We’re Beyond the Point of No Return on Food Shortages
NOQ Report ^ | April 19, 2022 | JD Rucker

Posted on 04/19/2022 10:04:54 AM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

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...

Well, in a food shortage, vermin are just a little extra source of protein.

“US is already at 20% and rising”

And rent/mortgages are usually between 25-30% of household income as well, and taxes are between 35-50% of income depending on which state you live in.

Which leaves, for many people, somewhere quite close to zero % once you pay for food, roof and Uncle Sam. Something’s got to give.

You’re the one who thinks it’s a good idea.

Now Biden plans to increase the amount of ethanol in gasoline. Brilliant!!! Using more corn to make ethanol will will certainly help alleviate the upcoming food shortage.

Also, increasing ethanol production will increase, rather than reduce, the demand for petroleum products. "It takes more energy to make ethanol from grain than the combustion of ethanol produces." (Source: Cornell University Study)

LOL. Not me, pal. But that would be the natural inclination for someone predicting massive corn shortages. Are you all in or aren't you? If not, why not?

Ask everybody with a backyard chicken coop to donate their flock droppings.

Plenty of nitrogen in chickie poop.

Everything the Biden administration does is harmful to the people of this country. Everything.

This goes well beyond stupidity. It is intentional.

Remember this moment in about a year when, if you had started accumulating food then, you wouldn’t be starving.
