[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1736006, member: 498"] None of us have seen how this would play out in reality. Huge difference between a hurricane coming on shore that has been all over the news for 2 weeks and the economy collapsing with no food in the stores. In the case of a hurricane they are fleeing away from it. Pretty much one direction to go to get away from the hurricane. Which way do you go searching for food when you can go any direction on the compass? Yes you can go a ways on a full tank of gas. But before you light out to points unknown how much of that gas will be spent driving here and there searching for food. Remember there is no reason to flee like there is in a hurricane. You just have to find food. How many would jump on the freeway and drive 300+ miles to a county which only has 2 grocery stores? And an area where it is easily 30 or 40 miles between gas stations. I am sure that some would end up here but not the masses. [/QUOTE]
