Potash is a key ingredient in fertilizer. The US imports 93% of our potash. About 40% of the world’s fertilizer comes from Russia and Belarus. The same globalists who thought it was okay to rely on foreign potash decided to punish Russia by stopping imports from them.
The typical modern car has over 100 microchips. Taiwan accounts for 92% of the world’s most advanced semiconductors. For the last 2 years, the world has faced a car shortage as it scrambled to meet its microchip needs. Meanwhile, China continues to build its South China Sea navy and threaten to take over Taiwan.
The US continues to have a baby formula shortage. The FDA shut down the largest manufacturer of baby formula for months while it investigated unfounded suspicions that its formula was infected . At the same time, regulations prohibit importing of formula from other countries.
The administration is openly trying to rapidly transition the US from energy from fossil fuels to renewable sources. This, despite the fact that renewables currently provide a tiny fraction of our energy needs and it will take decades, if ever, for renewables to meet the majority of our energy needs.
The common thread in all of this is the involvement of “experts” from the federal government in implementing their wise policies.
