What's your thought on scalpers hoarding all the high demand items and reselling them at high price for big profit?
<|assistant|>
My opinion on scalpers hoarding and reselling high-demand items at high prices is that it is an unethical practice that unfairly increases the cost of living for consumers. Scalpers are taking advantage of those who legitimately need or want these items, and the profit they make from this is unjustified. It's especially detrimental to those on limited incomes or those who are already struggling financially. Furthermore, as people become wise to their tricks, scalpers often turn to more extreme techniques such as computer-automated purchases and manipulation of market prices - which is clearly unfair and needs to be addressed. Governments need to develop regulations that limit the ability of scalpers to unfairly influence the price of consumer products.
