In all seriousness K, yes there are alarmist videos and things on the web, ignore don't panic but well quite frankly I don't understand the hublu you can find rising prices in your grocery store, on coupon boards, in Bloomberg, the Wall Street Journal everyone has their definition of what is alarming.
If you are someone always in debt ( not referencing anyone here in general ) then reading the Wall Street Journal will be alarming. Just saying. So...with that said read my above post again and find the information that will make a difference in your family, help you make good wise decisions.
I could look at a crime report as alarming but you will bet your sweet dollar if I am looking for a house in a certain area and someone points a report out I will read the alarming report and make my own decisions.
So don't panic, if this alarming video makes anyone panic, well go read elsewhere see commodities rising, don't panic and Chose....Chose to ignore, chose to buy a few at a good price and stock up, chose to get coupons, chose to see what works for your family. Being all adults I really see no one scared or panicked here at someones video or group . That is just me. I have plenty of friends that have a pantry like I . Do they hoard? NO! I have plenty of couponing friends that stock up! Do they hoard? No! Many work for the gov. by the way and know the "hoarding" laws and don't consider their stash hoarding. On the other hand I have many that ignore and cry the blues later, love them just the same.
I don't mega coupon, and if I got good deals I would always donate to food pantries as I always did. I cook from scratch and buy necessities to do that, do I buy too much no . I spend so much less then the average family and my family eats well, in order to do that I have to garden, can and have some flour hanging around. To each his own. If in doubt about rising prices see Mc Donalds quote this week, see the coupon boards. Are people panicked? no just life. Deal with it or don't all in the choice. I love learning ,sharing and also see anyone who takes food away from anyone in a rationing situation as hoarding and mean... But we are not in that situation and well quite frankly never want to see that in my life time.
So to each his own , choices be made, don't panic, be happy and fiscally sound .*Angel*
