over leveraged version of it right now it really begs the question over if it's classical kind of adam smith and david ricardo joseph schumpeter capitalism as taught in college and grad school or if it's more of an i and randy and servile of the fittest at any and all costs by any means necessary vulture market fundamentalism that is built on increasing amounts of financial leverage and speculation versus actual manufacturing productivity and this is stand ability of a middle class i don't think it's working in the same way that it had in decades past ok it's good alexander in indianapolis i mean i think that's the point here is that i had i'm actually for capitalism ok i don't want any misunderstanding but i'm i want to work for everyone or more people and it's working for now ok because we we see you know we hear you know depending on what side of the political aisle you are you know how well the economy is doing well it's doing really well for rich people and that is undeniable when it goes a little bit further down i think it's a lot more nuanced than the talking points that you hear on

we are going to talk now with congress and adam smith. chairman of the house armed services committee. good morning conquer -- morning, congressman. we lost the congressman. will try to get him back in just a moment. if we could possibly do that. usa today, frontpage, unemployment hits 17 million. the u.s. economy continues to shed jobs and there is little sign the payroll losses will he's anytime soon. they are writing that about 6.6 million americans filed unemployment for claims for the first time last week. the labor department said thursday, reflecting another surge in layoffs in an economy that has shut down in stomach churning ways. that is the story in usa today. here's the front page of the york times. it is terrifying, aliens more out of work. efforts by the u.s. to halt economic damage cannot keep up. they write that when the federal government began rushing trillions of dollars of assistance to americans, the hope was that some of the eight would allow businesses to keep workers on the payroll. and christian employees against

adam smith would have said you need equal access to data, transparency and a shared moral framework for markets to function properly. you do not have that in any of these things when dealing with a digital giant. it calls in a technical way into question this 1980s school of thought that it is consumer prices that matter. that is the school of thought that allowed walmart to get this big and destroy town squares. we get our cheap stuff, that is good for us i guess but there are a lot of negative externalities. you get less choice but in this world of 3, i put quotation marks around 3, you think it is free, you are paid but don't know how much, that model doesn't work anymore, you have to look at two things. you can look at the innovation ecosystem which is the way the europeans do it. they are like biological systems, looking at a petri dish or a pond, the plant and frogs and fishermen. how do we make sure the system is working for everyone? that is a very european way of doing things. that is why antitrust cases take years and decades. the outcomes are questionable. interestingly there

so, here we have a navy secretary -- and adam smith is trying to find out why he lost his way?a reasonable explanation of why that happened. >> harris: yeah, that's really interesting. always interesting to get the take of someone who has led so many, general, as you have. what should happen next with the captain of the ship, the commander who wrote the letter that leaked to the media trying to say there's a lot of covid-19 among the people on the ship? legitimately looking out for them, but what should happen to him now? the president is saying they are going to take a look. >> gen. keane: that's kind of interesting. the captain spoke, as i understand it, to the secretary of the navy days before he wrote the letter paid actually, the secretary of the navy, by the way, wanted to come out there and give him a hand on the ship. the captain waved him off. that's the last thing he needed, the secretary of the navy giving him a hand on the ship. he also gave him his cell phone number, by the way. that gives you a sense of how personally involved he was. the guy in charge of the navy

that's not the way adam smith would have envisioned the market working. adam smith would have said you need equal access data and a shared moral framework in order for markets to function properly. you do not have those in any of those things when you're dealing with digital giants. also called in a very technical way into question this 1980s robert bork school of thought that if just consumer prices that matter. that's the school of thought that allowed walmart to get this big and destroyed town squares. fair enough, we get our cheap stuff so that's good for us i guess there are a lot of negative externalities to. you get less choice but in this world of free and i put quotation marks around three because when you download these to do the searches you think it's free but you are paying, you just don't know how much you that model really doesn't work anymore so i think you have to look at two things. i think you can look at the innovation ecosystem which is the way that the europeans do it. they look at, and also look at markets like biological systems. y

particularly at adam smith's day makes no mention of the limitations of the ecosystem it's assumed that there's almost a virtually infinite amount of growth possible but in 2020 with the climate now shutting down in huge areas of the globe due to over capacity. or under capacity is the case by bay over exploitation we're seeing limitations to growth so the people who were in the wealth creation business now understand that there's more money to be made destroying while destroying the ecosystem destroying society destroying populations as margaret thatcher said during the reagan factor period there is no society right so she kind of set the stage for this idea that you could make as much if not more destroying society than building society and so what we have institutions like private equity which are the opposite of what was done during the . robber baron curry where those guys built she's universities and libraries and situations now we have people like black rock and other private equity groups that are known for their destruction basically what's prompted this conversation is the neg

the ge kitchen for the asker to live in and boulware school the actor who was ronald reagan in adam smith, john locke, little essays added by henry adler. in the manhattan institute, they hoped they would be read. this actor, reagan, wasn't exactly popular across ge either. younger executives didn't like having some western propagandist. they complained about reagan. they couldn't stop boulware and his actor, he sent reagan all around to hundreds of ge plants, mimeographed pages to explain the future of industry, industry might move west, and he wrote about the dangers of socialism and socializing medicine was a bad idea. the tba was a bad idea, power could in a fate faster what was freedom making own decisions, maybe hydropower wasn't the only power in the future of the united states. soon enough reagan, the actor, began to take boulware's argument seriously. he even bought his son ge stock. from 1960, a dark cloud over ge, boulware and boulware's propaganda bill. justice department was investigating the company. in 1961 the new attorney general whose name was robert kennedy, pulled toge

kitchen in moscow for the actors to live in and boulware school backer who was ronald reagan and adam smith, john locke with little essays added by henry hammer. he gave little books just like the manhattan institute does out and hope they would be read. this actor, reagan was knocked exactly popular across ge either. the younger executives didn't like having some kind of western propaganda and they complain about reagan but for the few remaining years boulware was there they couldn't stop him and his actor and boulware since reagan all over to hundreds of ge plants to explain all about the tva and the future of industry and the industry might move west and so on. the actor and he wrote speeches about the dangers of socialism and socializing medicine was a bad idea. that the tva was abad idea , power could innovate faster when it was free to make its own decisions, maybe hydropower wasn't the only kind of power in the united states and soon enough reagan the actor began to take boulware's arguments seriously. he even bought his son some ge stock. the year 1960 dark cloud over ge. boulware a

there is no proposal that has a republican senator on board and it is being promoted by adam smith. ou wanted to pick a democrat designed to get the white house and are agencies to resist any cooperation with the hill, it would be using adam schiff instead of someone who is more bipartisan with a reputation for reaching across the aisle. i don't see why this is necessary. this could interfere with the work of the people who are fighting the pandemic, the very people you are bringing forward as witnesses are the people in the white house at hhs and the cdc you want concentrating on the pandemic, not worrying about what they have to say in testimony on the hill. i don't see why oversight doesn't work, congress has the power of oversight, they are giving out hundreds of billions in money, they can find out how that money is spent and why using regular levers of government. i don't see why a national commission is necessary at this point. shannon: byron york says calling to investigate the coronavirus response there are going to be investigations but in his eagerness he might be jumping

. >> that is bleak but there is a story in the economist and philosopher adam smith had a young research assistant reading the newspaper one day, the bridge elite had suffered to reverse in a battle with the french somewhere. he said britain is ruined and professor smith said young man, there is a great deal of ruin in a country. >> more to come. >> to q and a, i have some great questions here. >> one of the names we talk about is donald trump. it is interesting on this podcast, political realignment sparked by the president of the united states how often we don't end of talking about it. this is one of the central questions i've seen, is trump still at the forefront of the realignment? or has he governed for the capri trump republican, prioritize tax cuts, call for immigration, high skilled workers is what they meant here. how do you think trump within the context of the new class war? >> from the beginning i thought trump had less to do with mussolini and hitler than arnold schwarzenegger and jess even tour a. trump and venter a tried to take over the reform party and when you get thes

war, its sentiment, and lexicon, subtle feeling, as adam smith put it, represented a departure from traditional themes. they were the development of this time in history. while rochambeau never declared himself a military philosopher, is understanding as an agent of military enlightenment is clear. he opened his memoirs with a declaration to devotion ruling the truth and only the truth. he wrote -- and this is my translation -- the truth must be the basis of history. i can only write what i saw or heard of. i preferred to be quiet rather than to risk violating this first principle, from which one must never stray. rochambeau had an attachment to the moral values of waging war humanely as a friend of humankind. it is for this reason, i believe, that he cherished his story of the quaker above all others and only recorded this conversation in his memoirs. it is important to recall that military officers were among the most prolific world travelers during this time during -- due to the wars of empire. france had dispatched missionaries and scientific teams, colonized lands on six of seven continent

. >> tucker: congressman adam smith represents washington and parts of seattle.happy to have them with us. i've reportedly hear democrats say the phrase chinese coronavirus is racist and i've heard that several thousand times. if i lived in seattle and heard someone use that phrase would i be encouraged to call 911 to report it? >> the most important thing we can do right now tucker is a deal with the virus comprehensively. what i'm concerned about is to get us back to work. right now we don't have the testing regime and i think we can do this as a country but the partisan back-and-forth is not going to get us there. >> tucker: right i agree. >> right now we are socially distancing. as you reported in florida they have now issued a stay at home order and they are doing the social distancing because of the threat of the virus. what i hope that you and other leaders at fox news and the trump administration focus on is marshaling the power of this country to get the testing regime that we need to get the production of ppe and all of that. >> tucker: i get it, i do t

war, its sentiment, and lexicon, subtle feeling, as adam smith put it, represented a departure from traditional themes. they were the development of this time in history. while rochembeau never declared himself a military philosopher, his self understanding as an agent of the military enlightenment is clear. he opened his memoirs with the declaration of his devotion to relaying the truth and only the truth. he wrote, and this is my translation from the french, the truth must be the basis of history. i can only write what i saw or learned of in a certain manner. one will find blanks in the tableau that i have made in which i had a part in the course of my life. i prefer to be quiet rather than to risk violating this first principle of truth and fidelity from which one must never stray. in addition to this commitment to truth, rochembeau had attachments to moral values, waging war humanely as a friend of humankind. it is for this reason, i believe that he cherished the story of his encounter with the quaker above all others and therefore only recorded the such conversation in his memoirs. it is i

one adam smith has more from the south bay. >> reporter:'s restaurant in san jose was only to go ordersthe owner can help them be more guarded after thieves broke in using a crowbar sometime sunday morning, three weeks into the. this video captured its patio. >> i feel very violated. family has half a dozen of these restaurants in the area and we are all down 75 to 80%. >> reporter: holder says the suspect stole several tablets, including one used for door dash. they also stole money from the cash register and the manager's wallet. he is not the only one targeted. >> i have friends, one of them is armadillo willies. they broke into his place on saturday. the place on my left, west coast pizza company, they were broken into a month ago. >> reporter: holder estimates the vandalism set him back at least $5000. a similar story, but worse. >> anywhere between eight to $10,000 total between what they took and with a damaged. >> reporter: loft bar and bistro is closed down. last thursday night to people kicked in the door to his back patio, broken locks, and still mostly alcohol from his bar a

that is in the way adam smith would have envisioned.you need equal access to data, transparency and the moral framework to function properly. you do not have that in any of these things and you are dealing with the digital giants. it also calls in a very technical waiting to question this 19 '80s school of thought that it's just consumer prices that matter. but the school of thought that allowed wal-mart to get this big and destroy the town square. okay. fair enough. that's good enough for us i guess. there are a lot of negative externalities. you get with choice. but in this world of free come and i put quotation marks around it because when you download these and do these searches, you think that it's free but you just don't know how much. that model really doesn't work anymore. you can look at the innovation ecosystem, which is the way the europeans do it. they look at almost the markets like biological systems like a petri dish and there's all these different things. the plans and the frogs and fishermen. how do we make sure that it

you know i have on my show all the time this fiscal conservative, the old adam smith orthodoxy. come to sell you see a lot of cheap price, then take it. so what if you lose millions of jobs come at the bottom line is corporate america will be better. this is the great awakening. our medicines come from china. our masts that we need come from china and we talked about playing games with them. it's not just the united states, australia is rethinking this and they have a very conservative government. they have a libertarian running that government and they say, i just can't go with the old adam smith playbook. there is more to being a secure country, financially stable country than just going to the lowest price producer out there. particularly when it puts out a business and keeps companies in jeopardy. europe is rethinking this and boris johnson's own party is saying, we need to rethink while way. >> ed: the examiner adds to what you just said sing the governor can entice u.s. companies to return to our shores with tax breaks and other economic incentives while favoring american

point people began to realize this was a situation and we will not live in an agrarian free-market, adam smithorld anymore but we are living in a different kind of world hence the progressive movement began with california, johnson and in the midwest, lawful yet and that guy, teddy teddy roosevelt back east. yes, that gave holt new reform movement in america in the late 1900s. >> so we had the civil war and the building of the railroads and the golden age in the great robbers and then the reform movement. >> yes, sir. >> and then stanford universitye just quickly we have couple of minutes left on this but what is stanford university's relationship with leland stanford, the man? >> he's an icon.he he's a larger than life person who, i feel like his identity is humanity has been completely lee bleach and i don't know of anyone here who locked-in this evening had a sense of leland stanford the man and i've spent almost five years on this man and i still find him enigmatic to some large extent. ih deal with that in the book bt stanford to the university is this great man and if you look at these r

that is from adam smith yesterday. jeremy in maryland, you are next.ler: how is it going, great listening to c-span. i listen to you guys daily on my route into work. i work here in virginia. host: what kind of work do you do, jeremy. at a laundryked facility, right now we are just down to a few people. we went from three and $50,000 to $5,000 in revenue weekly. i understand everybody is scared. we all know how to wash our hands, we know how to clean up to our elbows. we know how to distance ourselves from each other. we have been doing in our whole lives. that is what primary school is for. we learn how to not get each other six. this country runs on capital and if we don't have any money we are not going to have a country anymore. we can't just keep saying let's borrow some more money. we are already $20 trillion in debt. i have three children that are going to grow up paying for this. thele get sick every day, flu has been around for forever and there is preventative maintenance for that. i'm going to be honest, i am a narcissist. i live with a wife

. >> i've read various economists, adam smith, david ricardo, and all that.i've really never heard of more eloquent statements that distinctly sums up the economic world than george bush made in december think of 2008 when he said in the memorable words, if money doesn't listen up, the sucker will go down. [laughter]. so jealous, it was like the gettysburg address trooper to the point. [laughter]. is the book, really have no appreciation for the fact that he understood what was going on and understood what needed to be done. it was overtime the wood through those proposals. warren: phil. he was not well he was always surprised when i was surprised. and i surprised more than once. [laughter]. was a great surprise. i would say that who spoke to him, wanted anything similar from our previous career, as a matter what you negotiate, that all things and understandings about the relationships we have, if i didn't have the right relationships, it will be my fault. and so i met him a year before the crisis to get to know the president and to work with him. and remembe

we followers of adam smith are egalitarian. is there a dot in there somewhere?est: nancy was a professor at the university of massachusetts and should get the nobel prize. she was annoyed that i called her a marxist because she isn't an orthodox marxist. she is of the left and i was, once i was joined by a sociali socialist. i dreamt i saw joe last night. but i as i said i am a christian liberal which means that i acknowledge the responsibility that they have towards the poor. we can't just take a country club view and i've got my cadillac as well in the world so on a lot of the policy proposals nancy makes on the left, i agr agree. i may not quite agree with the scale she wants to do them on but we agree that we should help poor people and pregnant women and so forth there shouldn't be a fist in people status of an open hand held. that is consistent with what we call capitalists. one thing the sheer act of buying a cup of coffee as mutual advantages and both people are happy about it, the seller and the buyer, but furthermore, you will notice in your own life b

encourage men and women combined paid work with family and community work and we follow full version of adam smithre egalitarian. is there but in their printed. deidre: nancy and is an old friend. she a professor of the university of massachusetts. and she should get them nobel prize but she won't. she was annoyed that a connor a narcissist because she's not unorthodox markets. i was once, bias socialist. as i said, i'm a christian liberal which means that i have knowledge responsibility that we have towards the poor. i cannot just take it kind of country club, humans are losers. so a lot of the policy proposals that nancy makes in the left, i agree i may not quite agree with that skill she wants to do them on but we agree we should health for people and pregnant women and so forth. that there should be manifested in people's face but an open end. help. that is perfectly consistent with what we unfortunately go capitalist. but when you think about it, the ordinary transaction, we buy a cup of coffee, and for one thing it is the sheer act of buying a couple coffee is mutually advantageous. both peo

we followers of adam smith are egalitarian. is there a but in there somewhere?uest: nancy is an old friend, a professor at the university of massachusetts and should get the nobel prize, but won't. she was annoyed i called her a marxist because she is non-orthodox marxist but she is of the left and i am not. i was once kind of a joan baez social theme songs and i dreamt i saw joe hill last night, but as i said i'm a christian liberal, which means i'd knowledge a responsibility that we have towards the poor that we can't just take a kind of country club view, those are losers, this again would be donald trump, those losers i don't care about them. i have my cadillac, all is well in the world, so on a lot of the policy proposals that nancy makes on the left eye great. i may not quite agree with the scale she wants to do them on, but we agree we should help poor people and pregnant women and so forth. that there should be not a fist and people space, but an open hand of help and that's purposely-- perfectly consistent with what we call capitalism. when you think ab

. >>> joining me now, congressman adam smith of washington state, chairman of the house armed services committee. and congressman eric swalwell of california who served on the house intelligence committee. gentlemen, your two states were sort of the leading edge on some of the tip of the spear for what we're seeing rolling out across the entire country. and senator -- representative smith, congressman smith, i'll start with you, how are things going in terms of washington state and bending that curve of new cases and deaths? >> they're going better in our state. the statistics have shown. there is still a lot we do not know. the we don't have the type of testing we need across the country. listening to what you were talking about with senator smith, the most important message i want to deliver to the country is we need to massively ramp up production of crucial equipment. 3m is focused on personal protection equipment, like masks. we really need to increase that production, but the next wave is te testing. we still don't have anywhere -- to say we don't have anywhere near the testing w

none were more adamant than joseph smith's own brother hiram smith. when rumors start seeping out in 1841 they have a moral crusade as rampant sexual improprieties in the city. they know as the high council. and as high council is operating at that same time that joseph smith is doing his polygamist activity. they try to shore up morals. heading towards a crisis. when hiram finally confirms that. it was the principal they now embrace. in fact shortly after he takes it. sorry to break it to you guys. they either head wives or daughters who have been secretly sealed. a number of men in that meeting when they break the news to them that core group of men becomes the core of a new resistance movement within nauvoo. they eventually create their own church. in their own dissenting newspaper. it's when those walls are crumbling around them. in march of 1844. it's another one i wish i have more time to delve into. the walls collapsing and a need for more radical intervention. and that's when they created the council as well. we get these two trajectories lead

. >> i don't see hyak or adam smith. >> i've got hyak i'll get that for you.t you buy me a hyak book? >> i try i try. i try. >> reporter: listen. hyak is out there. he's one of the greats, joe. let me answer your question, which is i think improving credit markets has been a part of this whole sort of turn around we've had recently. put it this way, you've been using that term necessary but insufficient you're not going to have a stock market rally that's going to sustain itself without getting credit markets together. there's still a lot of work for the fed to do. the commercial paper facility still needs to get up and running. still plenty of issues to be resolved there has been some effect and this lays a basis for the market and stock market to have at least some form and solid funds in many respects that are linked to what's going on in the fed. >> great, steve. thanks for more on keeping the american worker and small business -- businesses afloat during the crisis, let's bring in labor secretary eugene scalia. mr. secretary, it's good to see you this mor

none saw more adamant than joseph smith's brother. when the rumors of polygamy start seeping out in 1841, he leads a crusade to him about what he saw rampant improprieties in the cities known as the high council and the high council was operating at the same time joseph smith is doing his polygamist activities so you get these two brothers, joseph smith and the expert hands trying to shore up the traditional morals heading towards a crisis. when he finally converts to polygamy in may 1843 in an instantaneous and in some ways confusing although i could talk about some reasons why i think he did so, when he converts to polygamy, he already created a machine to eradicate the principle that he now races. shortly after he converts, he takes the doctrine of polygamy to the high council of the vehicle he has been using and says sorry to break it to you guys, but this is news that the left. by the way, three of the men serving on the high council had either wives or daughters that had been into this might have been news to them. in that meeti

you know, if you go way back to adam smith or milton friedman, read about the basics of capitalism, it'sarket society where the government merely acts as an umpire, not a participant, to prevent one party from being coerced by another and what we have seen happen here, state after state, is the government became a participant when states started to shut down. we need to get the government back to playing umpire so that businesses can start opening. as you mentioned, there's great businesses that were doing just fine three months ago, now they are on life support. we need to reopen, we need to reopen quickly and safely just like you said. one of the things i heard mnuchin say is we may not be full speed until the end of august. that's a long time. i would like to get there quicker than that. stuart: what about the debt we are building up? leader mcconnell is worried about it. he says we can't just keep on piling up this debt. we've got to do something about it. i don't know what you are going to do about it because we are probably going to add at least $5 trillion to the $20 trillion odd

that are so imbedded in traditional conservative economic orthodoxy, the folks who always mention adam smith think we should let china do anything if they will do it cheaper than we will, despite the problems we have had from lost jobs to depressed america and now we are waiting for them to send us masks. how nuts is that? stuart: how nuts is that. that's a good outcue. wait a second. did you see goldman sachs this morning predicting an extraordinary rebound on the other side of this thing, when we get the economy starting to reopen? they are talking about a 19% jump in gdp in the third quarter and another 12% in the fourth quarter. that's an astonishing rebound. are you on board with that? charles: i am on board with that. listen, the market is informing us what it wants to do, what it thinks the economy can do. we had a classic 50% plus retracement from the lows. think about this. the s&p rallied 30% from march 23rd until yesterday's high. the market is suggesting that we can handle this, we can come back online in a reasonable time and don't let this become a great depression. we have the

only in america was adam smith and capitalism unleashed so that we have iphones that have more computingound to moon, where the internet and refrigerators and cars and air conditioning and all the things that are of american invention and innovation have improved and uplifted the lives of billions of people. only through the unleashing of the fact that people say you liberate me by giving me a chance to achieve the american dream through a job and some day i want a better job and i want a higher wage and i want to do better for my family. that is only an american dream and it is what has made us so special. you talk about it every day on the program. if comrade cortez is so dissatisfied, there are plenty of workers paradises around the globe. it could be china, russia, check out venezuela. the workers there can unite all day long and there's no jobs for them so they can protest all day. this is lunacy that is completely antithetical to american capitalism and prosperity except it is precisely what is being taught in our schools right now. it's what i write about in the book. it's what we

[smith] you've been adamant from the very beginning, the accusations that were made in the mitchell report and the individuals who made those accusations, your statement from the very beginning was, "i didn't do it." [clemens] yeah, but there was only one individual and we gave them everything that they wanted. and we went through it. it was pretty trying, not only, like i said if i didn't have my boys and family and sisters and brothers they were really upset about it all. and, but we handled it the proper way and like i tell people if it happens, if they want to vote it doesn't really matter to me either way, like i said. it's not something that i played for. the guys that look at the facts and do it all is great. but you have zero control over it, like i said. i think that for me the hall of fame when somebody says, "hey he's a hall of famer," it's kind of a selfish thing. there would be so many people i need to thank including the all the catchers i talked about earlier, players that i played with, n, there's just, it's like i said, not only your family and people that helped you get t

none were more adamant on that position then joseph smith's brother hiram smith. when rumors of polygamy start seeping out in 1841 hiram smith lead the world crusade to root out what he saw as rampant sexual impropriety and to do so he marshals the most powerful ecclesiastical body known as the high council. this high council is operating at the same time joseph smith is doing his polygamist activities which you get these brothers, joseph smith and his polygamist experiment, hiram smith trying to shore up traditional morals heading toward a crisis. one hiram finally converts to polygamy in may of 1843 in an instantaneous and confusing though i can talk about why i think he did so when he converts to polygamy he created a machine to eradicate the principle he now embraced. shortly after he converts to polygamy he take the doctrine to the high council, the vehicle he had been using to eradicate polygamy, sorry to break it to you guys, three of the men serving on the high council had either wives or daughters secretly sealed to joseph smith in plural marriage and thi

jenny smith and mark adams, thank you both for your time.est we spent over half a million pounds more at supermarkets this april than the same time last year. and now tesco has fulfilled 1 million online orders for the first time ever, after a huge surge in demand. our business correspondent emma simpson has been speaking exclusively to the boss dave lewis about the challenges he's facing. we follow a dedicated sequence of one way. every business is having to adapt and tesco has been in the thick of it. it has been quite incredible. just about everything in our business has changed. we had nearly 50,000 colleagues who were either self—isolating or in the vulnerable group, for 12 weeks, so we had recruit nearly 50,000 new colleagues, train them at a time when the business was changing massively. how did you feel in march when the supermarket shelves were stripped bare, day after day? it's never a good time in retail when you can't give customers what they want and to see just the amount of demand. certain categories, as i say, there would be
