  1. Disagree. Both are appropriate measures during a shortage. I'm not arguing that there should be price gouging going on, but a doubline of the price of toilet paper is appropriate to dissuade hoarding.
  2. Smart and Final, Lowes, and Home Depot all had self imposed rationing in place for toilet paper, water, and sanitizer. Now they were all out of toilet paper and sanitizer at 6 am this morning, but at least they are responding as best they can.
  3. FWIW, I went to 4 different stores this morning looking for toilet paper. Everyone was completely sold out. I was able to pick up water and paper towels however. And at Walmart, I bout 8 boxes (2 cases of 4 each) kleenex for $14 out the door - which is overpriced under normal circumstances, but completely fair. Honestly, businesses need to really increase the prices of these items that are becoming scarce, and institute reasonable rationing. Doing neither will lead to violence eventually.
  4. The man is an idiot and will not listen to common sense advice. He is now a vector spreading it around the White House and everywhere he travels.
  5. Peanut butter is good to stock up on. It's calorie and nutrient dense, doesn't go bad at room temperature, and is inexpensive.
  6. I went to Lowe's and Smart and Final (mini-Costco) and they were completely wiped out of toilet paper.
  7. You'll probably be fine. But if you have coronavirus, are you willing to spread it to others?
  8. It's for the best, even if it means reduced income for the family. We are lucky - my wife is a stay at home mom. If Nevada or Clark County decides to cancel school for an extended period of time, we should be able to manage.
  9. He's holding the hat the minister was probably holding just prior, potentially shedding the virus onto Trump.
  10. You joke but I'm sure some people are seriously throwing this out there as a legit theory of the virus.
  11. Trading halted for 15 minutes. Currently down 7.2 percent. Much confidence in the Trump administration's response to multiple bad things!
  12. The team should terminate his contract and be blacklisted from all the other teams for life.
  13. I'm Irish which basically means I"m French which is basically Italian which is basically African from what I understand.
