Lived on Maui and Oahu in 1971-1975 ,this is all true !!
The economy in Hawaii was trashed during the embargo and recession and eventually left me unemployed. Gas lines were extremely long. Much gas was wasted sitting in line but I never witnessed violence but I did observe much chatting while in line. TP became very scarce and would get stolen from public bathrooms. Best to have a little stash for emergencies when out and about. Same result with TP whenever a strike threatened. I think most everyone learned to hoard a small TP stash.
