The President made that quite clear.

Mr Famous Stock Market Nostradumas, please expound on your vast knowledge of shareholders profiting from shortages when the stock price goes down.

For extra credit, tell us whether Edgewell's industries would be better or worse to invest in during a recession.

Seriously, though, yet another challenge in this post-pandemic dystopia.

There's a shortage of sunscreen and sunburn products as well. I had a worker tell me that they only stock it when it's in season. It's the middle of June. I don't know how widespread it is, but locally it's hard to find anything.

As I've suggested before, people should look into what the natives were using for tampons. I don't think women should be making their own, but hopefully, there are some smart, resourceful business minded people out there who can come up with a solution using ingredients that are native to our land, so we don't need to import them. It won't be cheap, but when you have shortages, you have to switch to the next best option. Or at least have a fall back plan for the nation until we can get things back under control.


Gotta say, Joe Biden has really changed the game for Americans. It used to be set to easy. People are going to have to actually use their brains, critically think, make difficult choices... I'm not happy about it, but people were complaining that Americans got too dumb. Well, exercising your brain is the best way to sharpen that muscle. Our adversaries, especially Putin, should be afraid actually.

I'm not at all helpless. And yes, it would be happening under Trump. In spring of 2020 gas prices started rising and they were shooting straight up before Biden took office. Trump. couldn't stop it while he was in office, and it would therefore obviously have continued. Or else...why didn't he stop the climb? He had eight months. Supply issues...same. Issues in the wake of the pandemic are happening globally, and you have to try really hard to not see that.

I don't know what natives use, but I've read that Bigfoots (Bigfeet?) use sheep.
