What Is America’s Tipping Point-How Food
Shortages and Riots Could Be Coming to America
When
I discuss the increased possibility of food shortages and food riots happening
right here in the United States, people look at me like I have lost my mind.
How could that ever happen in the richest country in the world where we have so
much food we export it to other countries? The answer comes as a shock to many
people.
Food
Riots Are Not Always About Food Shortages
Food
riots are about panic, not always reality. The best example is the insanity that
happens every year with Christmas shoppers on Black Friday. The video clips of
people getting trampled for an Xbox or a Barbie Doll are all over YouTube.
The
fact is that there are plenty of gifts for everyone to buy, but the fear is
that you won’t be able to get the exact item you want, when you want and at the
price you want. This is what turns normal people into crazed Black Friday
shoppers.
Food
riots are all too frequently the same. The fact is that most Americans have a
3-day supply or more of food in their homes, and even if they missed a meal or
two, they would be fine. However, when the news reports come out that stores
are running low and panic sets in, we learn firsthand that stores have only a
three day supply of food at best on the shelves, and they can get emptied in a
matter of hours during a panic.
Food Riots Can Cause Food Shortages
So
the fact is that very often, it is not a food shortage that causes a food riot.
However, as crazy as it sounds, the opposite can happen. A food riot empties
out store shelves and then suppliers become reluctant to ship food the next
day, causing a real food shortage. Why don’t they ship the food?
There
are two reasons that suppliers get gun-shy about shipping their food to the
stores in such a scenario. The first is the obvious concern for safety for the
drivers. Everyone remembers how during the Rodney King riots in Los Angeles the
truck driver Reginald Denny was dragged from his truck and beaten half to
death.
The
second reason is that if the panic is due to fears of an impending economic
collapse, then suppliers are concerned that they may not get paid for their
shipments if their customers go under during the turbulent economic events that
are just unfolding.
Or,
even if the customer is rock-solid financially, the fact is that prices can
easily skyrocket in this type of situation, and shipping the goods next week
instead of this week could mean a huge price difference.
So
now that we have looked at the mechanics of how food riots and food shortages
can happen suddenly, the question we all have to ask ourselves is how stable
and secure is our country’s financial situation.
If
we are confident that our leaders have everything under control and the
national debt and the budget deficit are no big deal, and nothing happening
with the Euro will impact us here in America, then we have nothing to worry
about and there is no need to take simple precautions to protect ourselves.
However,
for most Americans familiar with our economic state of affairs and the way our leaders
in Washington are dealing (or not dealing) with things, that is a big “if.”

SIDEBAR
Epic collision: de-dollarization, OPEC cuts oil production,
currency wars and Restrict Act
We have an epic collision of four powerful factors that are all
pointing to the end of America as we know it (and the end of the dollar in due
time).
First,
global de-dollarization is rapidly accelerating as nearly every day, another
nation announces it's ditching the dollar and carrying out international trade
in its own currency.
Meanwhile,
OPEC just dropped a bomb on the global economy by slashing oil production
through the end of 2023. This will cause a spike in energy prices and push
inflation even higher.

7 Things
You'll Realize After Living Without Electricity
If you've ever wondered what it's like to live without
electricity for a long time, just ask the people of Puerto Rico.* Many of them
lived without power for nearly a year. And according to a Harvard study, the death
rate in Puerto Rico nearly doubled after Hurricane Maria do to a lack of air
conditioning and medical care.
It has been estimated that if the power went out all over the
United States for a full year, 90% of the population wouldn't
survive. That's how dependent we are on the power grid, which is a scary
thought considering that a cyber attack or an EMP could bring it down at any
time.
In this article, we'll take a look at some of the luxuries we
take for granted. Here are seven things you'll realize after the power grid
goes down...

The
vulnerability of our national power grid is probably the most serious threat to
our existence, and if it goes down, it can be even deadlier than the current
pandemic.
When the power goes out, and
people are left without electricity for long periods of time, they will panic,
and things may never turn back to normal. Can you and your family survive a

8 Basic
Survival Skills to Teach Your Children
As parents, we want to protect our children from harm. It’s in
our DNA. So we diligently prepare for possible emergencies, and we educate
ourselves on how to survive them.
Teaching your children to rely on you is a good thing, but we
can’t possibly be with them at all times. Would your kids know what to do if
they were on their own in a survival situation? If not, it’s time to teach your
children some basic survival skills.
Your kids learn best by doing, so this spring and summer, make
your camping and hiking excursions into opportunities to learn survival
techniques. Even a walk in the woods can become a teachable moment as you share
observations and information that could save their lives in a survival
scenario...

The collapse
of the dollar will be the collapse of the financial system, which will be very

billionaires that could potentially be in food lines. They are going to
lose their wealth.

to hell we go-thank you 'progressive' pukes...
Every where we look, a new Biden load of crap hits the fan!
So sad but a core element of our demise has been the brainwashing of our younger generation [what we call the Terminal Generation]...since the 60s our education system has been hijacked by Marxists as has our media & many, many evil politicians.
The buying power of the dollar is declining before our eyes and explains, “A little over 15 months now, M2 money supply has contracted by about 5%. This is the first time since the 1930’s where money supply actually contracted. How is it the dollar is dropping in value versus other fiat currencies? The dollar is clearly dropping in value versus gold because we are over $2,000 per ounce, and inflation is really not abating. How is it that inflation is not abating if there are less dollars outstanding by 5%? You should have seen a decline in prices over the last 6 to 12 months, and we are not seeing that. . .
Never thought I would see the day when I had to fight off violent thoughts but these rat bastards on the left have me steaming!
The new numbers have shown a comeback for inflation, surging to its highest levels in six months, and it’s now looking like there’s little chance our liar n chief can put this cat back in the bag.
Brace yourself-it will likely get worse under current feckless ‘leadership.’
