3 million more illegals are getting food stamps and eating us the supply. The demand is great and that is why we are going to get higher and higher inflation as free food pushes up the prices for those that use real money to buy food. Your money is now being robbed from you by the government policies of Biden.
Unfortunately the longshore workers are not the problem, they make an average of $80-$100,000 and there is no shortage. The problem is the shortage of truck drivers, to get the unloaded goods onto the trains or into the warehouses of the retailers. The longshoremen can unload the ships, but need trucks to put the onto, and when the container terminal runs out of room the ships have to remain offshore. Manufacturing here would be a big help, but so would young people becoming truckers, and that is not exactly a glamorous career for someone with a degree in political science, psychology, or IT.
Many owner operators are not making enough on each trip to pay for the fuel.. I bet many truck drivers are swinging their trucks back to the bank and walking away. Biden cutting our life line of oil is raising prices of diesel at very high prices now and it is hurting the trucking industry big time.

Once fuel goes to near 7 a gal for truckers many will just leave the job bob.
I encourage people to hoard everyday. If I see a good deal I’ll post it on our preparedness group page. Not gonna be unprepared and have to wait in hour long lines to get our cup of government manna for the day.
Spot on. Preparing for what is coming so you don't have to be the sad sap waiting in line or going store to store is not a "doom & gloom prepper" situation or any of the extremes some Biden apologists want to make it out to be. It's just a matter of following what the business, logistics and transportation reps are saying and understanding what happened last year is starting to happen again but will be magnified. People are starting to buy whatever they can now, so why not get ahead of this situation rather than waiting and coming up short. Get what you can now so you won't have to spend so much time trying to find it later.
Last year on tv news there was already reminder just buy what you need, do not buy extra groceries, because if all buy extra is not enough. Most stick to buying same quantity and maybe like 1 extra pasta or a extra tea. Here in EU preppers are very few. Also our kitchens are quite small, no place to storage, no pantry.
In summer fridge/freezer died and was/still is shortage household appliances, was not much choice and this is way smaller because was nothing else to buy.
Just because you voted for Biden and are his biggest supporter does not lesson the damage he and your fellow Democrats are inflicting.
If I'm not mistaken he doesn't vote.
