We didn't run out of food. The price of everything just went up. These prices aren't the normal prices either. They are prices in isolated areas that usually cost more anyway. The are places way up north that can only get things delivered by truck in the winter on the ice roads. In the summer they need everything flown in. Up there, you can expect to bay $45 for a pack of Gillette razors. But you are definitely right in saying people should be prepared for a food shortage. It can happen so fast.

Yeah, believe it or not socialism isn't as great as people say. Not that crony capitalism will end well either...
