New here
Hey, I am new to the thread but After a very long and boring shift, I have began to consider if we are actually in the starting phase of what we have prepped for….. except it’s a slow chokehold and not a rapid collapse.
1.)Rising cost of goods and commodities have definitely driven home since Covid and it won’t be long before we start to see supply chain issues again. Local grocery stores have been bought out by Walmart and harps.
2.)Infrastructure is beginning to fail at a larger scale.
3.) the school systems are cutting programs and consolidating near me as funding is shrinking for rural schools.
4.) a quarter of the ag fields/rice paddy’s around me are not even planted (meaning produce is going to be in shortage even if it’s not a widespread)
5.) good factory jobs have left, leaving most young people to be stuck with the worse factories or having to travel. The ones who travel almost never return home so the money they would have generated for the community is spent elsewhere.
Has anyone noticed this or am I just crazy?
