America is running out of everything because Americans are buying so much stuff

This is the new bullshite they are selling

Americans are buying everything they can get their hands on, and they'd be buying even more if it weren't for those pesky supply-chain snarls, the National Retail Federation said.
"Spending might have been higher if not for shortages of items consumers are eager to purchase," Jack Kleinhenz, the NRF's chief economist, said in a statement issued on Friday.
Those shortages seem so ubiquitous that the term "everything shortage" is now being used liberally to describe consumers' frustration as they try to get goods of all sorts: paper towels, milk, toys, and more.
Yet claims that the country is running short on everything miss a key point. America has, in fact, imported an immense amount of stuff in the past eight months. And that's part of the reason we're in the midst of an epic supply-chain congestion.

I don’t think Americans are buying more perishable goods than they were before.

This is true, and Americans would buy more if Biden hadn’t wrecked the economy.

That’s because everyone was locked up and collecting Biden Bucks, and now they are out to spend that cash!

I heard some dipsh*t on Fox News spew this same crap earlier. These people obviously don't know what the average American is financially going through right now. These $200/week grocery shopping trips are killing me. I don't have any extra money for anything these days.

Only a year? We have components with a 78 week lead time for our products. We have the potential to have production shut down for a year for some product lines.

I consumed more in 2018 when my money was worth more and stuff was cheap

Biden’s press conferences are invite only and scripted questions because so many people want to go and no one knows what to ask!!
