I would be genuinely interested in getting an explanation for how this one is on the Biden admin. Logistics are absolutely fricked across the entire world, from manufacturing to shipping, from raw materials to SOCs. Plenty of shite to blame Biden for these days, but this one just doesn't seem reasonable or logical in any way. But if I'm missing something, someone let me know
1. COVID overreaction and shutdowns were driven by the democrats and media in order to defeat Trump/ get Biden in. Both indirectly, to make voters miserable so they would want change, and directly, so that Biden didn't have to campaign in public. When you have a just-in-time economy and you just shut it down with no plan to start it back up again, that is your first terrible error. If it hadn't been shut down in the first place, then we wouldn't be in this fricked situation.
2. Printing and doling out "stimulus" money that has suppressed the labor market, while also continually extending unemployment benefits. Normally, people would need to get back to work. Now, not so much. Without employees, the supply chain is breaking down further.
3. Vaccine mandates. Instead of making rebooting the economy priority #1, the administration has chosen to push vaccine absolutism. This has even gone so far as to deny that people who've had COVID possess effective natural immunity. But, more importantly, they've gone down the path of using soft persuasion, and now hard mandates, to force the vaccine on people who don't want it on pain of losing their jobs. This has led to departures and firings that are further crippling the supply chain when it is already struggling to recover.
Those are the 3 most important ones. You could add a 4th, which is that the President is obviously addled and incapable of comprehending the situation, much less leading us out of it, while the people running him seem to actively want to destroy the economy/ middle class so they can reconstruct society. So, there's a genuine explanation.
