Sorry, but where do you see breadlines?

  I live in California. If you want food, there is a 2 hour wait at the market. You will then be permitted to buy one carton of milk, one 2-pound package of chicken or beef, one loaf of bread, and two canned products -- all from an incredibly limited selection, as that's all the food there is to be had. I spent the entire day yesterday acquiring food by visiting every store in town and waiting in every line. I managed to get enough food to feed us for three days, buying the limit of everything that I was allowed (most markets were so stripped that I could only actually buy one or two items total, because that's all there was). Only one market still had meat of any kind -- I got about a pound of untrimmed tri-tip. None had eggs or milk, but I got a half pound of butter. I did get a loaf of bread, though.

    That doesn't remotely resemble either what anyone else is saying or what I've personally observed. Not sure what's going on with these comments (and you've been doing it for a while: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22551409 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22551409). Please stop.
