That’s fine for small things. Now think larger. You need a kitchen appliance because the stove broke. It’s 4-6 months out. Big problem. - Will Hunting Nov 12, 15:54 2
- We went to an appliance store for a refrigerator, was told they were 3 to six months back ordered, we ended up with something we really didn't want -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 12, 18:07
- I get that. But I think my point does broaden to larger scale as well. America consumes, it's what we do. We can and should be doing more with less. -- nm - Qale Nov 12, 16:13

- One of the things driving inflation, at least. -- nm - znufrii Nov 12, 16:13
- I'd be more concerned about inflation if it was only the US experiencing it and it wasn't directly related to a pandemic. -- nm - Qale Nov 12, 16:10
