Sure...but for too many folks this is not the generation for common sense...it is the generation of degeneration...

Hearing a lot on the diesel squeeze...bit these charts on margins and inventories are scary...and I don't think most people understand the flexing capacity issues that costs drive and how "conservation" efforts lowering demand exacerbate that...and it will get worse if the economy continues to degrade (see Implode thread) which it will...collapsing demand, collapsing capacity...scarcity.

I've been hearing that our baby formula has been going to the border for ILLEGALS; now this:

They really are trying to kill us all, one way or the other!

Yup, baby formula to Ukraine...and knowing these incompetent by design pukes (it's about harvesting money above all else) it'll be squandered...some lost to the black market, some just rotting in a government warehouse and spoiled...

And SPR to Euro's...

LNG to Euro's...

It's like handouts to deadbeat do-nothing lazy-ass bastards...it breeds no good will, it breeds more dependence, more demands, more envy and sloth!

And when we collapse...we can count on absolutely nothing from them...heck, they'll probably join in the plunder, rape and pillage...

Speaking of handouts, I saw a pic of two signs on mostly bare store shelves regarding baby formula.  One read that there is a limit on formula purchases; the other read that EBT-card holders are exempt from purchase limits.

I wonder how much EBT-card purchases of formula were made and then sold for drug money.

FWIW - https://www.zerohedge.com/political/rand-paul-delays-vote-40-billion-ukraine-package-calls-spending-oversight

Whatever, an IG can only do an autopsy...there is no undoing the deed...

As for this -

...the African producers have also been the most problematic for corruption and theft.

And this...

...will not go over well...and is but the first ripple of many to come...exacerbated intentionally by the hostile to domestic energy occupation government...

Strap in...this ride is about to get fugly...

Yeah...I'll take the "over" on that bet...

Also, a blast from the past...

Evaporated milk is still around.

A man called in to a radio show (which one I cannot remember) saying he was getting his formula from the Netherlands, good stuff he said, but the last two shipments had been confiscated.
