Mark,

In my opinion, the more prepared the populace is, the less chance of a panic, and the more time will be there after the problems hit to rectify the problems before the public becomes unruly.

Bingo! Couldn't have said better. Seems that our government is much more concerned with the potential problems of "overreaction" (e.g., spot shortages) than with the potential of under-preparation (e.g., civil disorder, starvation, etc.). An extraordinary gamble in my opinion.
