[QUOTE="jbs2014, post: 2486820, member: 94052"] I remember seeing on television that when Egypt went from an oil exporter to an oil importer a few years back that that event contributed to the Arab Winter. There was also a peer reviewed journal article around the same time that said the same. Increased energy prices effected food costs. If the incompetence of Brandon and his band of idiots keeps on going as it has I think a similar thing could happen here. Maybe we can get Canada to increase agricultural output and maybe we can do the same. However with Brandon’s fertilizer sanctions on us, oops I mean Putin, that is going to be problematic as well. Last I heard we get 11% of our fertilizer components from Russia. Without increasing energy production costs are still going to be high. This is why this “Green New Deal” MUST be abandoned immediately in favor of a return to a sound fossil fuel based energy system, for at least the near to mid term. This can’t go on at this rate much longer or “A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny” will be on our doorsteps. [/QUOTE]
