Panic And Desperation Sweep Across America As Fears Of A “Dark Winter” Continue To Rise
Do you remember earlier this year when consumers were feverishly hoarding toilet paper and we were seeing colossal lines at food banks all over the nation during the initial stages of the COVID pandemic? Well, it is happening again. Now that the vote on November 3rd is behind us, the pandemic has once again become the primary focus of the mainstream media, and a lot of people are completely freaking out. Just like earlier this year, store shelves across the country are being emptied because Americans don’t want to be stuck at home without enough toilet paper and hand sanitizer. Each new restriction that gets announced adds to the frenzy, and it has gotten to the point where new restrictions are literally being announced around the nation on a daily basis now. And if the case numbers that we are being given continue to rise, it is inevitable that this new wave of lockdowns will get even tighter.
Over the last several months, Joe Biden has repeatedly told us that we have a “dark winter” ahead. Here is just one example…
“There is a need for bold action to fight this pandemic,” Biden said in Delaware. “We’re still facing a very dark winter.”
Biden, whose campaign against President Donald Trump made the coronavirus a main focus, pledged to “spare no effort to turn this pandemic around once we’re sworn in on Jan. 20.”
Technically, winter doesn’t start until a little over a month from now, but the panic shopping has already begun.
In California, supplies of toilet paper are being voraciously gobbled up by fearful consumers…
Shoppers in Temecula had already emptied the paper and cleaning aisle in a local Walmart by Wednesday morning. Other storefronts, such as Trader Joes in the Silverlake neighborhood of Los Angeles and Ralphs on West 9th Street, were simply running low on such supplies.
A worker at a Costco in Los Angeles, who wished to remain anonymous, said the store was selling out of toilet paper every day, among other supplies, but also said that this could be attributed to the Thanksgiving holiday coming up next week.
Similar panic buying appears to be happening over in Spokane, Washington…
