i also have a masters degree in economics and can clearly see that yours did not teach you much. go back to school and read basics, you don't need a master's degree for that. learn about unlimited wants and scarce resources and their allocation through supply and demand. learn what supply and demand is in the first place. then read about what happens when natural laws of supply and demand are replaced by stupid individuals who think they are smarter than society as a whole and that they can decide what to supply and in what quantities and at what price.  if you don't like it, tough; you can't change laws of nature, just like you can't stop winter from coming even if you don't like cold.
