>18 months behind the curve.
Are we seeing food chain issues in the U.S. yet?
I know some grocery chains have had empty shelves for the last 2 month on the East coast. Even Walmsrt is struggling with its supply chains now.
Yes, I am a truck driver by trade at the moment. I can tell you first hand we are going to be having a shortage of everything. Diesel is about to sky rocket, which means prices are going to skyrocket, and then we have 8 dollar a gallon price and NO ONE can pay that up front. my company has 11k trucks and goes through on average 210 gallons of diesel per truck every 24 hours, you think if the price doubles almost over night they will be able to put fuel in their vehicles? There are so many fucking working and moving parts to the supply chain but the one thing you cant fuck with is the Trucks. All those trucks need FUEL to run. NO fuel no supplies, no food and BAM! We all fucked.
Supply is only half the problem. Demand the other half (i.e. hoarders). In Commifornia, hoarders are the biggest problem.
Thank god in Pittsburgh I can buy local and have the co-op, the farmers market, and even a fucking farm in the middle of the city up Atlantic I think up near the cemetery.
