FNF: Big Gov Food Control vs. Human Logistics - Will We All Starve In The End?

Recently, i read a few articles about truckers protesting in the Midwest, Cali, and other big "trucker ports."  Truckers park at the pump, refuse to move, and/or the company they work for refusing to support the trucking. 

So this Friday Night Fight Blog Post, im gonna ramble on about the trucker strikes vs the larger agenda.  Disclaimer is this might come off a bit conspiracy theorist and condescending.

Here's one of many links.  I encourage you to Google more:  Trucker's Haven

-------------------------------------------------------

Logistics is one of the main arteries of anything, second to the backbone of communication.  Grounds shipping has been more effective weight-to-distance-to-fuel consumption than most other ways, like flying.  This is why overnight air costs far more than standard ground when you ship something via FedEx.

There's a big agenda push by the Feds, POTUS, and the corporate backers behind said government to stop using fossil fuels, lower our carbon footprint, etc. yada yada.  Big push for electric vehicles.  You got to look past the "save the planet" agenda pushed since the 80s and ask why the big push.

I promise you this will make sense in a minute.

------------------------------------------------------

My first observation why the most, if not all, the worlds supplier for EV batteries come from Russia and East Europe, which has been in conflict.  Russia, which has had Democrat Politicians in bed with them for decades.  That Russia.  We "sanction" them (just so we can line our pockets with their money) and then buy their Nickle and Lead to make EV batteries.  

I guess sanctions are like everything else in America - hypocritically ignored only once those imposing it have a clear advantage over it.

-------------------------------------------------------

Secondly is the baby formula situation combined with the burning of the food processing plants the last six months.  So, if you have been living under a rock (namely called Mainstream Media which did very little reporting on the food plants burning down btw), there's a food shortage.  Now there is a baby formula shortage.  

Oh wait, the POTUS and the Big Gov will "fly in formula from other countries so that we can feed our babies formula"

Wait.  How is, a company that's home in America, which should have product in America NOT have product in America but has 39 tons of product in other countries.   Fly In Formula Story Here

Other countries that have been deemed "not safe for human consumption" by the FDA and USDA because of their food practices.  Rules that apply in America don't apply in other countries for food manufacturing.  That's why these companies manufacture in these other countries.  

On top of that, the Feds shut down one of the largest baby food companies (most likely a competitor to their Gerber stocks I would imagine - I'm NOT doing that homework), only to reopen it.   FDA Reopens Abbott Baby Food Plants

-----------------------------------------------------------

Now let's move onto the WIC program and the math behind that.  The government, in a broad stroke of the term, buys formula and other food from the companies.  We, the parents of infants and young children, are simply the middle media to process the transaction.  Follow this math:

1.  You get the WIC check, which is a promissory note, no different than a dollar bill in the eyes of the store and the bank.  In essesnce, you the possessor of the check, are a middle man.

2.  You go to the store and spend that $300 WIC check.  

3.  Follow this logistical roundabout - store bought food from manufacturer; you buy food with WIC check; store cashes WIC check; store uses new revenue from WIC check to buy more food from manufacturer, and the roundabout continues.

4.  You consume food, need more food, do the WIC check again.  Refer back to step 1.

THIS SURE SOUNDS LIKE RATION CARDS AND DEVELOPING GOVERNMENT DEPENDENCY TO ME!

On top of that, if the Big Gov was not "in bed" with the control of food manufacturing for the masses, this wouldn't be a problem to me.  But there in lies the problem.  THEY ARE. 

Now, not to say I wasn't or haven't been on the WIC program with my first child, however it was thrusted upon me with my second and third child.  I do recall a conversation involving a sly comment about "denying my kids food" during one of these conversations.  

Is WIC a helpful program?  Yes.  

Does it provide food for needy families?  Yes.  

Does it promote laziness and feed the "welfare/gov takes care of me" mentality?  Yes.  

Should it be overhauled and the root cause of the "food-money laundering" be stopped?  YES.

----------------------------------------------------------

I live in a remote area, semi-rural, but still relatively "urban" in an odd sense.  Logistics is logistics.  90% of anything comes via trucks.  So to see the food shortage flow from the lower 48 to Alaska is a nightmare come true.  It's horrible.

Now that all of that has been laid out bare, allow me to rant about the logistical nightmare.  Fuel control.  Resource control.  Stack on the high cost of gas and now trucks aren't moving.  Even if the truck drivers wanted to drive their trucks, they couldn't.  NO FUEL.  But why is there no fuel?  

Following the "path of fuel" is not a hard concept and used to be taught is Social Studies and Science classes in my younger years... but lets not go to what is taught now.  The point I'm making:

1. Crude (Oil) comes out of the ground

2. Crude is shipped to the Fuel Processing Plant (either by TRUCK or by SHIP)

3. Crude is separated, with Fuel being the main resource collected and the rest of the Crude sent to be processed elsewhere

4. At the other place (again, by TRUCK or by SHIP) the Crude is then processed into over 100+ different products.  What Products Come From Oil?

YO!!!!  THAT'S A LONG LIST OF STUFF!!!

5.  The product is then shipped (again, by TRUCK or by SHIP, this time we add some PLANES) the purchasing company's distribution center.

6.  From the distribution center, (do I need to say it again) to the store.

7.  You and I drive to the store in our CARS AND TRUCKS to buy the item.

Do you see the problem there?  I don't think our POTUS or Feds see the problem, or maybe they do and this is HOW THEY ARE TRYING TO OVERLY CONTROL US.  The problem is, throughout every one of those 7 steps, there is at least ONE MACHINE THAT NEEDS FUEL TO OPERATE.

THE GOV CONTROLS THE OIL PRODUCTION, THUS HOLDS THE ENTIRE LOGISTICS CHAIN OF AMERICA IN A DEATH GRIP UNTIL WE ALL COMPLY WITH THEIR DEMANDS!

-------------------------------------------------------

Oh, but Mr. Jon, we just need to switch to electric vehicles!!!  Wait dumbass.  Do you know where your electricity comes from?  Do you understand the inherent hypocrisy that is mass-produced electric vehicles???  How about the process of how your HOUSE gets power?  How does your phone charge?  Your electric vehicle is going to need the same charge.

I'll leave you all to research where and how electric vehicle batteries come from.  Here is a link to get you started on your WTF homework.  What Are Electric Vehicle Batteries Made Of???

Everyone is soooooooo blindly hyperfocused on "abortion rights" and the inherent color of our skins and all of our ancestors that we can't realize the Big Gov is destroying the American Logistics and making us all slowly dependent on their control.

There i'm done ranting.  This has been an interesting typing of the Friday Night Fights posts that I do.  Next week I think the FNF post will be about something a little more lighthearted.

Thanks for reading.
