But do you have the fertilizers for it?
Russia to "temporarily" suspend fertilizer exports



Fertilizer: Russia, Ukraine Conflict Could Cause Supply, Price Issues – DTN



A massive amount of fertilizer is being removed from the market, as well as gas, which is an essential feedstock for making it.

We are talking about a disruption affecting over 50% of supply.
Ukraine and Russia are both major wheat exporters,and the major supplies of staples to the Middle East and Africa.
This will hit US agribusiness as well, food prices will skyrocket in Europe,Africa and Asia and the effects will be felt in the USA eventually.
Oh,and some of your refineries can only work with heavier Russian/Canadian tar sand/Venezuelan crude.
Also, due to massive under-investments in production capacity we can not ramp up oil production to make for all of the shortfalls.
Energy IS the economy!
Arab Spring 2.0 soon.


Sorry about that, Boot, thing is I am facing at best sustained double digit inflation here, the poorest segments of my country's population will go hungry,people might actually die because of this.
All because of western social media spergouts,Eurocrat incompetence and the US neocons deciding to shill for Oligarchs and Neo-nazis, and Poland's little vendetta against Russia.
The flees on the tail wagged the dog into something that might turn into a full-blown systems collapse, and the parties responsible probably will not be punished.
Wanna stick even more salt in the wound, well Ukrainian refugees are coming here as well, and guess who will wind up paying for them, and we can say goodbye to revenues from Russian tourists.
The damages are very,very real,the actual damage to me and people I know is very,very real!
The US is a fertilizer exporter and makes way more than it uses, the reason the shortage is a problem is Europe Africa and Asia. In fact Florida is home to major potash mining, including Mosaic the worlds second largest fertilizer firm.

That doesn't really help the so-called world island.

Also, here is something actually decent from Sarg:

UK gasolene now 11$/gallon
Trump era looks like a golden age.
Germany actually buying more gas from Russia, flows doubling.

No but it means the harm will mainly go to Africa Asia and Europe rather than causing famine in the US.

Here’s something to consider:

How much resources are used in growing things like almonds, cashews and other kinds of stuff for the so called “vegan friendly milk”? Compared to the resources used to raise cattle and perhaps goats for their milk, I would think that the vegan movement should have realized that forcing the entire planet to go vegan would actually harm the animals they allegedly tried to protect. Same with other dairy products like cheese and yogurt, as well as meat.

Dr. DOOM!



I am fundamentally in agreement with him, he just has his timing wrong.


Maverick's daily coverage:

Stocks are crashing, wheat prices going to the moon, massive political destabilization.

Black Rock alone loses 17 billion.
Geez, couldn't have happened to a bigger bunch of leftard morons.
Citi has massive exposure, as does Deutche Bank,BNP Paribas and some others.

You know that things are bad when even Tech lead reports on them:
More than half of the world population actually sides with Russia.
Massive inflation out of control.
Increasing interest in alternate reserve currencies.
Massive potential impact on western social media and tech companies.
Poor people will be the ones holding the bag, countries will work harder to be less dependant and connected to the west.

"This might be the end of global tech companies."

It is kind of hilarious that 2 weeks ago the price of gasoline in my city was around 42 pesos($0.78) per liter and now it is fucking 74 pesos ($1.38) per liter today. I'm starting to think that learning how to fish is good idea but dodging Chinese Navy Patrols is a pain. I'm really annoyed how a war in Europe is affecting my country's economy when it is already struggling from the pandemic.

Well, perhaps you can get a nice deal like India, that will be receiving Russian oil at a discount and pay for it in Rupees.

The part of the world that makes money and overpriced, crappy services is trying to go to war with the part of the world that makes stuff.

Stuff beats money, which is just an unit of exchange.

Yeah, our current foreign policy is "to be friend of all, enemy of none" but China makes it very difficult to maintain. Also, my country have to be very careful in dealing with Russia because the US Congress might increase funding to various subversive elements through NED(National Endowment for Democracy). I mean there was already an attempt to influence the upcoming election by proxy like Rappler. If we make a deal with Russia we still need to have US approve of it or suffer consequences.

I wonder if Russia will accept Chicken and Fruits for Oil?:ROFLMAO:

Kazahstan showed Russia that it is rather good at dealing with Color Revolutions.

Also, the distance between Vladivostok and Manila over a sea route is 2325 nm. Compare that with 4397 to Sidney and 1947 to Osaka.
Also compare that with the distance between the Port of Chennai and Vladivostok, which is 5647 nm.
You should be able to buy oil, fertilizers and grains from them, in exchange for stuff you make.
Russia's policy has been to turn towards the east for some time now, and they might be willing to help you out with your China problems.
India and China got to the table after years of bitter rivalry, maybe this will fix your problems with China, too.

Why do I get the feeling that the establishment in the Philippines is pushing for a Robredo presidency? Isko being President would be nice, but let’s not forget that the CBCP plays a big role in overthrowing presidents in the Philippines.
