At EVERY panic shortage there is a LOT of complaining by the grasshoppers. Its the fault of the retailers, the "hoarders" and a few others. Never the fault of the people who are angry because they again refused to learn from history....and that's the rub.
You're set, currently, for what you deem your families wants & needs are. Fantastic!
We are as well, however not for many years.
Several years. I'd like to have enough on hand, at pricing I can afford, to be comfortable out towards many years. For what we enjoy (wants). Without such turning into needs in the future, at pricing I don't want to pay, or can't afford then.
Some folks are far less fortunate than the both of us. For any number of reasons.
Some folks haven't been thru shortages/blights, and are just starting out.
Folks whom have been thru blight cycles & hadn't planned accordingly whom COULD HAVE, then byach&moan about hoarding/price gouging/price fixing/market manipulation & on & on & on.
Have no one to blame other than themselves.
