Don't know what that guy is on about but there is a real danger in just capping prices, I don't think this goes far enough. Capping prices is just squeezing one side of the tube but not solving any problems, you need to fix the conditions that lead to the price gouging. It's not like it all the sudden dawned on pharmaceutical companies to gouge people, they've always wanted that.
If you want something to be available at a reasonable price in the quantities people need, you've got to find that cause and fix it, high prices are the result of a problem and not the cause of a problem.
