Buttigieg on supply chain gridlock: Biden's plan is working
afn ^ | 10/19/21 | Chris Woodward

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg doesn't appear to be concerned that U.S. supply chain issues likely will continue into 2022.

"That's the one thing he is correct about," says Peter St. Onge, research fellow for The Heritage Foundation, a center-right think headquartered in Washington, D.C. "This administration has no plan, boots on the grounds are saying it's getting worse, and Wall Street and companies are warning [the issue could persist into] 2022, possibly even 2023."

Buttigieg made his comments to Jake Tapper on CNN's "State of the Union" program, adding that part of what is happening isn't just the supply side:

"It's the demand side. Demand is off the charts. Retail sales are through the roof. And if you think about those images of ships, for example, waiting at anchor on the West Coast? Every one of those ships is full of record amounts of goods that Americans are buying – because demand is up, because income is up, [and] because the president has successfully guided this economy out of the teeth of a terrifying recession.

George Winston (1984): Razor blade production has decreased by 20%.
Big Brother: Razor blade production has increased by 20%.

Change the names: George Winston is the American people.
Big Brother is Buttigieg (aka Biden Administration).

Whenever Biden executes a gargantuan screw up, his acolytes come out with the, “this is an outstanding success” or “Biden’s plan is working” sh*t.
Nobody is buying it.
