Gas are now an important resources in our daily life. But the price of it are increasing because it is now harder and harder to find. We want everyone to shared and received the equal amount of gases in a affordable price but what will happens if someone has a monopoly over the gases system. Well the price would gone high up. So someone would have to create a rules to control the price of the gas to make a fairer gas price and equally to everyone. Side: Yes

Two methods usually encompass the regulation of prices, price ceiling and price floor, although noble and good intentioned, both always fail because price ceilings only lead to shortages while price floors only lead to surpluses, so depending on the intentions of the regulation, I would assume price ceilings would be used given the high gas prices.
