Time to fire up the victory gardens. I’ve got mine started.

[Harpotoo]

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 ...

[rellic]

Y’all may want to get out of the cities.

[MarMema]

Yep. Don’t forget the pet food when you stock up.

[1Old Pro]

We’re too weak to get to the polls due to lack of food, better mail out ballots.

[Pocketdoor]

Americans have been storing excess calories as fat.

3 Factors Which Are About To Make The Coming Food Shortages Even Worse

Don't know your particular situation, but indoor gardens have become popular and economical. We do some of our growing indoors.

[LastDayz]

Coincidence..... I think not.

[Antoninus]

This sounds amazingly like an alarmist climate catastrophe post. This article contains no facts to back up the alarmism, no timeline for when the shortages will begin hitting in earnest. Just calls to action -- prep now or face major problems in the indeterminate future. It also contains ads for companies hawking prepping materials.

Unhelpful at best.

I’ve heard about this corporation called “Soylent”. They have an IPO coming soon...just stay away from the green.

[Fury]

Re: 14 - Unfortunately yes. Lots of generalities, and they are definitely hawking their wares.

And there’s FReepers that will lap it right up.

[Roman_War_Criminal]

We’ll be like Shanghai in a few months.

All By Design. Act Accordingly.

[Rlsau1]

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.
