Remember folks: we need to learn to be happy with less.

I’m sure the White House has an endless supply of cream.

Substitute an additional Jab for missing food.

Remember—don’t be a selfish hoarder, comrades.

(Unless you are a member of the Central Committee—then go for it!)

I encourage all conservatives to horde as much as possible. It’s time to break the Biden presidency.

The general attitude seems to be that supply chain issues “just sort of happened” and that “there’s nothing we can do”.

And I don’t see Biden doing jack squat to address the problem.

That won’t backfire. Not at all.

I’d like to see truckers boycott deliveries to DC.
The swamp and those servicing them should be happy with less.

Eventually these blue cities will face increased crime in part due to food shortages and truckers won’t want to deliver there.

I’m watching “Dr. Zhivago” on Turner Classic Movies right now so I can see how it’s done.

There's a red flag if I ever saw one. Reading that would make me run out and stock up.

But I'm not an idiot so I saw this coming a long time back and I don't need to run out and stock up. My leftist BIL and his yo yo socialist wife OTOH (Florida) shop on Sunday and never buy more that what it takes to get them to the next Sunday.

I may be wrong, but if I am, I just have a lot of stuff that I'm going to eat anyway. If they are wrong, well that's a different matter. Their attitude is, if there's no food at the store, they'll just hop in their electric BMW (which you and I contributed $7K to) and go out to eat. Gonna be interesting.

Grab what you can before it’s too late!


That’s the way it works and always will.

And pray for the truckers.

Truckers are a vital part of the country’s food delivery supply chain. Due to warehouse labor constraints, truckers out sick with omicron or behind schedule have exacerbated shortages.

The trucking industry is strained, and the American Trucking Associations has sounded the alarm over driver shortages. Chris Spear, the president and CEO of the ATA, estimated last year that the industry is now down a record high of about 80,000 drivers amid the global supply chain crunch.

This time it will be for real. Just how deep remains to be seen.

Buy everything you can and haul ass away from DC! I suggest, south.

B.S. Buy and stock as much as you can to make sure you and your family can have food to eat over the next few months (or years).

A couple of items I’ve been having trouble finding in the grocery store the last few weeks. Found some today. Bought a couple of weeks supply, left a few for other shoppers.

Prediction - government rationing by the end of the year. Probably not until after the election, but maybe before, depending on whether they can keep the supply chain running through the summer.

In my experience, I blame the causes for many commodities’ scarcity on DRIVE TIME RADIO. They’re the first to hype up potential gas supply problems, food shortages, service problems, etc. They claim they are only doing public service but it’s nothing but the one-upmanship of getting that hourly 3 minute lead...it’s disgusting.
