"The ongoing “crisis on the rails” has paralyzed farmers, leaving them literally “hours away from depopulating herds.” The rail crisis, which is “harming the nation’s economy,” impacts the supply chain of U.S. agriculture, energy, and shipping across the board. To address the severe situation, the Surface Transportation Board (STB) held a hearing in late April, giving those affected the opportunity to speak. Pilot Flying J CEO Shameek Konar spent his time during the extensive testimony revealing the unprecedented difficulties his company faces following unheard-of restrictions imposed by Union Pacific Railways.

Operating the largest network of travel centers in the United States, Pilot Flying J was founded by James A. Haslam II in 1958. Headquartered in Knoxville, TN, the company accounts for nearly 20 percent of the nation’s over-the-road diesel supply and 30 percent of the diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) supply. Threatened by a severe reduction in rail service allocations, the company heavily relies on the railroads to deliver its product."

The backbone of our country is farmers and truckers. Guess who Biden's administration has hurt the worst with their policies? Couple that with wide open borders and our Homeland Security (LMAO!) Head Myorkas promising to make their processing more efficient. Who does Biden represent?

Rather than wondering who to blame, at this point, I think folks need to be planning what comes next. That there is a food shortage coming is obvious. That we face an actual crash or collapse of the global economy is undeniable as well. We have reached the "kill phase" of the great reset. For a new system to be put in place, the old one must be removed. I wonder if the Left will actually try to impose martial law before the '24 election. If the collapse occurs prior to then - entirely possibly - then there may be enough chaos that martial law is justifiable.

The greatest question for each person is what they are willing to do to keep from being crushed under a government boot and to provide food for their family. Hard choices are on the horizon and it's best to be thinking about it before the day they must be made.

The US is in no danger of running out of food. Our choices may well become more limited but there will be no famine in the US unless our heavy transportation is shut down.

It's a slow trap.

Kind of like some wild hogs are too smart to walk into a trap. But if you put up one side of a trap and put food there, then a couple days later you put up another side and some food, then couple days later a 3rd side and some food they will keep going around until one day all 4 sides are up with a sliding door that comes down behind the hog and traps him.

Or the frog you throw in a pot of boiling water it will jump out. But if you put it in a pot of room temperature water and slowly turn up the heat it will stay in till it's boiled alive.

If you do some evil shit slowly no one really pays attention until it's too late.

Yes. Right now they are getting you used to hearing the words "food shortages" even though this is still the most fabulously wealthy country in the world. Once people stop thinking about the inherent contradiction they go the next step. Starve them.
