The toilet paper thing was so stupid. There was plenty available, but they didn’t want to sell it in stores because it was made for commercial use. At the same time they didn’t want to increase production for household supply since that would cost money and they wanted to use the shortage as an excuse to raise prices.
We had that here too. For a week. Then it all sorted itself out. Mostly because people got their panic buying out of their system and everything returned to normal.
The problem wasn’t panic buying, at least not after the first rush. It was that demand for home use went up past the ability to supply during lockdown. Shifting part of the commercial supply to the grocery stores would have solved it immediately.
Sort of crazy to look at the birth rates in, like, the DRC or Afghanistan and conclude they must have done everything right.
America can have birth rates on par with Pakistan and Somalia if they just obliterate access to birth control and end all public education. Concentrate large numbers of American teenagers into ghettos and refuge camps where there’s nothing better to do than fuck. Guaranteed you’ll get another baby boom inside ten months.
Everything I’ve heard about these camps suggest ICE agents are free to sexually assault the detainees.
Gotta wonder what it says if the women in these camps suddenly have a higher pregnancy rate than their unincarcerated neighbors. I guess people are just really optimistic about the future in there?
Most of these points only apply to the US
Don’t you know USA is one of the 4 country in the world? The other 3 is China, Russia, and Europe.
You forgot Africa and all the Mexican countries.
Everyone forgets Africa.
It’s the biggest country in the world after all!
Why worry about Papua new guinea or wherever you are from@
I dunno. Housing is pretty bad in Denmark, and things are generally becoming less affordable.
Sure, but we still have toilet paper and no mass shootings.

The no mass shootings part certainly is a plus.
Yeah, the US! That’s the big ball in the picture!

They’re way ahead of you on that. Education has become laughable and they have ICE concen… detention centers now.
