[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. But why is "can't go without" the standard not to be called a hoarder? It's not panicking to get an amount of milk or food that you'd normally get or that plus some extras because kids aren't buying school lunch and parents aren't grabbing lunch out by work. You need more food by nature of being home all day.

It multiplies to empty shelves when many people do it on a compressed timeline (as recommended by experts) before the stores can restock. Plus it's highly likely many will lose power so the mix of food is different if you can't cook or open the refrigerator. [b]I'm so tired of people calling reasonable behavior panic and hoarding just so they can feel superior.[/b][/quote]

A parent "needing" 7 gallons of milk per-week for an [i]adult son[/i] is unreasonable under normal conditions. During the scarcity conditions you mention - empty shelf compressed timeline - this is absurd. I think under scarcity conditions it would qualify as absurd if this adult was fulfilling his own gallon-a-day milk quota.

But I don't think this is harming anyone, unless people need milk per guidance from a pediatrician/doctor, and there are scarcity conditions.
