Instead of price controls to prevent gouging, why doesn’t the government build up reserves and stockpiles?

On what exactly? Also where do you store it? Like I am all for government activity to collectively stockpile and supply materials but what materials and for what purpose? Also should it be a federal project/state project/both? IDK sometimes its just easier to use price controls then it is to handle logistics.

And reported… to the House Committee on Un-American Activities.
In some seriousness, moves that bold haven’t been done since Nixon.
