All my markets are fully stocked. PNW doesn’t seem to have any shortages.

Where I am in the PNW, there's hardly any food and 3+ hour lines just to get in stores to pick over what little is available.

I think it's finally time for the federal govt to nationalize the supply chain industry.

We need to fix competition. Winner take all is horrible for markets.

It’s not about competition per se. It’s about using public policy and economic incentives to prioritize supply chain resiliency and distributed production over maximum efficiency.

Intentionally, to create famine, to aid the move to the new communist-totalitarian regime.
