" 50 years ago when there was a semblance of self sufficiency on the islands it could weather a storm pretty well, alas no more."
I lived on Oahu 50 years ago. At the mere mention of a dock workers strike the store shelves would be bare. Toilet paper first.
Once, a rumor started going around that there was a toilet paper shortage in Japan and Japanese tourists were seen filling their suitcases with TP.
Poof the stores were empty on a baseless rumor.
