Hmm.
Maybe tripling the number of people on the planet in just 75 years wasn't a smart choice?

Maybe a short, bald, Parkinson's-addled loser's invasion of a sovereign country wasn't a smart choice.

Kinda leave one wondering if giving China the covid vaccine was a good idea.
But on the bright side the Russian population is going to be dropping for years now.

Sanctions are a bad idea? Maybe we should stop the madness?
Free the wheat germ. More food for everyone.

We're adrift in a storm rudderless in a leaking boat with no engine the man responsible is a feeble old man out of his depths and mind, Joe Biden.

Yeah, one man is responsible for worldwide food shortages. Why do these religious dummies always look for one person to hang all of the problems on? Where did they learn that scapegoating saves us all? Oh, wait, I know.

The most powerful man on the planet a complete victim of circumstance. The buck got lost in the supply chain.

Republicans...
simple minds, simple answers...
one man is not responsible for the GLOBAL food shortage...
try overpopulation, the war in Ukraine (the 3rd largest exporter of grain for food), um, global ---- warming and shifting climatic zones (that answers Lamplighter's Q #2), then there is China (you can find youtube videos on this or google results) which has been quietly buying up excess grain (because they actually look farther down the road than 3 months), not to mention CEO's of multiple corporations in this country being perfectly fine with watching the prices go up, up, and up...
But hey, go back to your "Lets go Brandon" revival or your 2nd cousins marriage to his kid sister... whatever works for you...

FTA, this is the UN's 5-step plan to fix everything.
The U.N.'s Guterres has urged a five step plan to help confront the challenges: increasing supplies of food and fertilizers; social protection systems within countries; more access to international finance; further government help for smallholder food producers; and better funding for humanitarian operations to reduce famine and hunger.
Brilliant plan there, champ.

Oddly enough it's always the culmination of something that starts at the end of a GOP POTUS term.
It's almost as if you economic ideas are ---- but you cling to them anyway...

At least Biden has a plan.
And I bet you loved Trumpy's "plan" so much better. Btw. What was his plan? Besides overthrowing his own government and negligently murdering hundreds of thousands of innocent Americans.

Patience grasshopper.
Trumpy is no longer President and republicans are currently not in power. So once again democrats have to repair the rudder and steer the ship of state out of the ditch that republicans left it in.
That takes some time. So be patient grasshopper.
The country will be almost back in shape (without help from republicans who try to block and obstruct any progress of course ) just in time for you morons to wreck it again come next election cycle.
Unless you can't wait and try to overthrow the government again.

How is the president of ONE country causing GLOBAL food shortages?
Gosh it's almost as if you're desperate to dishonestly blame everything on one person...
