The President of the United States of America, the most prosperous country in the world, has warned the American people that a food shortage is a real possibility in our near future. Much like our national energy shortage, this potential crisis has been made much more likely by President Biden's out-of-control spending and his unwillingness to tap into American resources, ingenuity, and its people. Since January of 2021, the prices of many of the key inputs used to produce our Nation's food supply have substantially increased. Ammonia is up 203 percent; liquid nitrogen is up 162 percent; and farm diesel, used in almost every piece of farm equipment, is up a whopping 95 percent. Spending more money won't fix this; in fact, it has made it worse by causing the prices of everything to go up. If a food shortage does come to the United States, the sole person to blame will be President Biden, who has wasted no time spending our country into a crisis. ____________________
