I just heard a major pork manufacturer is shutting its doors.

The inflation to combat deflation?

I did read .gov is making payouts to cull cattle and not produce although I can not confirm yet.

I suspect all lot of preparation went forward based on the original model, now proven to have way over predicted the problem. As usual the media hyped it up BASED on the predictions and are not looking like fools (they are any way). Expect Trump to get his way and things open up sooner than later.

I like your style.

Smithfield shutting U.S. pork plant indefinitely, warns of meat shortages during pandemic

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-h...-idUSKCN21U0O7

CHICAGO (Reuters) - Smithfield Foods, the world’s biggest pork processor, said on Sunday it will shut a U.S. plant indefinitely due to a rash of coronavirus cases among employees and warned the country was moving “perilously close to the edge” in supplies for grocers.

Slaughterhouse shutdowns are disrupting the U.S. food supply chain, crimping availability of meat at retail stores and leaving farmers without outlets for their livestock.

Smithfield extended the closure of its Sioux Falls, South Dakota, plant after initially saying it would idle temporarily for cleaning. The facility is one of the nation’s largest pork processing facilities, representing 4% to 5% of U.S. pork production, according to the company.

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem said on Saturday that 238 Smithfield employees had active cases of the new coronavirus, accounting for 55% of the state’s total. Noem and the mayor of Sioux Falls had recommended the company shut the plant, which has about 3,700 workers, for at least two weeks.

“It is impossible to keep our grocery stores stocked if our plants are not running,” Smithfield Chief Executive Ken Sullivan said in a statement on Sunday. “These facility closures will also have severe, perhaps disastrous, repercussions for many in the supply chain, first and foremost our nation’s livestock farmers.”

Smithfield said it will resume operations in Sioux Falls after further direction from local, state and federal officials. The company will pay employees for the next two weeks, according to the statement.

The company has been running its plants to supply U.S. consumers during the outbreak, Sullivan said.

“We have a stark choice as a nation: we are either going to produce food or not, even in the face of COVID-19,” he said.

Other major U.S. meat and poultry processors, including Tyson Foods Inc (TSN.N), Cargill Inc [CARG.UL] and JBS USA [JBS.UL] have already idled plants in other states.

All it takes to cut meat is a sharp knife, a will to do it and a carcass.

Oh...and if you live in Minnesota ...a wood chipper.

I bought a lot of groceries today. Not many people out shopping but it was early. Some people were wearing masks but things seemed pretty normal. This in Cadillac, Michigan. Shelves were well stocked and many meats available. Prices, especially for produce were quite reasonable. I even bought a watermelon. These may be historic times because we might not see such abundance again. I hope it is not so.

The Amish store was almost empty but well stocked with goods and especially bulk items. The Amish workers there did not seem affected at all by this 'emergency' (yeah, right..) and were coming right up close to ask if any assistance was needed. I wonder what they will do if cash is outlawed, because that is all they take. I suppose they might deal with checks if they know you.

I find myself wondering what China has been offered in this whole scamdemic deal; They hold what, $1.2 Trillion in US bonds? Supposedly this helps them keep their currency pegged to the dollar. Perhaps the real plan is to peg the dollar to the Chinese Renminbi. This will require a reset of enormous magnitude. They are in on whatever plot is afoot and I'm sure their greasy little fingers will be deep into the pie.
