Economics suggests that price increases after disasters play an important role in encouraging conservation of resources in high demand and encourages extraordinary efforts to resupply resources that are vitally needed. The overall result is more efficient use of the limited amount of goods available to communities struck by natural disasters.
When price increases are capped by price-gouging laws, shortages can be the result. Shortages, in which the good is not available to some consumers at any cost, are clearly worse for consumers hit by a disaster than having the goods available only at a high price.
