We are a LONG way from a collapse of the supply chain.
We were one hell of a lot closer to a collapse of the supply chain April-July 2020 and even then it didn't collapse -- it just groaned. To say the situation today is anything like those special months at the height of the pandemic is not based in reality.
More importantly, the commodities that were off the shelves -- toilet paper, dairy products, meat, hand sanitizer, etc.? Supply of those items is, for the most part, back to something near normal.
And the primary cause for that wasn't supply chain issues, it was caused by people being retarded panic monkeys and buying 2,000 rolls of toilet paper, 250 pounds of ground beef (and not having a freezer to store it in).... in other words, being hoarding aholes.
We're nowhere near the kind of supply chain collapse suffered by Venezuela or many of the other nations that have experienced hyperinflation. In those instances the supply wasn't sitting on a ship waiting to be unloaded or rotting in a field, it was non-existent.
Those nations suffered a supply chain collapse because the production end of the supply chain failed.
I'll say that again... the PRODUCTION END of the supply chain failed.
In both nations farmers quit selling their produce because government policies made money worthless. Manufacturers couldn't get raw materials because, again, the money was worthless.
Those ships sitting in LA Harbor full of TVs and computers and other goods waiting to be unloaded?
That means that the production end of the supply chain has not collapsed.
The record and near record harvest figures for many US agricultural products in 2020 and 2021?
That means that the production end of the supply chain has not collapsed.
