My wife came home from work yesterday and told me that a very large
supply of gasoline the company she works for has been holding in reserve
for corporate operations has been confiscated by the federal government.

Could we have some details on this statement like who your wife works for?
If not this is the kind of fear mongering that will make things go from bad
to worse.

I will not divulge that information.
I haven't seen that the information has been made public as yet.

Curious... Why is it so important that you know what company it is?

You made a statement in a public forum that is of the type that could cause
panic or other negative reaction. When asked for reasonable information to
support your statement you decline.

If you yell fire you might ought to expect someone to ask where the smoke
is.

Its not bitterness at all, perhaps this is the time for the US public to get
a wake up call an see that how they carry on is not sustainable. in terms of
motoring,
when most of us have gone to the effort of having cars with good economy it
just seems stupid to let the resource go where there is tremendous waste.
Maybe if they had to do less driving , (I know, its a sacrifice,) then the
fuel available would go a lot further.

Where do you live? I'm guessing it isn't in an area where the nearest
grocery store is 5 miles away.

The challenges are the roads from the warehouse to the store.
