Well, that was a pretty good video, but it lead me to watch TP fights, so I blame you for that :P
I've always been of the opinion that food shouldn't be returnable. If you don't like the quality of a gallon of milk, don't buy it there anymore. You don't get to return perishables; that would be my store policy.
If the government wanted to do something to harm selfish hoarders, they should eliminate so-called "price gouging" laws. Price gouging is fictitious, because the market constantly adjusts price based on supply and demand. We don't call normal prices gouging even though the exact same principles are in play. By allowing the price to float up, those that value TP most will pay the premium, and there will be product availability. Expensive but available TP is better than no TP at any price. It also sends a signal to production to maximize output since margins are temporarily lucrative.
