"A New York man coughed on FBI agents and claimed he has the coronavirus on Monday as they arrested him for allegedly lying about the sale of $12,000 worth of medical supplies. Authorities say Baruch Feldheim, 43, of Brooklyn allegedly sold much-needed supplies such as N95 respirators and other personal protective equipment to a New Jersey doctor at 700% markup of their original price.

Sure arrest this guy. When Pfizer does it, it's just business.

Econ 101 says this is the rule of supply and demand

Econ 101 assumes consumers are rational. If you took Econ 2 you would have learned about market externalities

Only Econ 101 was required at pipe fabricating school

Negative. That's macro econ.
You're thinking of 1021.

And externalities aren’t illegal. Every sale made affects the FMV of the goods
I think it’s a shitty thing what the guy did, I’m just not sure it should be illegal

The number of supposedly educated people whom are unable to grasp simple rules for gathering data is what astounds me.
Why?
Because the pipefitters oddly seem to intrinsically get it.

I’d have less of a problem if it wasn’t artificial scarcity causing the supply unable to meet demand.
You wouldn’t salute the free market if someone bought all gasoline in a 100 mile radius, selling at a massive premium and buying our every shipment of gas moving in.
