People are assuming here these are suburbanites. They very well could be farmers that rely on their tractors for their livelihood. If you get out of your bougie suburbs and go out towards Leesburg, there are plenty of farms. Or to put it in terms you city-folk understand, wineries.
Lol. You don’t know that farming vehicles have special gas, do you? Such a good farm boy would know that the diesel that farmers use on the farm is dyed red because it’s taxed differently, and certainly not purchased at your run of the mill gas station. It’s usually delivered to the farm. https://www.quora.com/Do-farms-have-their-own-fuel-pumps-Ive-never-seen-a-tractor-at-the-local-Exxon-If-so-what-kind-of-fuel-is-it-how-much-does-the-tank-hold-and-how-is-it-delivered
Not every farm is hundreds or thousands of acres with personal gas facilities, and most "gentleman" farms do not have the super heavy equipment. This guy may run his own lawn service or a multiple other types of businesses where he needs the gas.
Correct.
His customers are going to have a hard time paying if they can't buy gas to get to work. Maybe he should have saved some for them?
Remote work has decreased the need for suburbanites to need gas and most work remotely due to Covid. Small farms provide you Richies with the local organic produce you desperately want.

Yes, and that is why people who don't shouldn't have rushed to the gas station to buy gas.
You can make your decisions about not having gas if you lived in a place where the gas supply is offline and everyone drives everywhere. People on the east coast drive.
If everyone that drives tries to fill up on the same day there will be a shortage. That's a fact.

If they are getting diesel for their tractor, as they always do, why don't they have safe containers?

How do you know those aren’t safe? Someone on DCUM said so?
The same way you know this guy owns a farm and is just getting gas for his tractor.

So fuel supplies are not the issue?
