“Food Rationing Confronts Breadbasket of the World”
This was the headline I just read at the top of an article on the NY Sun’s website.
News people love these kind of fear mongering headlines.
Reading the story however I came across this paragraph;
“Internet postings attributed some of the shortage at the retail level to bakery owners who flocked to warehouse stores when the price of flour from commercial suppliers doubled.”
You can read the story here.
People who panic tend to make bad decisions.
