Doubtful “food riots” will be spurred on by increased prices at the super market. There is no eveidence we are anywhere near running out of food.
These illegal “teacher union” strikes are a manufacturered situation by sorass through his boy nobama. If these start happening all over, it will also be hardly spontaenous.
The unions are and have long been in the graft bed with the dems. These illegal union strikes will not go down well with an increasingly conservative America and will end badly for unions in general.
What we are seeing is a desparate move by dems because they have lost power and are rapidly loosing their voter majority.
Any State that allows a public services union to go on an illegal strike and does not fire any and all participants, then deserves being pushed around by thugs. Let em try this crap in Texas!
At best, and under normal circumstances, most markets have a 72 hour stock. Introduce a wee bit of panic, and that drops to an hour or less. If there are no deliveries, you have effectively run out of food.
No, but we are running out of money to give to deadbeats to buy food (& pay rent, buy gas, buy weed, etc.)
It would be interesting for one state to simply end all their welfare programs and see what happens. Of course most of the states that would consider doing this have small welfare rolls, probably including the few legitimate clients, such as the mentally retarded.
In Oregon pretty much an minority youth (which appears to go until at least age 35) can get free money by signing up to go to community college. This is typically combined with rent subsidized housing to provide a decent no-work welfare lifestyle. The required case load is so low that a two year associates degree can be dragged out for five or six with the state paying everything for these "disadvantaged" people essentially endlessly.
