There is no doubt that shortages are occurring more often in our country. My very elderly mother has an incontinence problem and yesterday I looked online to buy adult underwear to deal with this problem. Products are available but choices and sizes are limited and some deliveries are one month out. Adult diapers! It’s getting pretty damned bad when it’s hard to buy adult diapers in the proper size! I’m also trying to get her private at-home assisted care but agencies are stressed and nothing is available.
My last trip for groceries at Walmart, there was plenty available, but there were still many many brands and varieties that disappeared last winter and are still nowhere to be found.
A while back I read that UPS and FedEx couldn’t get enough trucks for deliveries. Yesterday UPS announced that due to insufficient capacity they would not be accepting packages from 6 major retailers for christmas delivery. Folks, something is seriously wrong and our leaders are NOT working to improve the situation. This is the kind of stuff I witnessed overseas in communist and socialist countries. It’s slowly getting worse and worse and I fear we are rapidly approaching the tipping point.
