The Munn vs Illinois case is a relatively old case from 1877, in which Munn challenged Illinois on its legislature of regulating maximum prizes charged on some services, and then Munn lost the case in front of the Supreme Court.

The ruling was specifically that it is not unconstitutional for the states to regulate charge for private businesses.
