Floods in Midwest: Will you pay more for food after extreme weather?
The
bomb cyclone and flooding that damaged a huge section of U.S. Midwest farmland in March could cost you at the grocery store.
.........
I never even heard of bomb cyclone before.
I think this is all a hoax. Because right wingers told us the climate is not changing.
Will food cost more? Or is it all just a made-up media story?
You can't deny the flooding or call it a hoax. It happened. Since the Midwest still produces much of our food, it's only obvious it would cost more if there is less available...ā¦..you know, that supply & demand thingy. But I doubt it will be just the food prices effected, but other products as well.....that are made from the corn/soybeans, etc.
One good thing at this point is that the flooding happened early enough in the year, there may be a slight chance the land may recover enough to grow crops...but then comes the question of farmers ability to plant & harvest them.
PS...ā¦ā¦ā¦.it's kinda pathetic how you can always put that political spin on every thread
Thatās because politics affects us terribly. Look at Republicans right now trying to take away healthcare from 20 million Americans, thatās all politics.
The Farm Belt faces an expensive cleanup after already-costly record flooding
The flooding even damaged stored soybeans and corn that we normally wouldāve sold to China but because of the Chinese tariffs those crops are sitting in buildings that got flooded.
Weāve never had a president before that caused this much damage to the country in such a short amount of time.
I thought Bush was bad with this fake wars and his tax cuts for millionaires.
But Trump with this tax cuts for billionaires and his tariffs and his attack on the blind, autistic children and the disabled.
Trump is a monster and Republicans are monstrous for supporting him.
