So again, HOW IS IT BS?

Ultimately my point was people need to lighten the fuk up about hand sanitizer and realize hand washing (and NOT touching your face!) is still the best prevention.

If Corona is vulnerable to alcohol then fantastic. People just need to stop acting like owning 300 gallons of Purell is the only thing standing between them and certain death/turning into a zombie (is this the apocalypse yet?)
good stuff. I would 100% take soap and water over purell, but a lot of people are on the go and I'd much rather they have a bottle or two handy to use in between washroom trips.

I agree that the hysteria over hand sanitizer is too much, but everyone should have been able to grab a bottle or two as an extra measure. I have two bottles right now that I use infrequently since I have access to a washroom at my office. But when I'm on the go, I never leave without my beautiful little bottle of purell.

The question is answered clearly. If what I said was BS, then that implies you hold that at least one of them doing it is OK.

It was a sarcastic statement. I am saying that it should not be okay for either to do it. You're saying my statement is BS. I'd like to know why. What is BS about what I said? The negation of what I said would be that it is okay for one to do it but not the other or for both to do it.
Looks like you are wrong when you said that its ok for someone to gain a large profit if they can. And all efforts must please the shareholders. lmao.

I don't say that. I am saying the opposite. I am saying it is wrong for either firms or individuals to do this. That is why regulations exist.

Let's try this for the seventh time:
My original post had nothing to do with you. I was making a point that both individuals and firms should be regulated, but for w/e reason, many people find it okay to regulate individuals but ignore it when firms do the exact same thing.

You jumped in, said what I said was BS with zero justification why and basically said I wasn't allowed to make the point. Well, I made the point anyway, and it is relevant.

so the police will charge you a thousand bucks to come down to help if a bunch of burglars breaks into your home is it alright
i mean nobody is forcing you to engage their services right, well i don't need the police right now so who cares if you need the police's help right now,
you got other options as well, you can wrestle the burglar or use your firearm, good alternatives as well.
well who cares if someone needs the hand sanitiser, surgical mask, those old and young and health care personnel, none of my business sir

They started cracking down after criticism from the public, but not before a huge amount was already sold and tremendous profit was made from sheep

Well, there was already a business that was 'supplying' to the 'demand' for a reasonable price at that.

This dude is just another unnecessary middle man that also makes the product harder to purchase.

can't use supply and demand here because supply would have met the demand [eventually] had the cuck not bought out entire stores to price gouge

Would love this to take place.

fleabay (site if full of scammers) should also follow suit as well as ALL major platforms.

I had a good lol when retailers said they weren’t accepting refunds from preppers who may actually be resellers masquerading as caring family people.

Guarantee there’s a handful of miscers doing this already. Since this board has a lot of scum bags. Also guarantee it will be your typical manlet of piss/10 who wants revenge on the world.
"The manlet is a savage beast that knows no moral bound. After falling in disgrace to a manmore, a ravaged manlet would not hesitate to come from behind and land a sucker punch/ swing with a rock to the back of a manmore's head. They are ruthless and you need to spend some more time in the gutter to even begin trying to comprehend what goes on in their minds."

Point stands. A company is a machine designed to extract maximum profit. If you don't regulate it, people will find ways to manipulate and distort markets to their favor.

Though, as of late, I'm increasingly in favor of social enforcement.

For some strange unexplainable reason everyone is perfectly fine when retail says that it's "1 flat TV/iPhone/turbodildo per 1 customer, take it or leave it" when it's Black Friday, but apparently ****s hoarding and reselling sanitizers/masks and any other equipment that could very well prevent spreading the infection during a state of emergency are somehow the poor victims when there is a crackdown.


It's also a great way to potentially get a visit from groups of agitated people with pitchforks and guns.

Price gouging during a crisis is scummy and illegal in most of the US. You can try and spin that however you like, but it doesn't work.

Thanks to hoarders they can't get them at all through regular vendors. If they find a channel it still cost 10x as much. Not saying stores should gouge to the point nobody can afford them, just not afford to gouge.

You always have to come into any thread with literally the most retarded take imaginable. The people in each area were being supplied fine by the local stores selling to them for $1. Now this guy cleans them out, and they have to go online to pay 20x the price for the same product, to be delivered days later. How does that benefit anybody other than the piece of **** doing the price gouging?

Hand sanitizers/disinfectants are pretty essential during a viral pandemic, especially to those who have to take public transit and/or cannot work from home.
It's far less effective than just washing your hands. If you take public transportation, hand sanitizer won't save you from the guy who coughs **** into the air. Just dont lick your fingers before washing them, it's not hard
