Trucker strike over the forced 'clot-shot'

No link but reading about a threatened strike by the truckers of our nation all over the web if the goobermint starts mandating clot-shots.
We are already seeing large segments of the transportation system threatening 'sick-outs', as well as police and other responders.
If there is a trucker strike, the implications will be huge.
You think there are shortages now, wait until the truckers stage a nationwide strike, even for a few days.
The Kens and Karen's will not get their latte's and will not be able to fill up their huge SUVs.
They can shut down this nation within a week.
My suggestion is to prepare accordingly.
Keep lots of food, water and toilet paper in reserve.
Get one of those counter-top water filters like a Big Berkey or Daulton Water system.
MREs and Mountain House freeze dried food are good for a temporary fix but you will need good nutritious food to sustain your family and you.
Remember the 'big three' for food: carbs, proteins and fats.
Canned foods will last a long time. I personally like Dinty Moore soups, corned beef has has lots of what you need, tuna, sardines, canned chili, beans. coffee, tea...
Get a few bags hard candy as well. Nothing like a sweet lil snack to boost morale for your family and you.
Get a couple of good Coleman Stoves and small bottles of gas for them.
Keep a lot of small bills of cash on hand. Ones, fives, tens, and twenty's and lots of loss change.
Keep your fuel tanks in your vehicles topped-off. And get several gas containers & keep them nearby.
Protection, which just about everyone knows. Just know this, if you do have to use deadly force to protect your family and/or your self, be ready to lawyer-up and keep your mouth shut until you get legal advice from a pro-second amendment lawyer.
Above all else, keep the 'gray man' concept in use at all times. Don't get on fake-book, twatter, Instagram, tic-tok...talking about your preparedness.
Don't even go yapping to your neighbors, friends, and even relatives. Loose lips sink ships.
Watch for that stranger who happens to show up, and talks like you and talks a big game. There are too many spooks out there.
Keep prayed up, have faith, try to keep a good mental attitude and you will be miles ahead of the sheeple.

When is this shite going down

This will be the 3rd or 4th supposed trucker strike. The others didn't happen either. Put me in the "I'll believe it when I see it" crowd. That being said, I hope it does happen. We need big things to happen.

If it ever happens y’all better not be in the cities. It will be mass chaos. Shelves are already depleted. One more hick up in the supply chain and people will desperate.

Yea, use the dem playbook. Cause absolute chaos to oust the president

Won’t happen. Most mega carrier truck drivers live paycheck to paycheck, while having huge lease payments on their trucks.
Mega carriers control the market. Not enough owner operators out their to make a difference.
shite..the mega carriers would love this. They would gobble up some more of the market with cheap freight

While a trucker strike would be crippling the chances those cowboys all band together to do it are very, very low.
I have a slightly lower chance of starting at QB for LSU against ‘bama low.

Get an adapter hose kit that lets you run your stove off the bigger propane tanks that most home grills use.
Coffee filters can be used in a lot of different ways.
Bonus tip: Have your kids change costumes on Halloween multiple times so they can gather as much candy as possible in the neighborhood. Tell them their lives depend on it.

this is why they are forcing the maindate imo

Sad to say, but that’s the point it’s got to get to before things get better

Not gonna happen. Trucking companies hire more foreigners from the middle east than Americans nowadays. You actually think they're gonna go on strike?

IDK.
There have been a few threats of trucker strikes this year that have not materialized.
But they are catching the attention of many.
I would love to see the reaction of Gomer Pyle, aka mayor pete, about this.

True dat. Not arguing that point. Its hard to find competent folks who want to drive an 18 wheeler. Heck many can't even pass a simple drug test.
But there does not have to be a 100% participation rate.
A 10-15% rate could send shock waves over the nation. Just a few trucks on key road ways would wreak havoc.

I like your list. I put one together in a previous post as well for anyone interested. I enjoy reading how others "prepare" because there is almost always something that someone else suggests that I never thought of.

They can't find drivers now, if several thousand park their trucks were in some real deep shite.

It won’t happen, but all you would need is a very small percentage of owner operators slow-rolling the interstates in large metro areas to raise awareness.

This sorta true, but in the short term it will still shut down the movement of goods.
