Maybe if we didn’t get all our crap from overseas and started making it back home in the USA, we wouldn’t have supply shortages; just saying🤷🏻♂️
Perhaps this is the lesson the white hats want us to learn.
EXACTLY. Maybe not so much a lesson but an extreme example of why we should not rely on shit coming from over seas.
They are looking for Club K missile containers sent over by China to perform a decapitation strike from within our own borders.
I'm so glad to see someone else who is keeping up! There's so much hidden that would make normies heads explode. Love ya pede.
We store our plumbing supplies in a couple storage containers. The local police came to check them out a couple months ago. To make sure we weren't running a meth lab was their excuse. I call bs. In a residential neighborhood?
Please esplain
Hey, club k likely on shore already. This system has been around for a long time.
So we get two birds with one stone?
Well looking at the bigger picture, I save more money making food at my house then going out and buying a meal at a restaurant. If the supply chain learned to eat at home then maybe more people could order food at home.
Two fold. Eventually small machine shops will start making parts, mom n pop manufacturers will start making everyday wares just to fill the void. In the mean time retailers will have money in limbo and be unable to stock the shelves. Once the products are allowed to pour in there will be a glut if priduct, margins will fall off, follow-up orders will be slow. Just in time delivery systems with new shiny disposable crap may finally be replaced with durable quality goods. That will be the day we all really win.
Damn good lesson. Except even domestic products are even more expensive lol.
Ask yourself this question: why are domestic products more expensive? Would they be more expensive if businesses acted ethically, and not acting the way the big mega-corporations are today?
If you didn't have multi-millionaire and billionaire owners and corporate heads, goods would probably be a lot cheaper.
Sounds an awful lot like a Bernie Bro talking point.
Tons of small and medium businesses act ethically and barely break even, yet still have a higher production cost than China.
Try looking at government regulations that overreach and a ridiculous tax structure that nickel and dimes every step of trying to run a business.
Oh, I agree. I strictly buy American
Perhaps our MIL is searching them or playing the waiting game to fry rats
We would still need some raw materials from over seas. You aren’t wrong though. We have a shit load of resources here.
Not saying this is an excuse, its just a reason: Production costs in the US are much higher due to having to employ Americans. Cheap shit is made by cheap labor in 3rd world countries including China. Yes, China is third world if they pay people slave wages. I don't care if they're a superpower.
While I agree with the economics, I’m willing to pay more for made in the USA products. Have you tried to order anything on Amazon that’s “Made in the USA”? It’s almost impossible. I paid $115 for a wall clock made in the USA as opposed to paying between $15-$25 for a wall clock made in Chy-na.
