If there is a large war prices for both of those things are going up. (Hell, there's only a small war going on right now and prices have gone up noticeably). The international going rate for a barrel of oil or a bushel of corn are going to skyrocket.

You are a US based oil refinery or farmer. You are going to sell your product to domestic buyers only when you could sell it for 1.5-2 times as much to an international buyer?

Of course not. You're going to sell it for the going rate, and so will everybody else, and Americans will end up paying the same inflated price for things as everybody else, including the countries involved in the war. You think the economy is bad under Biden? You've never seen an American economy like what it would be if a large world war was going on.

Please stop listening to Huckster Carlson. What happens around the world does affect America and American citizens, even if it doesn't happen inside the state lines of Texas or North Carolina or California.

Populists need to let actual grown-ups worry about our foreign policy.
