In the meantime, it behooves the rest of us to be ready with enough food and supplies to get through this.
One does not need to be a hard core prepper, but buying a little bit extra each time you shop will gradually build a comfortable cushion against supply chain issues that we are already seeing anyways.
If rigs are shut down for a couple weeks things could get really ugly in some places (read cities) very quickly.
I honestly believe that it is going to take a shutdown and the ugliness that will result in the urban areas.
Two weeks of pain, or the rest of your life (and your children’s lives) in servitude and pain.
We have an extra 17 dozen eggs in the frig if anyone is hungry come on over.
I have been doing just that and also laying in extras of vitamins and supplements, OTC meds as well as cat food and litter.
Under normal conditions most stores only have 3 days of stock.
Think about that, cute the supply and in less than 3 days no food.
Prepare accordingly.
Its too late once it starts.
