President Donald Trump urged Americans not to hoard food on Sunday during a White House press conference that came just minutes after the Federal Reserve announced new steps to shield the U.S. economy from the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.
“You don’t have to buy so much,” Trump said. “Take it easy. Relax.”

Some sanity from the President for the chicken little country. cripes.
Yes he is right!
Its not food hoarding as much as toilet paper, hand sanitizer, disinfectants and soap.
The Monica Media is going to go ballistic over these comments.
Of course they are. The MSM are enemies of this nation.
It is obvious that he meant this only in reference to binge buying but
the media is naturally twisting it to include every aspect of COVID-19.
They can all go lick the bathroom floor.
Two things really stuck out in the last two briefings.
1) Only the stupidest people that can be found become reporters.
2) Everyone in the country is stepping up ... except the MSM.
If the panic buying/hoarding doesn’t stop, then at some point the Government will be FORCED to implement rationing, no way around it.
over time, continuously feeling frazzled could trigger heart attacks, strokes, and even suicidal thoughts.
In regards to stocking food, what is hoarding? Government recommendations speak of weeks and months of food. Okay, the problem is all of the people that don’t already maintain stores are out suddenly buying everything at once. Supply and demand will resolve itself, but if things are disrupted, better to be prepared than begging for government handouts.
Government rationing? Of what? Buy what you feel you and your family should have on hand for emergencies. Do we really want the government telling us that we can only buy one can of vegetables per person per whatever?
By having a 10-year supply of toilet paper?

These same idiots did it with Y2K and 2012 and can always be counted on to overreact. Idiots!
REMAIN CLAM ...
We will soon find the people who hacked spellcheck and deal with them apropreateley (hate these long words).
That is one of the funnier stockpiles. We’ve got about three months at the moment. I’m happier with a year’s supply of everything. Serious preppers would look to more.
I’ve had people get mad at me for stating simply that I am not worried, just taking proper precautions and keeping abreast of the situation as it develops. That seems far healthier to me than obsessing over every last
rumor from the Daily Mail, Twitter, etc. The panic pushers are harming themselves by constantly being in stressed out mode.
We’ve got no food
We’ve got no jobs
OUR PETS HEADS ARE FALLING OFF!!!!!!
