Because you're not in their minds at all. If you asked them they'd say that they're protecting their families, which is their primary function in life. They don't really connect with the idea that their being excessively provident is the same thing as somebody else going without.
Basic Daniel Kahneman behavioural economics, of course. There's a logic to it - it's just that it's bloody annoying when you're reduced to using last week's analyst reports for such a (ahem) fundamental purpose. Hope you find some soon....

Sorry BJ but I don't find this a situation that should be laughed over. Take Labour supporters and the Tory supporters out of the question. Take Leavers and Remainers out of the question.
This is now a matter of whether people have access to enough sanitary and food products. And if they do not, what measures will they take to get them?
I can answer that. I'd beg, borrow and steal. Anything to provide for my family.
And If i'm thinking like that, it means that the streets will become a no go zone if the Government moves on from 'Delay'.
