Just sayin’ that if you need to dip into the last of your 2-year supply of TP in 2022 b/c society has crumbled to dust around you, you’ve got bigger problems…

We supposedly live in the richest country in the world and yet this notion of artificial scarcity still boggles my mind.

Ever go into a busy self-serve restaurant — you know, the kind where you order, pick up your food and then find a seat? Don’t you just love it when folks walk and immediately split their parties? “Johnny, take your sister and grab that table over there while your mom and I order for us”. Meanwhile, people with trays in their hands are looking for a place to sit-

Too many times I’ve had that happen and have actually finished our meals before the frantic family even gets their food —

Artificial scarcity. Looking out for number 1. Making sure I get mine.

We’ve got a broken society and no amount of toilet paper is going to clean it up…
