They Can Print Money, But They Can’t Print Food

By Leave a Comment

(Michael Snyder) Whenever there is some sort of a major crisis, our politicians normally attempt to solve it by spending money.  But in this case, that isn’t going to work.  Our leaders can try to throw billions or even trillions of dollars at the global food crisis, and they may even convince themselves that they are making a difference.  However, the truth is that they simply cannot create food out of thin air.  As I discussed last week, we are facing a worldwide nightmare of epic proportions.  Fertilizer prices have spiked to absurd levels, extremely bizarre weather patterns are playing havoc with crop production all over the planet, and the war in Ukraine has caused a growing supply crunch that will not be resolved any time soon.  There simply is no “magic wand” that our politicians can wave that will make this problem go away.

(Ben Bailey) In the aftermath of the horrific mass shooting at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York that left 10 people dead, many corporate media outlets are focusing solely the shooter’s intentions. The shooter’s intentions were laid out clearly in a 180-page manifesto, where he ranted about numerous topics and described himself as “mild-moderate authoritarian left.” A particularly incendiary opinion piece titled “The Buffalo Shooter Isn’t a ‘Lone Wolf’, He’s a Mainstream Republican” was published by Rolling Stone. The title pulls no punches, as it accuses a large section of the country of sympathizing with the mass-murderer.

(Aaron Kliegman) President Biden’s new White House press secretary has a history of promoting conspiracy theories about elections, pushing to overturn Donald Trump’s victory in 2016, and freely labeling opponents — and the United States itself — as racist.
