This isn't Economic war on china's part. Their economy is cratering just like ours. People have absolutely no idea that every country is perilously close to that razor's edge. The entire system is about to go off a cliff.
China is panicking just like we are because they have no fuel for their power plants, which means no power to their factories.
This is going to get very bad. The global supply chain going up in smoke will have ramifications not seen in the modern world. We have no comparable moment in history. The Great Depression does not compare because supply wasn't the problem.

so what happens first....peak oil or peak lithium/magnesium? Sounds like a fun little problem that could make COVID look like child's playnortex97 said:China also owns the global lithium and cobalt supply too (via both the mines and more significantly the refining processors.) This isn't their only ace in the hole, in other words. They are going to twist the knife in 2021 hoping to create a cascade of events that…keeps Dems in power in the US.Aggie95 said:
I can see a way out of chip problem...make more here but that will take 3 to 5 years.
But....how do we fix the magnesium issue? If the natural resource supply is in China there's not an easy fix.
This this this.. What did Jen say? "It was selfish to have businesses pass on the increasing costs to the consumer!"PneumAg said:Ag In Ok said:

I disagree. They are complicit in it. The fascists on the left want to limit the ability of the general population to move around freely. What better way to do that than by coordinating with China to choke off the supply of new vehicles and make buying them cost-prohibitive for most people? It will only take a few years before half of the population can't find a working car. I think one of their next steps will be to take drastic measures domestically to destroy the oil and gas industry and cut off the supply of gasoline. This is in tandem with leftist private equity groups buying up residential homes and undeveloped real property everywhere, causing an explosion of home prices and decreasing the supply of homes available for people to actually purchase and own. These people puppet-mastering Biden ultimately want everybody herded into the cities, living in government-funded housing, and relegated to government-controlled public transportation.

I've had 4 random offers on my 2002 vehicle in gas stations while filling up in the last month. That's never happened to me personally before. It's kind of crazy. None have been high enough for me, but the last one was pretty close.
I just need it to be high enough to feel like its worth the hassle of being the guy walking around offering people money for their vehicles
Wow. I have a '94 Acura Legend GS that has some issues that I need to sell.Carlo4 said:
Still can't believe I got $6000 for a car with 155,000 miles, broken locks, hail damage, no AC, cracked leather seats, front bumper and reinforcement heavy damage, paint chipping away horribly.
Maybe I should have held out...

I'm a distributor for a major manufacturer and was on a call with their supply chain manager 2 months ago and he told us 2023 at the earliest. So it'll be a while. Been affecting me for a year, just now hitting the rest of economy.

2020 only emboldened these people. They will absolutely cheat in a way that cannot be overcome. It happens in countries around the world every year.

Dead wrong
This is all by design to delete the working middle class

There's going to be no denying the cheating if Republicans don't win big in 2022 and 2024 based on this cluster F of an administration so far.
Yep. The fraud was successful in 2020 and everybody knows it occurred and that it was accomplished and obfuscated/covered-up "by whatever means necessary."PneumAg said:XXXVII said:PneumAg said:

Ok, I agree. But why does that matter? Who is going to do anything about it? The courts are never going to touch an election, even if the proof is undeniable. The FBI is the democrat enforcement arm. The military brass are neo-marxists. Citizens who take up arms will be violently suppressed and jailed as terrorists.
They will cheat. Nothing will happen.
West coast states banned coal exports from their ports (unconstitutional btw.) Not just a supply issue in china though, also a demand side issue with a grid that cannot keep up with development and population growth.n_touch said:BAP Enthusiast said:

Why is this a problem all of a sudden or was this building for a few years? How were they getting fuel before now?

We can go back to 1800s technology and standards. The human race don't need computers.

I don't think Biden and whoever controls him are going to war over this. His transportation sec has been home for 3 months cuddling with his husband while product sits in the pacific ocean.
It's like the border. It's intentional. It's wide open and they are transporting illegals all over the country.

We won't start the war but we'll definitely join in. Wars are fought over religion and resources and as resources become scarce we're all going to have to be willing to fight for what we need.

Honestly though, whose side would we be on? The current admin is deep in bed with China.
