Wartime rationing of consumer goods led to what unintended consequence
Wartime rationing of consumer goods led to many unintended consequences. Here are some examples:
- Farmers sold goods to people at inflated rates. Farmers were not subjected to the rationing books to sell.
- Some people began to suffer nutritionally -- mostly poor people.
- Some people found they could get more to eat by eating in the cafeterias near the work places because they did not have to stamp ration books.
- For a while, the babies were not getting enough to eat, and they had to increase the formula and milk ration amounts for them.
- In England, the really sad thing that happened was the extension of the rationing program for 10 years.
- Sometimes people would get their ration books stolen from them (especially the kids who had been evacuated in England), and they could not get them replaced and could not get their books back from the people caring for them.
