MREs aren't so bad....Without clicking I assume these clips were from Black Friday.
Going on that assumption, this is a limited time pre-scheduled event.
Sensible humans should already be preparing ahead for real events.
In the case of a real emergency half the population will be waiting for the government to help them.
Most people really are not in a position to prepare for the breakdown of civilization.
Oh most of us can prepare for a few weeks or months of hard times, if we're lucky, but to prepare for a world where nothing is working for an extended period of time?
Very few people are in a position to prepare for that event.
If we're VERY LUCKY, when/if we have that sort of monumental economic meltdown, (one where money is worthless, and nothing is working) there will still be enough authority left for the central or local governments to declare martial law.
Sounds horrid doesn't it?
Well even martial law is not nearly so horrid as anarchy.
