oh

2020-03-18 08:24:07 UTC  

what did they do?

2020-03-18 08:24:16 UTC  

Close early to restock shelves

2020-03-18 08:24:31 UTC  

But in doing so removes 2 nicely quiet hours where vulnerable people can go shopping

2020-03-18 08:25:02 UTC  

eh, in times like these it might make sense for them to do restocking when no one is in there

2020-03-18 08:25:18 UTC  

i imagine people would yeet pallets of shit that is in high demand

2020-03-18 08:26:25 UTC  

doesn't help me much

2020-03-18 08:36:42 UTC  

yeeeee, individuals when you're dealing with something like that are not the concern

2020-03-18 08:37:00 UTC  

from a business point of view, everyone is grouped as "the customer"

2020-03-18 08:37:13 UTC  

and if they keep doing whack shit, then they're gonna take actions

2020-03-18 08:41:37 UTC  

well now i get the choice of going in at an ungodly hour and it being fucking heaving, or go late and the shelves being empty

2020-03-18 09:16:32 UTC  

Price gouging is just a derogatory term to describe the regular workings of supply and demand, but with a moral label of reeee

2020-03-18 09:17:45 UTC  

Most people just can't accept the reality that if essentials become scarce, then prices must spike as a result so that things can return to normal. Don't demand lower prices, just reduce your consumption by becoming more efficient.

2020-03-18 09:18:50 UTC  

Preventing price gouging by law is a fasttrack towards starvation.

2020-03-18 09:21:05 UTC  

But people will never realize the hypocricy of their hyper-consumerism while at the same time spitting on profit-driven venture.

2020-03-18 09:21:15 UTC  

IT'S NOT SCARCE THO

2020-03-18 09:21:35 UTC  

It becomes scarce if demand doesn't lower to normal levels.

2020-03-18 09:22:37 UTC  

The reason why it's important to raise the prices of anything - essentials or not - if demand is too high is simply to force people into greater efficiency.

2020-03-18 09:22:38 UTC  

it is scarce if you can't get it

2020-03-18 09:23:41 UTC  

The only reason why essentials are cheap to begin with is because they're so valuable that maximum efficiency is neccessary so that everyone can survive on them.

2020-03-18 09:24:01 UTC  

That's why we need to start shooting each other dead

2020-03-18 09:24:23 UTC  

No need, just visit a local elderly home

2020-03-18 09:24:29 UTC  

coof all over

2020-03-18 09:24:36 UTC  

multikill

2020-03-18 09:25:21 UTC  

Start killing the commies, then the ETBrooD-like ultra-corporatists

2020-03-18 09:26:23 UTC  

You mean the people who keep the economy running and your socialist ass clean.

2020-03-18 09:27:10 UTC  

Oh look, the demanding woman is back in town screeching for gibs

2020-03-18 09:28:07 UTC  

The only gibs I want is fair tax money from corp-- oh, they've gone to the Bahamas, because they're anti-nation and need to be destroyed.

2020-03-18 09:28:41 UTC  

I'm not a socialist

2020-03-18 09:28:42 UTC  

Oh please, you want all them gibs that you can possibly ask for. You want the ethnats to clean your state from other ethnicities because you're too lazy to do it yourself.

2020-03-18 09:28:59 UTC  

I'm a woman, women aren't soldiers, you moron,

2020-03-18 09:29:06 UTC  

men are supposed to fight wars

2020-03-18 09:29:08 UTC  

I'm describing to you what happens when you allow retards to panic buy, and allow unco-ordinated shit to happen in a crisis

2020-03-18 09:29:15 UTC  

it's why you're stronger

2020-03-18 09:29:20 UTC  

People start going hungry and panicking, they start killing each other

2020-03-18 09:29:22 UTC  

You're hardly a proper woman. My mom is a proper woman. She worked all her life.

2020-03-18 09:29:27 UTC  

While raising children.

2020-03-18 09:29:42 UTC  

Imagine having to work instead of being a housewife

2020-03-18 09:29:52 UTC  

She didn't ask for gibs, she earned her belongings.

2020-03-18 09:29:54 UTC  

modernity bad

2020-03-18 09:30:07 UTC  

> Imagine having to work
The horror
