I'm Italian. Fun fact: people never got the toilet paper fear; instead, they started raiding for pasta. No, it's not a stereotype. They took every single box they could from the shelves, except ONE KIND: Barilla's Penne Lisce. The brand became a living joke. Italians would rather starve, rather than be forced to buy them.

My parents are GSA employees, and it’s a little hard to lose your American government job unless if you smoke weed or commit a crime. My parents invited me to their apartment every weekend, and when I came on one weekend, they had just stacks of toilet paper. I asked if they were dumb, and they said that if they weren’t gonna take it, they probably wouldn’t have any, which turned out true the next weekend when I went to get some and instead had to buy handsoap and wipes instead.

So, that whole send the excess food to Africa is a thing that the EU does and it's incredibly damaging in the long run. If the EU countries have enough bumper crops to "donate" food (economists call it dumping) to African nations, chances are that at least the northern bits of Africa had a good year too. In comes the EU food for free, undercutting African farmers and often shutting them down since many African farmers unfortunately live crop to crop. This perpetuates a cycle where in the bad years Africa can't afford to feed itself because they didn't make enough profit from the good years to plant the next batch of crops. It's short-term charity made with the best intentions (probably) but it's ultimately unhealthy.
Do you understand that African countries do not have the logistics and funding to supply food to places in need? How is this so hard to understand? Building infrastucture and getting Africans to the level of education to use it is a real problem you know. You take for granted things like proper roads and airports in all places. It is a logistical nighmare to get suplies to the right place most of the time.
Different economic principle entirely. Applying macroeconomics to microeconomics doesn't always translate. You can't compare dumping to something like a universal minimum income or benefits. You see, dumping happens in "the good years." It fulfills the need of ridding an economy of excess where benefits address a completely different problem. It's not just something that happens to poor countries either. China crashed the EU solar panel and steel industries for example by flushing it with cheap materials. The powerful countries like the EU and the US get to protect our econonmy from that with tarriffs and import regulations but Africa can't prevent food dumping without stopping genuine charitable efforts. If the EU donated that amount of food in years of famine, it wouldn't harm the African economies the same way.
Yep, it's a good sentiment to try to help but in actuality it basically makes Africans even more dependent on western nations for aid which is bad for every country there in the long run, it's one of those roads to hell that's paved with good intentions.
Plus, the individual farmers do NOT have the financial capacity to ship tons of food. They already are losing money, so unless they receive money to ship the food, it's ludicrous to ask them to ship goods across the world. How is most of chat this oblivious to the blindingly obvious?

I always just bought one 8-pack at a time as always and we never ran out, because shipments were still coming in as always. It's just that people were hoarding the stuff.

WTF, people
I work at a wal mart in a small town in Canada and even here we ran out of toilet paper and sanitization. Some person came in the day we had a shipment and ordered everything we had including what was in the back. We loaded it onto a truck from all our pallets, this was before limits

25:50 Yeah the problem with making the farms over in say africa is that while it works for a while, eventually the locals kill workers and owners, take over the farm because they think it's their 'right' as natives. Then since they know nothing about running a farm or growing produce it all gets destroyed and then complain and beg to have farmers come over and run the farm again. Literally rinse and repeat, been that way for like 100+ years from the perspective of Australia (Daily aussie farmers in africa are slaughtered)
I recall reading about zimbabwe farmers slaughtered and the prime minister said to not prosecute the ones that killed them. Nobody in power did anything about it. But imagine giving food directly to them, they will think they earn it and not farm anything or do anything productive. Once it stops, what will happen?

I never understood the toilet paper stupidity. A guy that lived nearby actually had his house burn down because he had so much TP in his garage. apparently fire fighters told him the fire would have just done some damage to his garage except said garage was filled with TP and fueled the fire. My neighbor who is a volunteer firefighter said its the fastest hes ever seen a house burn down. I thought it was hilarious.
Love the fact that people who eat food, think world hunger can be "solved" its just way too funny. Let me know when they develop a "never hungry again" pill
I had so many people glare at me in supermarkets because i bought like 2 boxes of 48 rolls in bulk... not to mention i would always buy toilet paper in bulk even before because its just usually cheaper
Kristian Bro, 5G literally came from China. It's their tech over here. They've literally been caught planting students here to steal info, they're taking our data from proxy companies like Epic Games, and their embassies are being closed due to evidence of more spying. It's not a conspiracy theory to say we should care about the origins of what we introduce into our infrastructure.
Miki That would still be just another example of China exploiting greed to get ahead, in line with using cheap labor to gain a foothold in our economies. We'd be reliant on Chinese influence for more than just Apple products and, well, most commodities. The idea is that China is competitive, and recognize us as their most significant economic opposition, which should make it reasonable for people to view cooperation and integration as a little odd. The microwaves frying your brain thing is nothing new either, but isn't the meat of the argument against the future of 5G.
@@rthmn 5G cellular networks and 5GHz wifi are different things. Confusing for sure, because on your router it's likely labelled 5G. It's referring to something altogether different though.
I started off thinking the TP shortage was all just the media and panic, but there were actual reasons behind it. One I hadn't thought of until someone told me was how many people were working from home. There are completely different supply chains for the toilet paper you buy in the store and the industrial stuff they sell to businesses. So people were using a lot more of the toilet paper you normally buy in a store. After a few weeks you started seeing them repackage the industrial TP and market it to retail stores, but it was a while before you could actually find Charmin because people were just using more of it because they were home more, and Charmin isn't building a new factory when the shortage was probably temporary.
26:00 Topic on shipping food to Africa, the reason why we don't is that food deteriorates to fast. If you wanted to bulk ship it over, you would need a large ship which would need an extremely expensive and very large fridge to be installed just to slow down the deterioration of the food, never mind the travel time it takes to get there. And by the time it got there you would sell it to who or even if it's for charity who would manage it all? There's no infrastructure over there to manage such an operation and the excessive heat would make the food rot faster, so when the food is off the ships you have days to spread it around before it becomes inedible, if it's not rotted already. Alternative, flying it over. Same fridge problem and gets there far faster but now it's extremely expensive to do so in food tonnage/shipment. A fridge system on a plane would greatly reduce the already limited capacity even more as planes have to worry about weight more so than volume. Delving into the rest of the logistics would require a calculator and I'm to lazy to do so, glhf.
I don't think the shipping is problem at all. We are getting bananas and other shiet from there cheap. But yeah Africas infrastructure is pretty fucked so slower to move and spread stuff there. Also management is shiet and corruption is high. But even if we managed to overcome all of these there would be still major problem, money. Even if we sold that stuff non profit still the prices would be too high for African market. It would have to be charity.
Wasn't there some shit that went down in Africa a few years ago where they basically told the countries that were trying to help them set up infrastructure to fuck off and they can do it on their own?
@@muropappa1 There are many kinds of fruits that are naturally self regulating? don't age out quickly. But the things we produce the most in the US like meats, corn, wheat, other vegetables and fruits require care for them to make a journey like that. And they would likely be converted into a long lasting form like Jerky, flour, etc but that still requires some care as hot(pretty much everywhere along the equator) & damp(ocean travel if using ships) weather are the worst conditions for storing foods like that.

I used to work at a office supply store and we tried to have limits on school supplies during the "back to school" sales. like 5 kids that looked like each other would come through the line one after the other buying the same things, we weren't supposed to call out the parents so we just let it happen. People will find a way around any limitation. Lol

I as a teenager in my last year of high school at the time, like all of my class mates thought the toilet paper issue was funny. We looked for toilet paper in stores just to laugh at the empty shelves. I put a picture in Discord, everyone laughed. It was a baby boomer problem.

Essentially with the "hoarding" (really it's prepping/stockpiling) is that for years, decades even, the media has held the stance that anyone who even prep in the slightest is an alarmist and a weirdo. So pretty much everyone has barely enough stuff to last even the day, let alone the rest of the week, or month. Everyone should have a few extra packs of toilet paper, and a week or two of non perishable food and water. But you can't if everyone decides to buy their prepper stash on the same day.
I remember making fun of my parents for stocking up everything and buying 2 extra toilet paper packs, but these people even stealing are absolutely ridiculous What a disgrace
Man I stock up on toilet paper normally because I basically pick up a cheap pack every time I went to "the shitty non-food discount chain" in my country and when corona hit I had 150 rolls stocked already.
Often times people thought the toilet paper was out of stock when it was just more in the back because it was so bulky the shelves would empty quickly.
The ironic thing with the toilet paper, is that only 6 month prior, during the Australian Wildfires, people were donating so much toilet paper to victims of the fires that there were warehouses full of toilet paper & the "charities" collecting it told people to stop sending it. So during the "shortage", some where in Australia, there were warehouses full of the stuff
As a Filipino, I was laughing so hard and felt utterly disgusted about the Toilet Paper Fiasco. Filipinos use soap and water to clean our butts whenever we poop. I personally also use soap and water to clean my vagina when I pee because the thought of just wiping it alone disgusts me. I always bring a bottle of water and soap everywhere I go. Had I not been a prolific RUclips watcher, I never would have known that Western Countries use toilet paper for cleaning their parts. It just sounds so disgusting and I never thought that anyone would be satisfied with just toilet paper.🤣

I work at a wal mart in a small town in Canada and even here we ran out of toilet paper and sanitization. Some person came in the day we had a shipment and ordered everything we had including what was in the back. We loaded it onto a truck from all our pallets, this was before limits

Yeah the problem with making the farms over in say africa is that while it works for a while, eventually the locals kill workers and owners, take over the farm because they think it's their 'right' as natives.
Then since they know nothing about running a farm or growing produce it all gets destroyed and then complain and beg to have farmers come over and run the farm again.
Literally rinse and repeat, been that way for like 100+ years from the perspective of Australia (Daily aussie farmers in africa are slaughtered)
I recall reading about zimbabwe farmers slaughtered and the prime minister said to not prosecute the ones that killed them. Nobody in power did anything about it.
But imagine giving food directly to them, they will think they earn it and not farm anything or do anything productive. Once it stops, what will happen?

I never understood the toilet paper stupidity. A guy that lived nearby actually had his house burn down because he had so much TP in his garage. apparently fire fighters told him the fire would have just done some damage to his garage except said garage was filled with TP and fueled the fire. My neighbor who is a volunteer firefighter said its the fastest hes ever seen a house burn down. I thought it was hilarious.

I had so many people glare at me in supermarkets because i bought like 2 boxes of 48 rolls in bulk... not to mention i would always buy toilet paper in bulk even before because its just usually cheaper
There were 4G conspiracies back in the day too, now people would cry if they didn't get 4G on their phones. It's not like 5G is anything new.
Same thing probably happened with radio, 2g, 3g, etc.
Kristian
Bro, 5G literally came from China. It's their tech over here. They've literally been caught planting students here to steal info, they're taking our data from proxy companies like Epic Games, and their embassies are being closed due to evidence of more spying. It's not a conspiracy theory to say we should care about the origins of what we introduce into our infrastructure.
Miki
That would still be just another example of China exploiting greed to get ahead, in line with using cheap labor to gain a foothold in our economies. We'd be reliant on Chinese influence for more than just Apple products and, well, most commodities.
The idea is that China is competitive, and recognize us as their most significant economic opposition, which should make it reasonable for people to view cooperation and integration as a little odd. The microwaves frying your brain thing is nothing new either, but isn't the meat of the argument against the future of 5G.
@@rthmn 5G cellular networks and 5GHz wifi are different things. Confusing for sure, because on your router it's likely labelled 5G. It's referring to something altogether different though.
I started off thinking the TP shortage was all just the media and panic, but there were actual reasons behind it. One I hadn't thought of until someone told me was how many people were working from home. There are completely different supply chains for the toilet paper you buy in the store and the industrial stuff they sell to businesses. So people were using a lot more of the toilet paper you normally buy in a store. After a few weeks you started seeing them repackage the industrial TP and market it to retail stores, but it was a while before you could actually find Charmin because people were just using more of it because they were home more, and Charmin isn't building a new factory when the shortage was probably temporary.
26:00 Topic on shipping food to Africa, the reason why we don't is that food deteriorates to fast. If you wanted to bulk ship it over, you would need a large ship which would need an extremely expensive and very large fridge to be installed just to slow down the deterioration of the food, never mind the travel time it takes to get there. And by the time it got there you would sell it to who or even if it's for charity who would manage it all? There's no infrastructure over there to manage such an operation and the excessive heat would make the food rot faster, so when the food is off the ships you have days to spread it around before it becomes inedible, if it's not rotted already.
Alternative, flying it over. Same fridge problem and gets there far faster but now it's extremely expensive to do so in food tonnage/shipment. A fridge system on a plane would greatly reduce the already limited capacity even more as planes have to worry about weight more so than volume. Delving into the rest of the logistics would require a calculator and I'm to lazy to do so, glhf.
I don't think the shipping is problem at all. We are getting bananas and other shiet from there cheap. But yeah Africas infrastructure is pretty fucked so slower to move and spread stuff there. Also management is shiet and corruption is high. But even if we managed to overcome all of these there would be still major problem, money. Even if we sold that stuff non profit still the prices would be too high for African market. It would have to be charity.
You think shipping food is a problem? Building a "fridge" ? My god, there is a plethora of food which does not need any special needs for storing.
that and no sane company owner would invest in shipping that much cargo for fucking free on a already huge loss. people use your brains
Wasn't there some shit that went down in Africa a few years ago where they basically told the countries that were trying to help them set up infrastructure to fuck off and they can do it on their own?
@@muropappa1 There are many kinds of fruits that are naturally self regulating? don't age out quickly.
But the things we produce the most in the US like meats, corn, wheat, other vegetables and fruits require care for them to make a journey like that. And they would likely be converted into a long lasting form like Jerky, flour, etc but that still requires some care as hot(pretty much everywhere along the equator) & damp(ocean travel if using ships) weather are the worst conditions for storing foods like that.

I used to work at a office supply store and we tried to have limits on school supplies during the "back to school" sales. like 5 kids that looked like each other would come through the line one after the other buying the same things, we weren't supposed to call out the parents so we just let it happen. People will find a way around any limitation. Lol
The manager of that office supply store should probably be fired. The correct response to people buying a lot of the thing you sell with no expiration date is Thank You, and a bump in the stock ordering.

Except. When you didn't have toilet paper.
Bidet owners mustve been having a laugh during that.
One thing is for sure. In this period when everyone at home and I went out on the street, hiding from police, I never felt such fresh streets before. No pollution, clean air and birds on the roads and on trees. Best run ever.

Because chat is full of dumb libtards.
Essentially with the "hoarding" (really it's prepping/stockpiling) is that for years, decades even, the media has held the stance that anyone who even prep in the slightest is an alarmist and a weirdo. So pretty much everyone has barely enough stuff to last even the day, let alone the rest of the week, or month. Everyone should have a few extra packs of toilet paper, and a week or two of non perishable food and water. But you can't if everyone decides to buy their prepper stash on the same day.
I remember making fun of my parents for stocking up everything and buying 2 extra toilet paper packs, but these people even stealing are absolutely ridiculous
What a disgrace
Here in Hungary we never had toilet paper shortage but for some reason we had a shortage on mayo and milk products.
Everyone makes fun of ppl in mid evil periods for thinking the of the most insane things for a cure but the lock down proved we haven't changed 😂
bro i feel like australia has never recovered from the toilet paper crisis, whenever I go shopping like only 10% of toilet paper is ever in stock
Time to invest is a bidet. 👀
you laugh at hoarders, but that's what the world failed at not being prepared for corona virus
Man I stock up on toilet paper normally because I basically pick up a cheap pack every time I went to "the shitty non-food discount chain" in my country and when corona hit I had 150 rolls stocked already.
Often times people thought the toilet paper was out of stock when it was just more in the back because it was so bulky the shelves would empty quickly.
The ironic thing with the toilet paper, is that only 6 month prior, during the Australian Wildfires, people were donating so much toilet paper to victims of the fires that there were warehouses full of toilet paper & the "charities" collecting it told people to stop sending it.
So during the "shortage", some where in Australia, there were warehouses full of the stuff

As a Filipino, I was laughing so hard and felt utterly disgusted about the Toilet Paper Fiasco. Filipinos use soap and water to clean our butts whenever we poop. I personally also use soap and water to clean my vagina when I pee because the thought of just wiping it alone disgusts me. I always bring a bottle of water and soap everywhere I go. Had I not been a prolific RUclips watcher, I never would have known that Western Countries use toilet paper for cleaning their parts. It just sounds so disgusting and I never thought that anyone would be satisfied with just toilet paper.🤣
