I hear this derogatory term "hoarder" being thrown around a lot. When the pandemic first hit I bought a ton of food. I still ate and bought the same amount over time.. Nothing went to waste. I just wanted to make FEWER but BIGGER trips to the supermarket so I had reduced chance of getting infected.
In the same sentence you complain about "hoarders" being faster than you whilst justifying (reasonably well imho) why you yourself bought more.
People did what they thought they needed to and will always do so. The world was always still a bit of a jungle out there (any nation is three meals away from anarchy). I'm sure those with immune compromised or elderly family members were more excessive on "hoarding". We need to get out of this blame mentality and realize our system needs improving so it can respond to these challenges.
