    It feels a bit “least we could do” ish?

    They’re not setting standard size scales for basic products or establishing price floors based on wholesale/production costs, much less intervening to increase supply or reduce overhead costs.

    This is a bit like the surgeon generals warning on a pack of cigarettes. Nice, I guess. But hardly a game changer.
