There isn't even a shortage.  That's what is so sick about it.  In many
states it's illegal to raise prices more than 10% during emergencies and I
heard they considered prosecuting.  I think they should, trying to gouge
people in a time like this is despicable.

Fortunately around here it didn't happen.
