Unlike the previous toilet paper panic, there is no rational basis for the latest rush to stock up. Ignorance is the cause this time.
The dockworkers' strike will have very little, if any, effect on toilet paper availability. This is because toilet paper products are domestic and are shipped by truck.
If there is a toilet paper shortage, it will have been caused by panic buying. The less people know about where toilet paper is manufactured, the more toilet paper they will buy.
The reaction during the Covid pandemic was rational, as toilet paper is deemed a necessity. The latest panic is simply ignorance.
