China Hoards Over Half The World's Grain Supplies

Zero Hedge: China Panic-Hoards Half Of World's Grain Supply Amid Threats Of Collapse 

About two and a half years ago, we told readers China was panic hoarding food, which was several months before the virus pandemic began to spread worldwide; Beijing has managed to stockpile more than half of the world's maize and other grains that have resulted in rapid food inflation and triggered famine in some countries. 

In August 2019, we asked the question: 

 Does China believe that we are on the verge of a major global crisis? The communist Chinese government has always been very big into planning, and it appears that they have decided that now is the time to hoard food, gold and other commodities. 

Fast forward today, the answer is most likely "yes." China maintains "historically high levels" of beans and grains stockpiled at COFCO Group's (a major Chinese state-owned food processor) 310 storage facilities in the northeastern part of the country, according to Nikkei Asia.

If or when China attacks Taiwan, the US and others might stop food shipments to China. Maybe the food bank gives China to alter its own production, alter its supply chain or allow the US (or Argentina, Brazil & others) to come to terms with the takeover of Taiwan and resume grain shipments.

Chip production would have to increase outside of China. Would it happen in the US and whatever will be done about environmentalists? Or will it be offshored to a poor nation?

Of course Uighurs in custody would get full rations.

Ominous signs. Is covid an escapee hybrid virus or is it a released bio weapon? Given that the CCP & Soviet CP had killing millions of their own peoples including inducing famines, I wouldn't be surprised if the Covid release was a deliberate act of war. Keep ducking 🙉

We'll Have a Red Christmas with China

According to the article, the United states has been at war with the CCP for 93 years. So what is a little virus? In Mansfield Ohio in a half hour, there were 8 overdoses on a day in 2016. Just north of city center the rundown, two story frame houses were used as private bars. You could see 2 or 3 from the same vantage point as you drove through. Rustbelt.

Mansfield as part of the Rustbelt is not the only factor. China pushing cheap drugs is also.

The problem is that least 1 or 2 American generals knew exactly what was going on and either they did not tell the Pentagon or DC or they were not listened to.

After reading the essay, my opinion started Kissinger is potentially undergoing the Bill Gates metamorphoses. I used to believe the urban legend about Gates 2 decades ago that he was a genius. Perhaps Kissinger is no better than Albright. Perhaps he is just a better salesman.

Maybe they realize the global supply chain is in worse shape than commonly thought? Or, maybe they plan to make sure of it?
