What's happened to Rethug's beloved free-market principles?

Snip from article:

Dr. Mark Dowell, Natrona County’s health officer, said Wednesday that the shortage here was “desperate” and that shipments here were “disappointingly low.”

Officials across the country have vented frustration about states and governors having to bid against each other to get the equipment their hospitals and doctors need. Sen. Chris Murphy, a Democrat from Connecticut, told Kaiser Health News that the bidding wars between states were like “Lord of the Flies,” referring to a novel in which children attempt to govern themselves and instead become feral.


I guess that invisible hand is the short-fingered 100% political hand of tRump......

That boy ain't right.
