Me too. I need to buy soem spare tires too. Spare tires may become hard to find in the future due to costs to ship them in, as will many other types of product.
Maybe its time to plant a garden - might need it to feed myself if transportation costs get too crazy.
What is the root cause of all this? A switch from a help your neighbor type mentality to a help myself type mentality. The end result is greed. 50 years ago, you wouldn't have had these problems. Why? Because their was honor and respect. Now you are starting to see the future and how it will unfold. When everyone is out for ones self with no care of what the consequences are, you will hype, swindle, scare, create FUD, or do anything to get your value of your money to rise.
Now ask yourself what has happened in the last 50 years to cause this? The answer is simple, since you aren't talking about a few robber barons this time around - it is wide spread and you are talking 1000's if not millions of people with this mentality today.
It is only going to get worse, since if your country is not based on honor and respect of your neighbor, there is only one final result or outcome for your country.
