I see food shortages in our future if Kamala gets into the presidency.

Bloat and check stores.

The 'Rats either never learn OR they always pursue Marxist goals. For 70 years they propose the same economic policies and every time they yield the same destructive results.

A poorly informed uneducated public is repeatedly scammed into amputating their freedoms.🤷

It was Nixon who instituted price controls in 1971. It increased inflation and resulted in shortages. It was a disaster.

This is the beginnings of the bill gates crowd controling the food supply.

Only the WalMarts and Costcos will have approved (GMO) tainted food, totally devoid of natural red meat.

The mom and pops and others will be lawfared out of business.

Eventually only the people with good social credit scores will be allowed to shop for food. The rest will eat ze bugs.

Yes, and when this gets enacted, the next thing that will happen is that whatever industry the government first tries to regulate will withdraw from markets that lose their shareholders money.

After that, the government will nationalize that industry and really screw it up. The end result is higher prices, lower quality and food shortages galore.

just sayin...

One of the main reasons I’m contemplating moving to Europe, is they are so much better with their food, in terms of non-GMO.

This will just lead to scarcity.

The price will be cheap, but they won’t have any.

Just like the old Soviet Union.

Tell me that you know nothing about economics without saying that you know nothing about economics.
