“hey YOU caused the lockdown and if there are any shortages, YOU caused them....YOU and people like you did this....”
Sucks, doesn’t it. We stalled the spread just long enough to now have a promising cure be identified.
Actually, those of us who were watching and aware were buying stuff slowly months ahead of the Great TP Panic of March 2020.
We got the stuff when the supply chain was just fine and nobody even noticed the extra buying at the time. An extra package or two of meat here. Some extra gloves there. And before you know it, you are sitting back watching the world go to hell and not being part of it.
The shortages happened not from wise people prepping but from those with their heads in the sand who suddenly realized that they had NOTHING to live on when push comes to shove.
