Only about 15% of American food is imported. If there’s a food shortage, it’s 100% the governments doing.

I just picked up $50 in canned food. It’s a start.

we still have those cheese caves right? and that government program that pays farmers to not grow crops to stabilize prices?

It’s laughable that there could ever be an unintentional food shortage in this land. You can drive 12+ hours through pure farmland.

It’s more important now than ever to make sure you have the capability to provide food for yourself in the event shit hits the fan. I feel really bad for people who live in large urban areas.

The same i think can be said about fuel. Yeah?

Farming family has seen costs of damn near everything go through the roof.

The Biden administration will pay farmers more money not to farm

The goal is to add 4 million acres of farmland to the Conservation Reserve Program, which takes land out of production to blunt agriculture’s environmental impact.

A WHOLE LOT of ingredients for processed food and packaging (and the things required to make it) ARE imported. Much higher than 15%. Yes it's the government's fault but the fact that we grow a lot here isn't the reason
