I agree with that. The biggest hit to our food production is energy supplies, which we have.TheOneX wrote: ↑Fri Jul 16, 2021 9:07 amThose are all luxury items. We have plenty of corn, wheat, beans, beef, chicken, and pork. As long as we have all of that we will be good, just might have a bit less variety.The Conservative wrote: ↑Fri Jul 16, 2021 9:00 amA lot of middle eastern spices, Asian herbs,etc... I would love to say the US would be all set, but honestly, unless the US diversifies it's growing profile, we will lose a lot of things we see year round.

Yes.
If MIT's computer model is accurate, our world would look a lot like Pre-WWI. Where most food and material production is pretty local, animals would be used as a power source again. It would be the Fall of Rome.

You guys are assuming that Agri-corps won’t export all the food to the highest bidder. And given the future state of our economy, that’s not necessarily us.

That's very real. In fact, they are doing it right now. China is buying up everything they can get their hands on, that flood last year really fucked them. And we have a history of bailing out people who are political enemies.SuburbanFarmer wrote: ↑Fri Jul 16, 2021 9:21 amYou guys are assuming that Agri-corps won’t export all the food to the highest bidder.

We could have strangled the CCP at the time of Tianemen, but Bush I bailed them out and set up Globalization. We could have starved out the Soviets, but aided them.

It's called the gutting of Amerika. There's not enough ports to import all the stuff we're buying by inflating the fuck out of King Dollah.

If I understand, they’ve decided to cut off all imports to CONUS, in favor of California…Zlaxer wrote: ↑Fri Jul 16, 2021 9:28 amSuburbanFarmer wrote: ↑Fri Jul 16, 2021 9:26 amI’m not sure how to interpret this, but it’s big.

ALL of the commercial crab-fishing on the OR/WA coast goes to China. They pay double/triple what the American distributors will, and have contracts that specify EVERY crab.SuburbanFarmer wrote: ↑Fri Jul 16, 2021 9:21 amYou guys are assuming that Agri-corps won’t export all the food to the highest bidder.

there's plenty of other COnUS ports.
