Wartime price controls and public support shape postwar policy
The author argues that wartime controls risk fiscal laziness and worsen supply demand imbalances. He notes wartime public and congressional support was essential for effective controls, unlike in peacetime reuse after Pearl Harbor. Historical price ceilings, their crumble after V E and V J Days, and Korea show how government action in price stability fluctuates with wartime events. The piece cites OPA's rise and fall, subsequent inflation, and the mix of ceilings and stabilization efforts in the early 1950s.
