Any concerns about food shortages?

[arakboss]

What is the general consensus as to what a food shortage is, here in the States? Unfortunately I have never experienced a general food shortage in my 50+ years on the planet.


This sounds like a fair definition:

Food shortage occurs when food supplies within a bounded region do not provide the energy and nutrients needed by that region's population.

Personally I think if there is one, it will be from a natural disaster, or it will be manufactured, like the egg shortage.

Better stock up on grease for the egg machines. And for othe rr things.

The current government isn't concerned, it's 40% bigger in the last 4 years.

Okay, show us the numbers.

Right, so… you can't.

Speaking only for my small.family. it's not so much a shortage of food, but a relative shortage of money prices on food have shot up rather sharply in the last year and half. Compounding that issue are two growing children. Oy. Looks like it'll be cheap food for me and the wife and good food for the kids.

That's how it usually goes with good parents when the money gets tight...

Who do you think is handholding and bankrolling those tens of millions of illegals let in in the last few years?

We are... as in: paying more in taxes...

Well, this country apparently needs a newer slave class to, as some politicians have said recently, pick our produce, clean our houses, do our yardwork, etc. Jefferson Davis' ghost.

Yeah, yeah, put your money where your foot is.

Apologies. That was unkind of me.

I usually don't say things like "Snarky Boy" to other NWFA members.

But I was having a bad day, and you earned the title.
