The fear porn is running thick these days. We have enough food. We have stores of food. We have reserves of food and our ability to produce enough food is beyond a doubt. The only way we will experience shortages is by a massive effort by bad actors and other assorted leftist monsters.
Whoa there, some get very, very upset when you don’t join them in the chicken little schtick.
We have enough food.
How true! During the 1930s Depression the US produced so much food that meat was the cheapest thing to buy. Steak for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Problem was, so many could not find jobs and were unable to buy the cheap food.
So the FDR administration came up with a plan to raise the prices by culling the herds of livestock. They bought up tens of thousands of cattle, had them shot and buried them. And they refused to give the poor any of that meat.
One of the locals, who had to sell his livestock, told the government agent that within Ten Years, they would wish they had all that livestock back.
Ten years later that same agent who destroyed the herds was crying to the ranchers to increase beef production “for the war effort!”
Her is an article on just Nebraska. It happened all over the US.
