The "lumber shortage" is another DS economic false flag targeting the resources the environmentalists want us to stop using. Meat, oil, lumber, etc.
It's also designed to affect building costs and thus enable the government to swoop in with an "affordable housing" "solution".
What's that? You can't afford a home? Well here are some subsidized units we built! You can thank us, Daddy Government, for all our altruistic solutions! We are here to help...
CA is discussing re-zoning and converting malls that shut down due to COVID into high density housing.
Problem-reaction-solution.
yep, new name for ghetto.
Welcome to the High Density Housing Mall of the Future, I mean welcome to the hotel California.... It's a lovely place
This was one of the main reasons for shutting malls down in the first place. Make them all fail and then repurpose the land. You can transition to a modern economy for as cheap as possible and no hassle with dealing with all the individual stores and their leases and rights
It’s the same as any war. Destroy as cheaply as possible and rebuild with modern infrastructure. Before the wars, Germany and Japan had medieval infrastructure that couldn’t support modern traffic demands and upgrading all the plumbing and electricity was impossible. So what do you do? You make up a reason to level it all and then build your super modern societies over the remains. Same thing they’re doing in Syria right now, with a civil war that’s been going on for 15 years against imaginary enemies.
This should absolutely be the case, and I support this as a developer/architect
Malls are not efficient use of real estate, and high-density housing can still support ground level retail and F&B without wasting the majority of land on brick and mortar for big businesses that are already transitioning mainly to direct-to-consumer and ecommerce
Outdoor malls are a different case, such as the Irvine Spectrum, Grove, Promenade, etcetera-- mainly because that is a completely different class of real estate compared to the malls that are failing.
We don't need millions of square feet of indoor shopping that is only activated until 8-10pm when it can be developed into apartment/condominiums with retail and restaurants on the bottom level. When you do that, you accommodate a better use of the land by increasing the inventory of housing in California (which is largely short of what is needed) but you also create a safer area due to the foot/vehicle traffic occurring at all hours. Additionally, housing supports brick and mortar, grocers and small businesses a lot more than destination travelers/shoppers.
Also, when prices go up, sales tax goes up.
So what States like Calif and NY take in increases.
They stop before it causes a reduction in demand.
I think reported shortages are also a good way of shifting old stock to make way for new: olive oil and other foodstuffs. Steering the sheep, controlling and fleecing.
Coin shortage?
That is/was retarded
That's why I carry 3 Quarters, 1 dime, 2 nickels, and 4 pennies when I plan to make a purchase.
One bourbon, one scotch and one beer.
High roller
They were definatley skimming as much pre 1964 silvers and dimes as they could lol
Yeah they're trying this again. The fed is limiting the amount of change banks can order again
Not only that. Copper. steel, and plastics.
May or may not be involved with the local banks where I live.
There is a major coin shortage, there's only going to be a certain amount of coins rationed off until more arrive
It seems meet oil and lumber have all been hit at the same time. Imagine that.
