OK, let's talk about the bad and the stupid...there is some crossover in those two as always...
The bad - The plandemic insanity crushing businesses and livelihoods and decimation of the logistics struggling to support what producers might be trying to bring to market...the exploding inflation...now hearing that as a result of the shooting war in Europe, the ongoing cyber warfare occurring and the hyperactive economic warfare happening and the batshyt-crazy JoeFraud regimes policies to crush American energy production and driving us into the arms of enemies loving high oil prices...now many warnings about a global food shortage that could last at least 2-3 years...
Beef - We've all seen beef prices go apesh!t...now they're calling beef
"luxury meat".
Well, sheeeit...JoeFraud and his merry band of Marxist goons see EVERYTHING as a luxury! They are making gas prices soar, Gruesome Newsom is giddy over people having to walk away from their petro vehicles and prepping naked dances in praise of Gaia...they are making natural gas soar without no alternative for serfs to go to other than raiding forests for firewood no amount of policing will be able to stop...

Of course it isn’t just meat supplies that are going to be tightening. Ukraine and Russia normally account for about 30 percent of all global wheat exports, but now the war is going to cause that number to drop precipitously.
As panic about global food supplies spreads, some countries are already placing restrictions on how much can be sent out of the country.
For example, on Wednesday Indonesia “tightened curbs on palm oil exports”.
And in eastern Europe, Serbia, Hungary and Bulgaria have all recently made moves to make sure that their people have enough to eat…
Serbia announced on Wednesday it will ban exports of wheat, corn, flour and cooking oil as of Thursday to counter price increases while Hungary banned all grain exports last week.
Bulgaria has also announced it will increase its grain reserves and might restrict exports until it has carried out planned purchases.
Ukraine, known as the “breadbasket of Europe” given it’s long been among the world’s top ten wheat exporters and supplied over $6 billion in agricultural products to the European Union in 2020, has issued an emergency order Wednesday banning the export of grains and other products.
The ban includes the export of wheat, oats, millet, buckwheat, sugar, live cattle, meat, and other products considered vital to the global economy. But amid wartime, and with Ukraine’s government saying many of its citizens are now starving under Russian siege, Ukraine’s minister of agrarian and food policy Roman Leshchenko said the drastic action was taken to avert a “humanitarian crisis in Ukraine,” stabilize the market and “meet the needs of the population in critical food products,” according to the AP.
Lebanon could face wheat shortages from July, forcing the government to reduce subsidized flat rounds of Arabic bread, which sustain the 80 percent of Lebanon’s population who live in poverty, according to a report by The Irish Times. Flour mills in Lebanon delivered supplies only to bread bakeries on Monday and Tuesday, forcing bakers who make pastries and thyme pizzas to close as a means of rationing wheat imported from Ukraine, which supplies 60 percent of the country’s wheat needs.
Here in the United States, fertilizer prices are causing havoc for farmers all over the country.
If you don’t believe me, perhaps you will believe a prominent farmer from Iowa that Tucker Carlson just interviewed…
Ben Riensche, the owner of Blue Diamond Farming Company in Iowa and a farmer of 16,000 acres in that state, told Carlson that the sanctions will have a far-reaching impact on our food supplies in the very near future.
“Soaring fertilizer prices are likely to bring spiked food prices,” Riensche said. “If you’re upset that gas is up a dollar or two a gallon, wait until your grocery bill is up $1,000 a month, and it might not just manifest itself in terms of price. It could be quantity as well. Empty-shelf syndrome may be starting.”http://endoftheamericandream.com/beef-is-now-a-luxury-meat-and-goldman-sachs-says-to-brace-for-one-of-the-largest-energy-supply-shocks-ever/There is a blurb in the link too about AAA seeing an uptick in thieves siphoning gas from vehicles...that will get worse too.
Most of this could be mitigated if nations weren't ruled by complete assholes!
