If you want to check out something crazy, try the prices of building materials.

I work at a home improvement center in Kentucky and on Monday mornings we print out our weekly price change sheets. Normally there are about one hundred items in the entire store. This week there were more than one hundred pages!!!

The same thing happened last year after Florida's Month of Agony and the prices stayed pretty high for six or seven months. I hate to see what happens this time around.

I would completely and totally believe it.

Those things are in need and my guess is that their supply isn't quite what they need it to be so they will be more scarce.

Things are going to outright suck in the near term, but long term there are quite a few opportunities that will come up that AREN'T Government funded.
