Nah.
Starvation’s a commie control tactic...
BLM and Antifa are commie organizations - starvation causes chaos... So yeah, democrats will likely use it a month or so before the election.
Brink, hell, they’re in the middle of it.
America grows its own food, and lots more than we need. China doesn’t, has to import.
So do the Chinese admonish their children - eat your vegetables- people are starving in America?
"Ok, you can give them this."
nope
other smaller older ones did along the way
lots and lots of flooding did occur even without 3gd failing
What a silly headline. As long as China has sufficient monetary assets she buys food on the world market as we all do.
Sometimes we are buying and sometimes we are selling. Due to the USA's most incredible farming system we are sellers and not buyers.
China’s communist asswipe leaders are in DEEP SHIITE.
Absolutely.
Just like the virus.
“If you knew how long I had to queue at the market to get that dinner and that was all they had left, then you’ll damn well eat every last bit of that bat and enjoy it!”
Corruption has left their food storage depleted. Hiding it from the people. Major shortage coming.
Eat everything on your plate was my mom’s mantra for us growing up. You just did it.
What’s the use? They are hungry an hour later.
No, this is specifically a China problem.
They had to kill a lot of chickens due to avian flu, they had to kill a lot of pigs due to swine flu, and thought they were going to buy the replacement food from us. Then the pandemic hit and ships were staying away from China.
Now we are in a trade “war” with the Chinese and other people have stopped selling to them also. The typhoon didn’t help.
They are looking at a very bleak future if they do not accept the reality of their actions.
Was thinking the same thing.
When China won’t ship back our chickens we will only start to realize how much food actually comes from them.
My house was you didn’t want to eat it...you didn’t eat.
But that just means that China has the money and ships to buy its way out of its own sudden shortfalls in food production. Globally, the shortfall still exists, and it will be felt by those least able to compete financially with China in the grain markets. Belt tightening time for the Arab world.
Stressed, but not yet.

The You tube poster thinks there is erosion under the base of the dam. This has been speculated for some time.
Somewhere I read that as engineered, they did not provide a way to sluice out sediment/silt building up behind the dam. I would assume—I am not an engineer—that as time passes there is increasing silt build up, and the total volume of water that can be held by the catchment is reduced.
Still waiting to see what happens, I guess.
Count on it.
Baloney.
We produce 20% more food than Americans can eat right now, and could produce half again as much if the market signaled the need.
Why do you think the exports to China are so important to President Trump?
It's because the United States is awash in food stuffs, and exports are critical to keeping American Farmers not just profitable, but to keep them from going broke because food prices would fall into the basement without exports, and the farmers would go bankrupt.
