I just said that the price increase is a result of all the paranoid running for the supplies.

I remember in early 2009 I wanted to go shooting but couldn't because ammo selves were bare. This time I can at least go if I decide to, though .223 and 9mm is scare already.

I used to work at Wal-Mart, at the home office in Bentonville.

I can't swear to what Wal-Mart is doing today, but I can guarantee that they regularly did raise prices in the past.

Like the idiots who are buying up gold now, it's a great investment.

Not entirely. The price of metals used in ammo has been going up since 2008. The dollar has been losing value.

The Romnesia crowd won't even know who there, where they're at or how magnets actually work(they still think it's MAGIC).
