I believe it's a matter of logistics and cost. It’s not an everywhere thing. Scarcity will show up first in countries unable to source their usual supplies and/or be able to pay the higher costs. Just like here, people are pulling up to the gas pump more often and putting less fuel in their tanks, not opting for an expenisve fill-up.
The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, peace-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life.
