It's the go-to line but it's discouraging to see people like WaPo tow that line.

They call her anti-price gouging "communist".  No, communism is the nationalization of industry and no one is calling for the US givernment to take over food corporations.

Have any of these papers called out as communist the recent government efforts to cap insulin prices at $35?  Or this weeks' announced negotiated drug prices?  Of course not.  But they want to act like establishing grocery price caps as something different than that.
