I was in college when the Toilet Paper Shortage of 1973 hit.
Unbelievable that you couldn’t find TP, and any shipment that came in was quickly bought up by hoarders.Johnny Carson started the rumor...which was false until it became true :)
Maybe that’s why I always keep an extra case of TP on hand, LOL, don’t want to relive the days of having to improvise.
Current population of Venezuela: 29 million.
This move will keep the regime afloat for about another week.
Don't recall that one, but, then again, my mom was a major TP hoarder as far back as I can remember. She used to pack a bunch in their car when they would make the Snowbird run from Mass. to Fla. in November.
