I think this isn't quite accurate for a variety of reasons, much of it is that the federal government actually has significantly limited control of the above + what control it does have it has to pass through a hostile senate to accomplish.

- The federal government cannot force local government to build housing to increase supply, it can only try to incentivize, and housing can't be built fast enough to offset current demand

- The federal government cannot factories, particularly overseas ones, to produce more

- The federal government can, at most, go through a faster approval process for foreign baby formula; it cannot force current domestic makers to produce formula

- The federal government literally doesn't control crypto that's what the attraction of crypto was lol; its bombing is entirely crypto's fault; and the stocks have been pushing back against government regulation for ages already

- The gov't cannot set food prices

So precisely what do you expect the government to be doing here?
