And it didn't seem to affect the supply chain before now either. This whole downturn is engineered.
That one guy reporting from India said that the government is actively destroying the food supply. If you recall in the early days of CÖVÌD, they were destroying crops and lifestock.
I don't disagree with you that this present situation is engineered. But this particular aspect of it has been a long term problem. I talk regularly with people that own/manage construction and trucking companies and what I have written above is what they tell me.
A big part of the reason that it has not been so noticeable is that the older drivers have stayed working, often into their late 70's.
The crux of the problem is that the "Boomers" and the following generations, didn't/don't have many children. Between contraception and abortion we are missing many millions of people that would have done these jobs.
This is a situation, decades in the making, which we are starting to reap the fruits of.
