Increased demand in certain areas drives housing prices sky high. It isn't because "neckbeards and hoarders" are out there buying up houses to resell. Pickup prices are up because of shortages. It happens in various markets with all sorts of products.
ALL. THE. TIME.

I have some problems with that. Personally, I hope they have to wind up eating the stuff. It is what it is though. That's their business model, and it's a free country. My real issue is with those that purchase from them. If the buyers would just stop buying, it would fix itself in about 2 weeks.
If somebody else would just change their behavior, y'all would be happy and ammo prices would go down.
How inconsiderate of the jerks to make a profit. How shortsighted these buyers are, trying to stock up at any cost, in case there becomes zero availability.
We need some AOC-inspired economics in the gun world.
Well, **** me, I didn't know it wasn't okay to hope certain business models fail. I also wasn't aware it wasn't okay to inform the uninformed about certain things, especially when something was a pretty good deal and even more so when they were getting a ****ing.
Son of a *****. The things ya learn.
Do what ya want - free country, choices, etc....
Would you apply your same economic principles to the current housing market?
