I have stocked-up on everyday items, I have a 180 day supply of required medication and my spare bedroom is filled with everything I will need to survive the next commodity shortage. You may think that I am hoarding, but I am preemptively protecting and providing for my family if the need should arise. I hope that nothing will happen, but just in case, I hope you guys are also taking precautions for the next round of "POSSIBLE" shortages. Be Safe and proactive.
Hoarding is never an answer, but a problem to your neighbors and friends. It's a narcissistic selfish act to store items you don't need and others can use. It's doubly worse to encourage others to engage in the same behavior. STOP YOURSELVES!
