If true, this is truly worrying. A catastrophe of Biblical proportions. Are the End Times here?
The world seems to have been virtually shrunk where everything is so close together, with complex inter-dependencies, that the incompatible elements (China, USA, Russia, Islam, etc.) will explode and expose just how vulnerable this “global economy” really is. Everything is “lean” and “just in time”...until it isn’t.
We’re far too dependent on China. Corporate strategies always drive to squeeze more profit and the consumer always chooses the cheapest item. We’ve been taking advantage of Chinese slave labor - which is what it is, their government has basically pimped out their peasants as global slaves - and now it could well come back to bite us hard. Our politicians sellout our country, enriching themselves. I swear the Ukraine is a money laundry service for them.
We’re all responsible. I also think it is inevitable that it falls apart, call it Biblical as it is predictable.
The famine will hit the usual countries as it always does when there’s an economic blitz that hits the International community. I suspect N.Korea, Africa, Haiti nd any country that depends on food distributions from the Un or other countries.
In my mothers day, after dad died so young and she raised four kids on her own ....she knew how to stretch a penny. She improvised in so many amazing ways we never knew as kids we were poor...... Therefore I also have those skills.
They’re about to begin, IMHO
