My local grocery store is closing for remodeling so they have several days of sales to clear inventory. People come in buying up everything just because it’s on sale. It looks a bit dystopian with mostly empty shelves. People are running around grabbing everything.

I thought, if this were a real food shortage, people would be fighting for last scraps. People would be fighting for scraps after 3 days and after week I’d see total war break out.

Things are more fragile than they seem.
