How soon before China takes Taiwan ? N Korea attack the South ? We could see the beginning of WW3.. ... At least our oil reserves are topped off...The rest of the world knows about the food shortage to come, and many are ignorant of it.
It's hard to sell a "shortage" when you can walk into Sam's or Costco and see pallets of Sugar, Flour, Rice, etc.The rest of the world knows about the food shortage to come, and many are ignorant of it.
When two Countries go to war, it suddenly becomes an opportune time to slip into that conflict that's been on the back burner.How soon before China takes Taiwan ? N Korea attack the South ? We could see the beginning of WW3.. ... At least our oil reserves are topped off...

Kind of throws a wrench into the notion that China has the Ability to control the weather...unless the conditions were by design.The past few years China has had some really bad luck with weather. Last year in the northern part of China there were devastating droughts. There were several major rivers that ran dry. Crops were hammered and the yields were crap. In the south-east part of China there was major flooding that also destroyed crops on a large scale. With that run of bad luck the prices for food started to go up. Just like in this country. Another factor was the flooding in Pakistan. Nearly 1/3 of the country was under water. Pakistan exports a lot of food to China. You can't export what you don't have. As a result of these factors China has been stockpiling food. I don't blame them one bit. If i were in the same boat i would do the same. Keep in mind when food prices go up in one part of this world they tend to rise everywhere else too.
It would seem Mother Nature has had a hard on for China the last few years.Kind of throws a wrench into the notion that China has the Ability to control the weather...unless the conditions were by design.
Covid was just a test. It didn't expose any of our vulnerabilities, it just highlighted how we would overcome them. The next situation will be an attack on the areas we showed resiliency.It is scary just how fragile our supply lines are. The COVID ordeal proved just that. It seems we are always one incident away from disaster and yet we have little to no redundancy in our vital systems.
Yeah, but where was it packaged and/or who owns the plant where it was produced?It's hard to sell a "shortage" when you can walk into Sam's or Costco and see pallets of Sugar, Flour, Rice, etc.

Bingo.Covid was just a test. It didn't expose any of our vulnerabilities, it just highlighted how we would overcome them. The next situation will be an attack on the areas we showed resiliency.
I won't be surprised if we lose one of those ships.Whatever happens, the West will start it. Likely some BS event with the narrative that it was someone else that started it. We saw this when they said the West would have to respond to Putin in Ukraine with nukes, which gave the impression Putin said something about using nukes. He didn't. It was all for show and to set a narrative for the public. It worked. So keep an eye out for a narrative of blame being teed up.
Don't be surprised if the two carrier groups are the narrative.
gotta keep that Shipyard in full operation! So Congressman's re-election depends on it.I won't be surprised if we lose one of those ships.
