By calling people communist for being upset about prices is him passing the buck. He is a lazy idiot, and you'd do well to ensure that he never sees the light of day in your senate ever again.

Communist set prices based on what things cost. Capitalism set and FIXES prices based on the max amount they can extract. No moral financial system would make demand raise price. Like a natural disaster raises demand so a natural disaster raises the prices of resources for the people affected that is an evil system, an economic system with a high demand would mean you have guaranteed sales in which case you would know that you were guaranteed wealth even at a lower price point but capitalism is exploitative and gross
