If they do, it’s because US farmers insist on feeding corn to cows. McDonalds wants low fat beef. This means grass fed. Grass fed beef in the US is almost impossible to find. Usually only in high end stores like Whole Foods. Go figure.

So, I am MORE inclined to eat at McDonalds as a result!

"...The upcoming problem with food isn't production per se, it's transportation...."

I read estimates that when the price of gas gets too high, about $11 a gallon, the entire world economy will implode because it will no longer be feasable to bring goods to market. I think that number is lower. Of course, OPEC manipulates the price and it is in their best interest to keep the world economy functioning, so any epic increase in world oil prices will be due to a large scale disaster or war in the Mid East, or some event that is beyond the control of the heathen OPEC dudes.

"...All US grain is effectively transported on 2 rail lines..."

I did not know this. You just gave the terrorists a heads up, you ass!

They already know. They effectively run the Federal government now, ding-dong.

Unlike the majority of soft and ignorant Americans, the Islamofederalists study their enemy's weaknesses and make logistical plans to leverage them.
