Bottom line, the world is NOT lacking any of the ingredients to produce food.It has definitely become more challenging to move food from farm to fridge, however.
This system– harvest, packing, inspection, shipping, warehousing– worked well for decades. The global supply chain only broke down recently, because of the pandemic hysteria, and some of this has undoubtedly affected the food trade.
But, like France’s economic plight in the 1700s, this is mostly a question of bad government.
At its core, there is nothing wrong with the global supply chain.
Need convincing? Consider that Pfizer has been able to produce billions of vaccines, distribute them across the world, and even manage to maintain a temperature of MINUS 90 degrees Centigrade during shipment.
You never hear anyone talk about global supply chain problems when it comes to vaccine distribution. But with respect to baby formula in the United States? Suddenly there’s an insurmountable problem with the global supply chain.
The bottom line is that the global supply chain works, but only when they really want it to work. And their prioritization is utterly disgusting.
They could fix all of it.
If the government is so concerned about high oil prices, why haven’t they fast tracked new production? If they’re so concerned about fertilizer prices, why haven’t they fast tracked permitting for new phosphate mines, potash mines, and fertilizer production plants?
Whether you chalk it up to them deliberately destroying the economy, or it’s just a comical level of incompetence, the results are obviou
And the Baby Formula fiasco is the perfect example.
That’s why it’s so interesting to hear Joe Biden say that the food crisis “is going to be real,” because he seems hell-bent on making it happen.
Even more ridiculous are the solutions to this supposed food crisis.
We have our techno-artistocracy– people like Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg, who want to reimagine how the rest of us paysants should live our lives.
They’re calling for a “green revolution”, which sounds idealistic. Until you see what they’re actually suggesting.
They want to pump our foods full of more chemicals and raise the bar on genetic modification. Gates wants us to eat “synthetic beef” and “alternative protein”. And his buddies at the World Economic Forum think we should eat weeds and insects.
