“If I had to go buy ONE thing before the shelves go bare, what would it be?.....serious question...”

First thing that comes to mind is meds, if you need them for anything. The shortages are certain there.

Beyond that, all I can say is think of what you may need for whatever time frame you can afford between 3 months and 5 years (just estimates/guesses on my part). If you were going to buy a car in that window, maybe get it now. Same for appliances. Stuff like that.

It’s a police state. Nothing is changing without violent insurrection.

We’ve been getting these “it’s worse than” stories daily since the get-go...when will someone answer the question, “How bad is it really?”?

In the vid, the trees have leaves on them.

It’s winter in Wuhan.

That vid wasn’t taken recently.

One thing working against your theory, though, is the lack of a coordinated, or in fact, any Democrat/media response/attack on Trump due to this virus. In the past, the Democrats would have flooded the airwaves attacking Trump the moment the first person in China got the sniffles. This time they’ve been virtually silent...it’s weird, and scary.

Good point.

Good point.

It also stands out that this is a business district.

Who takes their family down to a business district to lay their bodies out?

Wouldn’t they accumulate in neighborhoods near family family dwellings, single or multiple unit buildings?

Depends, hunkering down to bailing? Ammo, liquor, or tobacco....any of them can barter for whatever you need.

but this year, 2 weeks out and counting, NO CHANGE, none of the 42% has come back, and if anything, consumption has even dropped a bit.

I am watching oil. Oil tanker shipping prices are tracked by something called a World Scale, which is a calculated average of shipping rates on all global routes. WS100 is a baseline, so if you are getting WS110, you are getting a ten percent premium on your ship relative to the global average.

In December, the tanker routes to China were at about WS110-WS120. Today they are around WS30. They have dropped by about 75% since December.

Dry cargos have been hit just as badly.

This is the thread that, having been pulled, unravels the whole global economy.

For example...if you drink water that’s been municipally treated...guess where those treatment chemicals come from...
