If it was the average guy... now he would get the ticket!
Staying home doesn't apply to the non-elites I guess... wonder where the RCMP etc. are.
Snow walker.
“Have to wonder if we’d have been better off following New Zealand, shutting down for 4 weeks” .is predicting where things will end up? “Wonder”.....does that not mean uncertainty in English?
Or are you referring to not knowing where or what things will look like in 1 month, or 6? On this last and have said times, no-one knows.. Does that to, not mean uncertainty in English? ..How does not knowing what things might look like translate to “doom and gloom”?.
Or are you referring to expecting prices for somethings to take off?
Like produce/milk if farmers continue to lag, have problems with supply? Thats not really a prediction, as much as known fact. Are there supply issues today? Yes there are.....But if we really want to split fine hairs. What’s the definition of an expectation....Its not a prediction I’ll say that much...
I might for example expect to have sex on Valentines...Is it a prediction? Or a reasonable conclusion, given...But alas that doesnt happen all the time...
I expect i’ll win a hand of poker, because I have pocket Aces, and a pair showing.........its a reasonable conclusion given facts, not a prediction and certainly not a certaintity....
Fact:
On the financial/economic side, things do not bode well.If you want to argue otherwise...Well I have a mountain of data, facts. That today, do not bode well. Banks for example dont offer to defer mortgage payments because they care about you......
”panic”
The only panic I think we’ve seen are people buying TP, 3 weeks supply of groceries and arguably running to their cottages.
Hopefully this is a wake up call.
Agee 100% and then some.
Jben, Panic is just that, buying more TP in one trip then you normally use in almost a year. The supply chain is not in danger of breaking down, well the may be a few hiccups as we adjust it's not going to collapse. There is going to be shortages of a couple things from overseas at the start, but that is just the delays created by the system. Shipping companies are now treating a ship and it's crew like a Deep space mission now. Ship is cleaned, ship is loaded by workers, ship is cleaned again and that has been in isolation crew is put on board and ship sails. Most ocean freighters are at sea to meet the 14 day isolation requirements, and if not they do a few circles or have a couple recreation days at seas.
i don't know if my post about the "work from home" RV survived the problems on the board. If not I'll fill anyone in just ask.
Now for the chuckle:
( The background info)
I was in a TA travel center, last weekend. The TA's have repair shops for trucks and trailers. Most the same parts ( engine, transmission, suspension, etc) used for trucks are also used on RVs.
I was in to scale and get a coffee. I parked beside a very expensive looking RV. GUESS he has been broke there ( Clovis, NM) for about a week. Seems he needs an alternator. Shop says they don't have one for his RV. 15 minutes later, get my coffee and remark to girl that I did not know they were having trouble parts for repairs. She never even paused, just looks at me and says" Oh they have four or five Alternator in the shop. They just are not going to fix the RV. THOSE PEOPLE don't need to driving all over the country like that!"
Agreed Snowwalker. There are some things though that can't reasonably be "predicted". Like human behaviour. It's predictable to a degree, but only so much. "fear and greed".
In the space of time that the forum has been down, there have been some significant changes. Some of North Americas largest meat processing plants are shutting down. Like milk, thats the bottle neck.
Re shipping.
I spent time with a company that got a lot of product/components from Thailand. 6 weeks....
I was in Panama early in the winter. Container ships pay hundreds of thousands months in advance to book their passage. From our hotel room on the Eastern side, we could see the line of cargo ships, waiting, and waiting, and waiting for their entry. The morning is spent taking West bound ships through, the afternoon, East bound ships go through. At night, it looked a city across the lake, that stretched forever...That was long before shtf.
Will it collapse? Nope, but there are going to be problems, and ripple effects.

Like many of you, I think that left-wing, Liberal, nanny-state politics is a significant threat to North American life. Lately, I think those from the FAR right are an equally dangerous threat.
Occupy Democrats..... kind of like saying Lead Now, North 99, Press Progressive etc.
More 1/7th true 6/7th fake B.S. that ignores little things like creating a committee etc.

Mosq: understand that my intent was not to legitimize these left-leaning groups or support their beliefs. I was just pointing out that the right-leaning media sometimes does a disservice to the public as well.Quote:

This kind of sums it up... top part is what was shown in the media, bottom half ... "the rest of the story"

Trump may say some off the cuff comments but he seems to have good backup and is willing to think, unlike our useless PM.
