Dire warnings from top food company CEO's and U.S. senators are sounding the warning bells of a "perfect storm" food shortage beginning at the end of 2022 and running a long time. Next year will be worse than we experienced in 2022. The CEO of the Kraft Heinz company tells us," It's a constant fight between inflation and supply chain demand. Bottlenecks will be a BIG problem in 2023 ". Lingering effects from the pandemic contributes to the global food chain shortage. In the last 12 months, food prices in the United States have risen 11.2% making grocery buying difficult for the majority of working class Americans. Americans have seen empty shelves in food supply chains The Ukraine/Russian conflict has added to the world food shortage also commonly used fertilizers produced in Russia for crop production has been halted by conflict. Between Ukraine and Russia they produce a third of the world's wheat and barley crops. A well written and researched article dated October 18,2022 by reporter Michael Snyder who writes for the newsletter, the most important news, is a good follow up to this article. The food chain will be disrupted for a very long time to come, as no one is willing to negotiate an END to the Ukraine/Russian conflict that would ease and eventually end this food shortage and drain on our treasury. As Americans we never should have gotten involved with the civil war between Ukraine and Russia. And to pour salt into the wounds of high inflation and a food crisis the World Economic forum is taking this time to push their One world order onto the world. It will be tough but we as a people have paddled through troubled waters before and have successfully survived.
