Sooner they get rid of the GD gasohol I’ll be one happy camper.

Premium unleaded fuel (with the proper 2 cycle mix) RUINED MY BRAND NEW CHAINSAW.

2 cycle engines hate fuel cut with alcohol!!!!!!

Start solving the problem by quitting growing food for fuel.

People need to switch to eating sunshine and wind. Carbon based foods are causing galaxy orbit change. We're all going to end up inside a supermassive black hole. </s>

And its even worse because, no matter what domestic farm policies are in place, the US is still a net IMPORTER of food. And the exporters are having a difficult time because their fertilizer prices are through the roof such that many are shutting down.

Go buy stuff now when you can. When the shelves eventually run bare, one will thank themselves.

For now, my Dad who lived through the entire Great Depression said many times you never saw or even heard of a deer as they were hunted out..Those times will come again..He said he and my Uncle had to hunt all day to find rabbits and squirrels..

Corn/soybean. That’s what all the big subsidized farmers grow. Seems we’re too reliant on those two items.

Be careful with that.

The beauty of having a well stocked pantry in anticipation of future shortages is if there turns out to be no food shortage you still get to eat what is in your pantry.

That caught my eye as well.

Did a little digging (heh!) and it seems they do actually use LN2 in bringing out the fertilizer.

“Let me repeat, the economics will NOT work.”

Gee. How many DECADES now have we been screaming this at Congress with NO notice by them, whatsoever!?!?

“If you’re hitting the grocery store to prepare for winter weather, please just buy what you need and leave some for others! You may have noticed empty shelves in some stores due to national supply chain issues, but there is no need to buy more than you normally would.”

Yep. And Chocolate Rations will ‘increase’ from 10 grams to 5 grams this week! Thanks, Mayor Bowser! *SPIT*

“They put in an image of an androgynous ‘person’ of medium color so as to not offend anyone and so that anyone can identify with them.”

That’s 0bama’s imaginary girlfriend, Julia! *SNORT*

Glad to see she’s still employed, LOL!

“I grew up so poor”

As did we. But parents and grandparents always had a garden, canned and froze everything. Freemartin heifer in the freezer, and canned up too. It wasn’t fancy, but we all got by. We were skinny.

One of those trucks would’ve come in very handy in August 2020 when the BLM/Antifa Pukes were tearing up State Street in ‘The People’s Republic of Madistan.’ ;)

We only import 15% of our food. We are not going to have a food shortage. Much of our farmland is unused.

The Soviet Union had economic hardship with mostly law abiding citizens and tough law enforcement.

Imagine a country with economic hardship that coddles criminals.
