Supply chain malarkey

Bought a new phone and of course it is just a different enough size that I need a new tough guy carry case. Bought the phone online from AT&T and got it same day to my house so they have that going for them

But for the case they had one option that was out of stock. Went to Amazon which has multiple choices including the one I want in stock. BOOM order placed. Half the price quoted on AT&T

My erstwhile partner needed a timing band for his big computer saw machine. Went to the local supplier who said it was 300 bucks and out of stock. Partner calls the manufacturer and they say we have it in stock and can ship it but its a 50 dollar minimum order so maybe get two

How much does it cost?

22 bucks

C'mon man

I have no point other than we need to clean some things up out there

    Have a big order of plastics from a mfg in China that is completely hung up. Can’t get trucks to go pick it up and bring it to one of the worlds biggest ports at Ningbo. Rumors of hard Covid lockdowns. There’s other rumors about Marburg or something really bad over there too. US suppliers don’t exist in a fast or economical sense, all the raw materials are in China.

    We need to stop doing business there, choke them off. Go get the raw materials from Alaska and end these fuckers without firing a shot.

    Marburg? Fuck me

    There's a hemorrhage virus spreading across China but the CCP won't acknowledge it. The three biggest ports in China have been shut down. We are going to have massive shortages here soon. The media will be forced to report on it soon.

    This is a legit reason why you don’t shut down the country for the flu. Now when the actual scary one shows up no one will believe the government anymore.

    Alaska, Nevada, North Dakota and Wyoming could fuck the fuck out of China.

    Permanently.

    Can't wait for the Olympics

    Least amount of build up ever

    Hard to lock down and mandate your population and then send a team to the land of the China virus

    Because the Olympics are coming, it must be serious for the chicoms to lock it down. Who knows what it is because the chicoms lie and so does our government bureaucracies. Leftards lie and love to be lied to. I don't. Leave it to Fow Chee and the chicoms to have been weaponizing ebola or small pox.

    Thankfully, Marburg is tough to spread.

    Cho Bai Den kicked the supply chain to the states.

    Jay Chinslee has successfully bogged down food supplies to E. WA and N. Idaho by firing DOT snow plow drivers who sit alone in their cabs for hours.

    One life was saved. Somewhere. For sure.
    Everything on the shelves is empty in the frozen area's it's damn annoying

    Bread is gutted virtually every day. Coffee has been hit and miss. Peanut butter is constantly out of stock.

    Here is a supply chain fix from the Cho Bai Den administration - stop interstate trucking with a vaccine mandate. So, no vaccine mandate for illegal aliens but truckers yes. So, a trucker spends almost all his time in his truck and thus is infecting who? He gets out his truck at a rest stop and goes to the bathroom and grab a bite to eat. No one is wearing there masks in a bathroom or while eating. But if you are a trucker, your dangerous. Geezus.

    The cross border vaccine mandate for truckers in/out of Canada is now in effect. The U.S. vaccine mandate takes effect on January 22nd.

    Not to mention the increase in fuel costs, and some states like California and soon to be Oregon, starting talks of banning the sale of diesel within state lines, should help as well.
