Tell people not to rush to the stations to fill up and that's exactly what many of them are going to do.
Several states have declared a state of emergency over the gas issue now, with the recent pipeline shutting down impacting distribution further in the country.
The public is being warned not to panic and told not to rush to the station right now to try and fill up. But that is exactly what we are seeing.
Some industry experts are suggesting that people start thinking about what trips might be necessary to make now because of the market issues we're seeing. They are urging people to opt for other transportation methods right now because of the issue if it is possible.
No Supply Issues For Gas
It's alleged that this isn't a supply issue but one of distribution and that people shouldn't panic, that is only going to make things worse.
Some states that have looked to implement emergency measures over this issue include states like Georgia, Virginia, and North Carolina.
The pipeline has already restarted and it's expected that it might take several days to return to normal.
2020: toilet paper
2021: gas, guns, and ammo
2022: I'm putting my prediction on something like seeds and livestock at this point.
People can be very funny when there is a fear of not having control, same thing that drove the irrational TP and water #panic a year ago.
If you tell people not to do something, then they will most likely do that. This is called reverse psychology.
