If they didn't learn from the Charmin Wars of 2020, we can't help them.

You don't buy when there's a crisis. You buy BEFORE there's a crisis. We've been stocking up and have over 1000 rolls now. Plus bidets installed on every toilet, wipes, the whole 10. I've been buying 2 12 or 24 packs every week for months and having it delivered to my house. Same with ammo. Watching for flash sales to pop up. Recently got 500 rounds for a little over $200 plus shipping. Always be thinking ahead folks.

Absolutely. The guys who stack their chips early give themselves a position of strength.

But it does. Cheap pulp shipped from Brazil to China. Cheap Chinese labor, and then shipping to the world. But now a shortage of shipping containers cutting off supplies.

the most info I could find was from the US, Australia and Canada, who produce in their own countries.

C'Mon Man. Bambo tp ? China gets their wood pulp from Brazil. Bambo tp could ruin your day.

I believe it was shipping pulp that is needed to make the paper. Made in X stuff is almost all imported and just finished/packaged in X.

No. China produces a vast amount. But they depend of Brazil for pulp. We do make some but not enough to prevent a shortage. You can always use sponges like the Romans did, or Corn cobs like a country boy, but a lot of people are installing Bidens, however California and western states are worried about their water supplies. Soon the rest of Kali will smell like San Francisco.
