Amazon has wise emergency foods sold out, along with most paper products. E-bay has scalpers price gouging on TP and other paper products. I saw ONE roll of TP priced at $14.95....but FREE shipping. E-Bay ought to police their sellers and suspend those sellers that do that in what Trump has declared a National emergency.

Is it bad that the price gouging doesn't actually bother me?

I mean, the only way to control it is with government force, and we know government doesn't relinquish power easily.

If you are dumb enough to pay those prices, maybe you deserve it......
