China had almost half of their provinces shut down with limited electricity and that included manufacturing. We have a backlog of cargo ships in multiple ports sitting for days.
From what I've read, there really are no shortages (aside from specifics like chips and such), just shipping and cargo issues mainly. Shortage of longshoremen, truckers, etc.
Store like Costco and Target are renting their own cargo containers and ships to smooth out their supply lines.
About a month ago, China had air cargo, and the 2nd largest ports essentially shut down due to covid illnesses.

But Trumpers could not blame Trump last year. Now they have someone to blame.
There are 500K containers waiting offshore. Xmas is coming. Most retailers rely on the Xmas season to make a profit. Whatever it takes to get these ships unloaded needs to be done. If the feds need to get involved, bring in the National Guard or Navy to get it done. Biden should be focused on that and not pushing bloated spending bills through congress.
Not really true. Trump was the one who wanted to open up the "economy". The Guvnors of each state are responsible for their own states shutdown. As they should be. Local control is best.
I occasionally go to a big grocery store that has more then the one I usually go to has. I want specific things that I can only find there. This week they didn’t have most of it. I also notice things on the shelves are expired. I don’t always check unless it’s meat, packaged vegetables, or something else that doesn’t last long. But like a bag of chips I don’t usually. Then I purchase one that had already expired. I’m now checking everything.

LOL... Limited energy... Ya right. They are yankin our chains. Probably trying to turn the USA into the next Venezuela with loads of hyperinflation. That's what happens when you play with dangerous things, like socialism and communism.

Trump tried to tell you to get up off your entitled behind and make your own goods and products. Democrats whined and cried like a bunch of 2 year olds. The rest is history. Now it's off to "you will own nothing and be happy" land... Fun times indeed. I'm sure the next generation will totally appreciate what democrats have done to America.
Good thing the democratic party has transformed proud hard working men into feminized soy boys... I'm sure they can't wait to roll up their sleeves and do the hard work of making goods and products to restock empty shelves... With the deafening sound of loud machinery running constantly, 90 degree heat, and layers of slime and dirt covering every square inch of your workspace... Sounds like a dream job, right democrat soys?
Do you think you could take a Soyboy in the octagon? LOL.
Guess it was a bad idea to shut down the economy all so you could get the orange man out of office.
Now we have the unions hampering shipping at the docks
