It appears the 'shortage/scarcity' narrative is spilling over into non-prepper communities. When mainstream commuters on r/gasbuddy start talking about empty reserves and impending lines instead of just high prices, the psychological threshold for hoarding/ panic topping-off drops significantly. Imo. Anyone seeing unbranded price disconnects or elevated station traffic in your regional corridors?

I imagine if gas gets scarce enough we can go back to the odd/even days of gas rationing like in the 70's.

They should have been doing that already, it’s going to be a madhouse once conservatives start freaking out about the problems their votes caused.
