At this point, only God can prevent massive food shortages from hitting the United States in the near future. We knew things were bad when even Joe Biden’s handlers instructed him to warn the world last month that we would all be experiencing food shortages soon. Now, it seems to be a foregone conclusion.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but we’re in the middle of a perfect storm of events that will lead to even higher prices and extreme food scarcity. The stage was set by Pandemic Panic Theater. The Ukraine-Russia war made things much worse as fertilizer and grain exports from the region have dried up. Add in the bird flu, the Biden regime’s destructive economic policies, supply chain issues that existed long before the Russian invasion, drought across farmland on the west coast, and fewer workers engaged in producing food in America and all of a sudden it seems as if widespread food shortages could come as soon as later this year.
On the latest episode of The Midnight Sentinel with JD Rucker, I dove into this notion as both a warning as well as a call to action. In nearly every situation, I call on people to work together to fix the problems we face. Protests, pressuring politicians for legislation, lawsuits, and even civil disobedience when appropriate are all in our Fix-This-Nation Toolbox. Unfortunately, nothing in our toolbox can fix the economic turmoil we’re facing. We can make improvements, but these will be incremental and futile.
Think of it like using a fire extinguisher. With nearly every problem our nation faces at any given moment, we can treat it like a small fire on our stove. All we need to do is get a political fire extinguisher...

Time to fire up the victory gardens. I’ve got mine started.
F it! When I get hungry enough I’m gonna eat the rich (DEMS:-)

Yes. Problem last year, was keeping out vermin like gophers and other animals. Next year, the vermin may be the two-legged variety.
Food shortage .... Just in time...to suspend the November 2022 (s)elections indefinitely ...
Y’all may want to get out of the cities.
Yep. Don’t forget the pet food when you stock up.
We’re too weak to get to the polls due to lack of food, better mail out ballots.
Americans have been storing excess calories as fat.
Don't know your particular situation, but indoor gardens have become popular and economical. We do some of our growing indoors.
Coincidence..... I think not.
I’ve heard about this corporation called “Soylent”. They have an IPO coming soon...just stay away from the green.
Re: 14 - Unfortunately yes. Lots of generalities, and they are definitely hawking their wares.
And there’s FReepers that will lap it right up.
We’ll be like Shanghai in a few months.

All By Design. Act Accordingly.
I read somewhere recently that generally speaking when food costs exceed 30% of disposable income there are usually really bad consequences to law and order (hungry people do desperate things), and the US is already at 20% and rising.
Also, when people are faced with feeding their family or paying other bills which option do you think they will choose?
Probably be some major financial problems due to defaults on mortgages, rent, utilities, credit cards, loans, etc. It’s easy to see Washington responding with a debt jubilee.
