Restricting fertilizer shipments, not grain or crops in general. The problem is, less fertilizer, less production. Also, you don't ship grain to the midwest, you ship it from the midwest.

Idk, I wasn't fucking paying attention when I posted it. What do I look like? Someone who is competent?

Right. The food shortages will come later. The problem is claimed to be a lack of engines and crews needed to carry bulk fertilizer which is usually carried in cars owned by the fertilizer maker, private cars. Priority is being given to shipments in cars owned by the railroad. (Private cars will have an owner mark ending in X, so MKT was a car owned by the Katy RR while UCX might be a car owned by Union Carbide.) They need to start filling those empty returning coal cars (also privately owned). I haven't heard talk of stopping coal shipped in cars which are usually owned by the power company.

I don't know about his background, but you can always tell what kind of porn a guy is addicted to based on his tie.

Every guy who I ever saw wear a tie like that, liked asian porn.

Also he dresses down based on his income. Which means he is probably prone to pressuring. Tells me its likely blackmail and not bribery.

Maybe he cheated on his wife with a hooker--or killed a hooker, or has a bunch of DUIs. Who knows.

Think of it is future grain shipment savings which we pay for today

I mean you're not wrong.

Or taking out railroad bridges
