Ehh yeah capitalism but more like by contract.

This is why sovcits are such a prevalent thing in this country. Because so much of your life is based on contracts with the state or private orgs for various things.

Take hospitals. Yeah they gouge, because you sign a contract. Speeding ticket? Contract.

Court order? Contract.

You’re partially right tho. It’s not illegal to sell people a shitty product for an exorbitant price when these ppl are desperate.
