I don't think you do.

Scalpers exist thanks to capitalist principles.

Supply and demand.

They are just trying to profit same as manufacturer and retailers.

But that gives us an opportunity to see how much we actually hate the idea of someone taking huge profits.
We are ingrained and trained to be ok with retail doing that, but when someone we haven't be programmed to think it is ok does the same thing, our eyes are opened.

I know like you feel you've made some astounding realization, but economics isn't exactly open to your pseudo-speculations or your dishonest argument. "Supply and demand" has been parroted during the pandemic so frequently by scalpers who haven't taken a college level course in economics.
