The supply chain thing sure seems like a way for retail business to get people buying Christmas gifts early. Not unlike when the meat industry told us how we wouldn't be able to get meat if they didn't pass a bunch of beneficial laws for them.

I think the economy has always been on shaky footing. Companies refused to look past tomorrow and when Covid hit, we saw how ill-prepared most were. So it's not a surprise to see any minor issues turning into major ones. Companies invested in stock buybacks, not contingency plans.
