No. I don’t think they do. Typically (in most states) the State has areas of Jurisdiction where and how they are allowed to do things. Then each County separately has their own areas of jurisdiction where and how they are allowed to do things. If everything functions properly, they shouldn’t get into each others way too much. State generally handles things that either: a) crosses county lines or b) crosses State Lines. Sometimes counties will work together on things though. I’m just talking in general how the powers separate.

I think the rule of thumb for “Price Gauging” is increasing prices over 10% during a State of Emergency.
But when it’s not a state of emergency, I think it’s just called “unfair”.
When meat companies artificially inflated prices after the pandemic and shipping problems were over, President Biden appealed several times to meat packing companies, “Lower your prices. Stop ripping people off!”
and he did what he was legally allowed to do to try to convince them to lower prices.
But as you saw, they ignored him. They can do that. Companies ignored some of Trump’s appeals the first time around and will likely ignore some things he asks for this time around too.
Companies do have a lot of power.
