—You’re going to have to explain why you think one form of intervention is bad, and the other good.—

Allowing prices to go up because greedy speculators are shipping it overseas to non-Americans is not intervention, it is NON-intervention (letting a house burn down is non-intervention, putting the fire out before it does too much damage is intervention).
