The UN has been warning of this food shortage for over a year and nothing has been done about it. It seems like it was planned, everything coming together perfectly, COVID pandemic, fuel prices (green initiative), fertilizer shortage, Ukraine farming disruption, Bill Gates and China buying up farm land....

“...Bill Gates and China buying up farm land...”

Any theories as to why?

During Mao’s Great Famine, the Irish Famine, Holodomor, and others, some despots continued to export food even while their own people were eaten by family members. US is lining up now in this category.

I made a comment yesterday that our subsidized farmers will likely sell to the export market because fedgov will make sure that's the only way to make a profit or at least break even.

Bulk dried beans and rice are still available to those who can read writing on the wall.

“Any theories as to why?”

When we need production and he owns all the locations for production, he can charge whatever he wants to use the land. Our poor and middle classes will die or turn to crime to feed their families.

MtnClimber :" The UN has been warning of this food shortage for over a year and nothing has been done about it.

COVID pandemic,

All of these crises are man-made
and have been ignored by governments
until it smacks them in the face (!), and then they panic .
Also, all these issues lead to further the efforts of "The Great RESET".
Now, add to all these issues any natural occurring event
(drought, flooding, hurricane / monsoon, early freeze),
and now you have a catastrophe that could lead to civil mayhem and revolution !

His last words

Those who have prepared can sail through the stormy seas and live to tell the tales. Those who have not prepared — may die by the hundreds of millions if not more. Pandemic, Famine, War — Three Muskateers.

Just got an email from JD Rucker, The Late Prepper. "Get Out of the City".

Once you fully believe that the shit will hit the fan at some point, if you live in a city or even a blue area, it's time to move. I moved to rural flyover country 10 years ago.

I used to store a lot of beans and rice and other items like salt and sugar, canned goods etc. When we moved from the East coast to rural MO, we brought hundreds of pounds of food. Things have gotten thinned down but it's time to bulk them up again. I did a little stocking up on the last grocery trip and will be doing so on every trip for a while.

How many nations have recently announced protectionist moves when it comes to foodstuff? Gotta be a dozen including India and China. There's a lot of things lining up that made those nations do that. Ukraine/Russia due to that situation.

Good theories.

Six states have laws that prohibit foreign ownership of land: Mississippi, Hawaii, Oklahoma, North Dakota, Iowa, and Minnesota. All 50 should have the same no-foreign-owned farmland laws. IMO.

(to those who can read writing on the wall.)

The handwriting is certainly on the wall.

Meanwhile a bunch of Christians are running around with normalcy bias and overly-concerned with the cares of this life. The latter includes me, as my job has virtually consumed me over the last year.

In fact, I’ll have to probably go in tonight as we’re correcting a couple of problems that interfered with timely production.

I worked an extra hour and a half, left work at 5:40 a m. (By the time I got to the car) and wasn’t even close to finishing, despite an extra 1.5 hours of work.

(”The Great RESET”)

The Globalists are going to get their New World Order.

Daniel 7:23 confirms this.

They are also going to get Satan’s anti-messiah.

The handwriting is on the wall.

I say these things to planet Earth - wake up

We’re about in the 11th hour.

And canned food, pasta, noodles, flour, yeast.
Good even if the grid goes down, which is likely.

Sometimes normalcy bias forces normalcy - as the tyrants can't easily generate the mass panics they need.

The OGUS Communists aren't as powerful as they think they are - not yet. They underestimate the average American's talent for completely ignoring their hysterics and getting the job done, anyway.

Well, they did do a lot with COVID-19(84)

First couple of weeks I had to carry an authorization letter from work in case the police stopped me for being on the road, driving, during the lockdown.

Two weeks to flatten the curve and all that.

“The kill shot for farmers is best had at harvest time”

But there will be some bargain farmland available for our overlords. ALL HALE GATES.
