Two years ago, Clark went berserk over a Supreme Court decision that paved the way for price fixing. The 5-to-4 ruling basically threw out precedent that denied manufacturers the ability to set retail prices.

Now the other shoe is dropping. According to a Dow Jones newswire report, Maryland has a new law going into effect in October that will make it illegal for any manufacturer to tell any retailer what price to charge a customer.

Clark hopes this state law starts a groundswell that could reverse the Supremes' 2007 decision. Think about it like this: When do any of those 9 justices go out and shop like the rest of us? They have no idea what it's like for a family to balance a budget and are just plain out of touch on this issue.

Meanwhile, the Subcommittee on Antitrust, Competition Policy and Consumer Rights is looking at enacting a federal law that could overturn the Supreme Court decision.

The consumer champ eagerly awaits such a possibility.

Could there be a worse time for the American people to be stuck paying higher prices than right now?
