A congressional panel is planning an investigative hearing into the worsening shortage of infant formula.

The House Energy and Commerce Committee said Wednesday it will hold a hearing on May 25 to examine the causes of the shortage as well as efforts to increase production and access to safe formula.

In before the “use yer boob” posts.

A hearing in two weeks? And how long will this panel take to decide there is a problem—a month? How many infants will starve in the meantime?

Congresscritter “hearings” are contenders for the most useless events in the multiverse.

They will investigate, but do absolutely nothing.

Such phony parasites. The whole fckn lot.

Bigger boobs would fix the problem - no?

What did parents do before Similac or Gerbers?

In my experience, not as many as they cause.

Is there anything to the rumor that the reason for the shortage is because they have bought up the stocks of Similac to give to ‘migrant mothers’?

[Newbomb Turk]

Abbott Labs has a plant sitting idle because the government won’t approve it so it can re-open.

But it’s not really about that. At least not to me. It’s about the utter collapse of our supply chain. This is, what we called in the Navy, UNSAT. Of course as humans we can adapt. Soviet kids adapted when the commies destroyed THEIR supply chain and their shelves were empty. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be raising hell about this.

This is awful. This is BS. Socialism sucks.

Democrats suck.

Democrats suck.

Synonymous. And Amen!

Obviously the fault of the evil big-baby formula cartel.

Minorities hardest hit.
