Meanwhile, Amazon price gouges people by selling such supplies at huge mark-ups (e.g., $30 for a box of surgical masks that should be $7, $5 per a tiny bottle of hand sanitizer) & pays zilch in federal taxes. Talk about sh*tty.
I use very good dustmasks related to my hobbies. I went to look at my Amazon purchase history and all the brands of masks I bought over the years are sold out or 5 times the price.
The government really screwed up by not ordering defense act production and resources towards N95 masks and equivalent designs.
