Sad part is that we are doing all of this to ourselves, because the Administration knows what we will do. Everything done (by a chain of Administrations) has predicted an amount of inflation and revenue they can generate. Reflect on all the things we have gotten used to buying that has suffered significant inflation lately. Since our government lacks capacity to improve anything, they simply make exsiting national product cost more. Terrorism works.
If everyone could get together and quit buying into the whole "shortage" thing, supply would return to normal. People need to quit buying the extra box...they don't need. Or, panic buying double cost ammo (only encouraging success of the scalpers).
Yeah, stupid concepts.
Anyway, should the current situation with Russia continue, it is likely russian ammo will dry up....better stock up.
