US Manufacturing Plant Supply Chain Issues - Coronavirus

I love her

Fabric used to come from mills in Virginia and North Carolina because this is where cotton grows.

We may go a decade without new clothes--who actually cares but shallow people that are only about appearances.

Guess what--they do not matter and can die off and none will miss them. They do not contribute by creating things that are useful to feed, repair, fight, or heal and are literally the definition of a useless eater.

We can deal with no fashion or new clothes for a decade because appearances do not matter.

If 911 occurs in Canada there will be a problem or if a man used a woman's bathroom where I live.

My point was simply that it's a lie that Trump is pro USA and makes your country weaker by being a part of the SWAMP system.

If I say I am making building the Canadian economy by supporting shit made in another country an I not a liar ?


It's simple in 3D reality to me.

4D Trump magic. Grow a brain.

You are wise and prepared.

The millenials that cannot repair a car, sink a well, build a home generator out of an old washing machine tub and motor to power a home, or cover a building with a roof will have no place, and we really won't lose any part of humanity that matters when they suicide behind their loss of social media or their snappy chats.

Maybe they can share photos of themselves starving rather than strutting their Chinese crap fashions they formerly purchased.

Better yet that conceited fashionista with implants and botox can pick up a shovel and start digging a garden or her own grave. Either one will benefit humanity.

Same with tires. There are a lot of tires made in the US (Bridgestone/Firestone makes truck, bus and passenger service radials here) but the actual rubber comes from SE Asia (Vietnam) and the synthetic rubber from USA. So a mixed bag on tires and a few other niche industries.

On the whole I’m in total agreement: we’ve relied on China way too much for way too long.

Short of a Manhattan Project effort, it’d take us a while to come back online fully, and even then we’re still somewhat reliant on foreign export. It wouldn’t be near as much as it is now, but somewhat.

Bring manufacturing back to the States!

I'm glad you realize how long it takes to retool. Tired of ppl actin like you can ship a factory back to USA from China, boom, done.

If you have children, remember that they will be growing out of their clothes (underwear, too), and buy some larger sizes now while you can, especially outdoor wear. Life is going to get much tougher. If you live in snow country, make sure that includes winter boots in ascending sizes. If money is a factor, go to the thrift store. Deseret LDS thrift stores generally have very high quality stuff, if there is one in your area.

If things don't end up being so bad, the clothes can still be used as the kids grow into them.

I went to the dollar store and bought ten of those reader glasses in various strengths. They will be good for barter.

Last run to Costco will be Monday.

As I expected from one of your admitted nationality, you offered nothing of substance to support your protracted opinion. Trump's dedication to our nation is amply proven by what I mentioned earlier and much, much more.

So, I ask you again: what has Trudeau done to match a fraction of what our own leader has accomplished? Justine's fixation on alternative genders alone renders him a global laughing stock who will never generate the respect of President Trump, no matter how many Nehru jackets Trudeau wears as he unwittingly insults hosting cultures.

Incidentally: back in the 60's when STAR TREK was first aired, I actually learned how to play 3-D Chess and I feel comfortable in saying the game would be far beyond your levels of concentration.

Your own "reality" remains just that: your OWN. To all others you merely sound like a fool.

I'd have to see the way you've commented for awhile to know exactly whether your political orientation is the way you say it is. I'm somewhat skeptical because various remarks in your GLP karma page imply you've given a leftwing spin to some of your posts.

But I'll admit some people on occasion have accused me of being a liberal/leftist too.

You may be quasi-rightwing when it comes to certain cultural issues but amore liberal when it comes to certain economic issues.

In today's era, such political schizophrenia isn't worth a damn. That's because liberalism in the category of culture has a way of generally fucking up the category of economics. Or visa versa.

.

China shuts down every year at this time it’s called Chinese New Year anybody that deals with China imports knows this stop your fear monger omg bs this site is as bad msm

It is the Millennium Bug, 20 years late.

But somehow right on time.

Trudeau has done what is expected of him to drive the nation further into debt. Like Trump in the USA. They are the same.

Only Trump is not as gay, but identical.

If Trump or Trudeau cared they would ban GMO, fagottry, controll immigration and not give millions to other nations before their own. Right ?

The reality is that the USA and Canada's executive teams are shit compared to Russia.

Trump is more concerned with Israel and building a temple and those that stroke his ego.

What is he doing about the obvious swamp, the debt, sending troops home ? But Hillary would be better...??? There is not one leader among your political system worthy of voting for, that is the only reason (based on evidence) that Trump gets voted in. But they all are obvious SWAMP.

But Trump is the Chosen One to lead the peop,e to Greenland ?

He isn't even a good troll, only his base lacks the logic to identify this. If any other leader did what Trump does they would call him a retard.

Imagine Putin saying " I am the Chosen one" imagine Putin groping Gulliani dressed in drag like a queer.

Your 3D grandmastery is obvious. Your forefathers laugh at you.


If you are counting on Trump for MAGA how will he do it ?

Give me the plan.

If you are not a raving leftist, northern Idaho is an awesome place to be right about now. For anyone that is feeling trapped in the city, put on your thinking cap and see if there is a way for you to get out of Dodge ASAP, this is not a drill.

I thank God I moved up here 3 years ago. I've made good friendships, learned the local weather, roads and mountains, and added greatly to my preps. Currently planning my garden for maximum output and storage potential.

The weather today was 49°F (we consider that warm) and even if you just showed up in a travel trailer, you would be fine until October. I have a friend from the Bay Area who moved up here with a trailer and parked it in his friends barn. He was fine through the winters, plugged in to the electricity in the barn. Six months later he had a job at the Sheriff's Department.

Having a portable home would allow you to get out quickly, and give you a chance to sort things out, meet like minded people, find some work. Bring your food preps, guns & ammo, any skills you have. It's almost impossible to find rentals up here, as many of the locals are unable to buy due to not being able to save up enough $$ for a down payment to buy.

I used to live in Orange County. If I were still there, I would take out a bank loan and buy this 24 ft. travel trailer for $5,800:

and make payments to the bank for as long as I could. World economy is going to crash anyway. Then I would head north as fast as I could pedal.

People in the large cities are going to wish they had thought through this pandemic scenario all the way to the end.

.

Or perhaps its the obvious zombie Trump trolls hammer me with neg as they are butthurt over the questions they can not answer ?

The problem is not right or left, rather the same people have run the system doing the same things regardless how they identify.

And this last hope in Trump is fake as there is no real substance in the data and the sukers rather than saying this is crazy what the hell is going on...

As you and others clearly illustrate.

Canook deepthink

I don't mind people who are legitimately conservative and are unhappy about other people, including their elected officials, not being rightwing enough. Or being too liberal. But something about people like you comes off as tricky and insincere.

However, if you're truly of the sociopolitical right, then I'll accept your take on matters. But, again, something about your tone and emphasis have a closeted-liberal aspect about them. But maybe I'm wrong.

.

Turn your $$ into food as much as you can; buy tools, antibiotics, medical supplies, colloidal silver generator, Berkey quality water purification, camping gear, canvas, rope, plywood, trash bags, toilet paper, BIC lighters, ferro rods, batteries, water storage containers, vitamins, OTC meds, open pollinated (heirloom) seeds, hit up dollar book store for how-to books and encyclopedia sets and history books, go to AAA and get paper maps. And get the hell out of big cities.

There might have been a bit of a surplus as new years was anticipated but that was weeks ago. In the next two weeks if this is real, it will be confirmed by depleted stock in stores. Going to finish preps next week, as things should start to icrease in price due to the economics of supply/ demand.

Nothing personal and thank you for the conversation, I have to be on guard as there are always shills shitting on me. It's refreshing.

I am not political but old fashioned and simple. I understand that if I do not work while there is light I it will be more difficult in darkness.

I would go back to Russia to a village where life is hard but normal, but soon life will be normal nowhere.

The problem is beyond politics and even Putin who seems normal is a part of the Swamp, I think.

I lived and worked in the USA and love many things about it and like you and most here miss it. As a strong USA is good for the world, even in its differences. There are little things I respect, such as being given a canadian flag from an old timer who understood what it meant, he got it somehow and didn't toss it waiting for years to give it to me the first canuck he met, as I would of done with ol glory If I had one.

Anyway it was good meeting you)

I would that those such as yourself would run for office dem or rep

Most of China Returns To Work As Wuhan’s Home Province Announces Delay Until March

"It’s been a very long Lunar New Year holiday for China, especially for factory workers who can’t work remotely and need to wait on local government regulations. Shanghai Securities News found that provinces such as Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Guangdong — home to a vast number of textile and clothing factories — have the highest return-to-work rate at 60 to 70 percent as of this Tuesday compared to other provinces at 40 percent. Meanwhile, Hubei, the home province of the Covid-19’s epicenter, Wuhan, has issued another delay on the return-to-work date, which is now set for March 10."

There is a tremendous money making opportunity if we could find out what will be in "shortage" and supply it!

All you greedy individuals running companies across this Republic have been selling out your fellow Americans by relying on cheap goods from China. I'm not losing any sleep over this, you all have exactly what's coming to you .

The communist party in China are sending their own people to death just so they can continue their manufacturing machine. The Lord God has caused all this evil virus to fall on themselves because of their godlessness.

what they fail to realize is the greedy CEO's will NOT build factories and pay higher wages. that would cut into their progfits and sales.

let me explain. how long is the MSM saying CHINA is down for? they haven't. they are saying it is fine and CHINA will b up and producing in no time. so the CEO's think if they just wait a few weeks or even a month, everything will b fine. so why would they even try to build factories and pay us higher wages ???

now u might see some factories changed over to produce medical supplies. as some pointed out this will b switched to other countries until they get infected also.

if u are locked up at home how much $$ are u making to spend follishly on their knick nacks? $0. no demand = no need to produce it.

as i have point out before some things are needed. medical supplies and medicine is a small part of it. food is another. PACKAGING for those items is a biggy. nothing is trucked without it being boxed,bottled,shrink wrapped,etc. where is these materials coming from? our recycling ships to China,they recycle the trash,and use it to package new stuff.see a problem? this cahin is broken.
