Those in the preparedness community as well as anyone who is paying attention have heard all about “supply chain shortages” as well as container ships stacking up on our coasts not being unloaded. Reports state that these shortages are a combination of the effects of COVID shutdowns, difficulty obtaining workers for factories and shipyards, and a demand for products that have outpaced production capacity.
I work in manufacturing and have a very good understanding of supply, demand, transportation logistics, and the difficulties that many industries are having with attaining labor. Many are forecasting that shortages are going to get worse and worse through the winter. With that said I’m having difficulty believing that we cannot get these container ships unloaded in a more expedient manner. Businesses adapt and evolve to overcome obstacles and MAKE MONEY.
Container Ship
While my facility has struggled to keep employees RELIABLY, we just set an all-time production record. Why? We adapt. We overcome. Of course – they have me as well so……
How are millions of workers who supposedly just decided they will not work any longer for offered wages or for any wages for that matter paying bills and surviving? Are they starving? Doubt it. Are they just mooching off relatives that are working or on public assistance? Possibly. The fact that the unemployment rate is down to 5.2% reported directly from the government is telling me that labor is not THAT much of a problem. At least not as much as what is being reported.
US Unemployment Rate
No – this has got to have the hand of the “New World Order”, the “Great Reset”, or some other group of assholes involved. Maybe it’s just the hand of the progressive leftist Deep State. Regardless – I don’t believe that these supply chain shortages are a result of what most are suggesting. It’s planned. It’s a group of asshats targeting power and influence over their minions.
How can we respond? Become as independent from the system as possible. We ALL need to take responsibility for ourselves including health, nourishment, shelter, blah, blah, blah.
The reality is regardless of the reason if we experience any supply shortages as predicted we experience supply chain shortages.
You get the point.

John, I saw an interview of a man who works at a warehouse at a port in CA who said they were waiting for government approval to release shipments. Dubai is predicting this delay will last until sometime in 2023 and Glenn Beck is talking about power shortages in China causing more supply chain disruption.
Thank you for stating the facts in a to the point fashion without all the BS!
Keep up the great work and Keep on Preppin’ ;-}
I believe you are absolutely correct on this, they are Deliberately creating these shortages, all summer long we’ve seen these articles about the government paying farmers to destroy their own crops, farmers having to kill off live stock…? Made up conspiracy’s I think 🤔 not, let’s not forget it was in fact the CIA who coined the phrase “conspiracy theorist” to socially shame anyone who questioned government motives, let’s examine this problem backwards and see if anything clicks here shall we? Let’s say you have a elite group of globalist who want to get rid a Capitalist system that has proven itself over thousands of years, with a America first President who is bringing America back to all of its former glory? Goerge Soros said it best at the United Nations summit that if Trump won in 2020 that the world “in his words” will never be the same…. So with all the worlds leaders in the United Nations apposing the the the new America first agenda, then how do you stop it, before as Soros said in his testimony the damage was irreversible? First you have to destroy the economy, how do you do it? Covid, then you have to rig the election, how do you do it, under COVID you rig elections using a tried and true election method used in be Venezuela, then you pay people to stay home, make it against the law to kick out freeloaders out of rental properties, perhaps sabotage a major shipping lane, or keep key shipping infrastructures down in Democratic strongholds such as California, New York, and Chicago???? Seam like the PERFECT answer to Accelerate your plans of the world take over? Pretty convenient timing wouldn’t you say? I don’t believe in coincidences! Anyone that thinks the government isn’t capable of doing this to people should re-examine their history, governments don’t care about people they never have they care about power.
You should watch this man’s vids. He is an industry insider & knows what is going on in the maritime shipping bussiness.

You are all on point for sure! Think about it. A responsible government would be doing anything necessary to get things moving. National guard troops would be better used unloading ships than pretending to be medical staff in hospitals that just fired their highly trained professionals.
Everything is definitely rigged to take down our precious republic. Reality is shocking day after day.
I wish everyone in this group were my immediate neighbors.
While our government, specifically those associated with the current administration, sits on their thumbs we all should take notice. Just remember, the communist realized early on they could control a population if they controlled their food.
To that end, I have decided to clear out one bay of my garage (it’s currently cluttered with “stuff” from my wood working) and erect sturdy walls to fashion a “root cellar” and storage room. While I could not harvest a crop from the garden this year because of the deer, I hope, God willing, I will this coming year.
Good points everyone !
We also must remember that more than 750,000 people have died in the US alone from covid. The flu of 1918 that lasted 2 plus years took
approx. 740,000 people . Not all of these covid deaths were people that worked but still that may be a PART of the lack of employees.
I also believe that many people after having time with their loved ones and time to reflect on the possibility of dying from covid may be
changing their way of life .. and deciding to do with less material items and spend time with family and nature etc.
Of course I do not trust the powers that be at this current time at all.
The physics law that states a body in motion remains in motion and a body at rest remains at rest- may also be at play here.
Having free food and an income can create a lack of incentive to work but that has pretty much ended at least in NYS .
The price of groceries and all materials is so high now that I also wonder hoe people are getting by if they are not working.-unless they are getting deeper into debt.
Hey Rourke- did you go to the Prepper Camp? How was it ?
A couple of woman friends are coming here to the farm for some target practice this weekend with rifles and pistols.

If the truth ever manages to come out in the end, I think you will find that far more people died from the clot-shot than from the WuFlu.
Arlene,
The Spanish flu killed approximately 50 million worldwide, but only infected about 500 million. Which is approximately 10 percent mortality rate. Covid 19 related deaths are a little over 4.8 million to date worldwide or .02 percent of the 236 million confirmed case worldwide. So, overall Covid 19 has not been worse than the Spanish Flu. Furthermore, the Spanish Flu was unusual because it killed people that were heathy, whereas the majority of people who have died to date with Covid 19, also had underlying heath issues.
