The Atlantic is blaming the supply chain problems on Americans buying things they don’t need. They’re telling people to stop shopping. They’re also implying that the crisis is only impacting things that people could live without which is totally false.
Supply-chain problems could be solved more quickly if affluent Americans would stop buying up things they don’t need and often don’t even really want, writes @amandamull: https://t.co/J9BLBuLjGJ

The author of the article admits that she is trying to misdirect blame for the problems on to preppers.
America doesn't have a goods shortage. Affluent Americans have a voracious shopping problem, gobbling up goods and resources far beyond their own need and at a pandemic-accelerated rate the supply chain can't currently handle. We should call it that. https://t.co/0cyQgnm8yL

Seriously, what the hell does this dumb millennial skank know about the supply chain? Based on her article, she obviously knows nothing about supply chain logistics. But that’s precisely why she is a writer for The Atlantic writing these stupid propaganda pieces.
I agree with this guy’s take.
I love it when people who know absolutely nothing about supply chain logistics and managing variability write articles telling us how to fix it. Actually takes a lot of arrogance.

It’s only a matter of time before they start falsely blaming people who prepared for the crisis for all the issues we are seeing. It will be no different than how they are blaming the unvaxxed for the continued virus hoax measures and the death vaxx not working.
Of course, the supply chain crisis would have never happened if the government didn’t lockdown the country for over a year because of a fake pandemic. They are causing further problems with mask mandates and forced-vaxxing which has limited the required labor needed to support the supply chain.
You also have the fact that much of our entire manufacturing base was relocated to foreign countries, namely China. So all sorts of things people need, has to be shipped across the Pacific Ocean. If the government implemented policies to encourage manufacturing here in the United States, things wouldn’t be as bad as they currently are.
Telling people to stop buying things is the height of absurdity. This isn’t about people buying treadmills as Jen Psaki claims.

Basic necessities are becoming more expensive and more difficult to come by. Shortages of critical parts for cars and other vehicles are becoming increasingly apparent. Grocery store shelves are becoming emptier. The entire situation is a disaster and there’s going to be untold problems because of it.
When I say that there will be people who starve to death because of this economic collapse that is happening, I am not exaggerating. There is nothing cute or funny about any of this.
