Can't speak for everyone, but I still remember the Nixon-Carter years. When Tarp passed, I doubled my weekly grocery list, (started buying an 1 to use and 1 for the pantry).

When Porkulus passed I started buying 1 to use and 2 for the pantry of sale items. QE1 I switched to 1 to use and 3 for the pantry of sale items. Now I am buying special sales in amounts of 4-10 depending on shelf life and family’s preferences.

Having lived through the great inflation of those years, I am pretty sure what is coming will be worse for us, since we are now retired. So just trying to get ahead of the situation as best we can.

Your points are well taken ... also it's hard to feel safe with Big Sis sweating American conservatives rather than radical Muslims.

Simulated bombs were missed by a TSA that catches every Grandmother with a large shampoo... ( according to Drudge)...that's not good.

Scary.
