Again with the food shortage lie.
Bay Area Shoppers Asked To Limit Rice Purchases
…And at least one Bay Area store is asking customers to hold back on their rice purchases. Costco has posted signs asking customers to follow their regular rice-buying habits.
At the least it is a blatant over-exaggeration. Same non-story, same store, new headline.

According to the media, Japan is having a food shortage as well. But according to people in Japan, there is plenty of food. Same in Thailand: Bogus reports of riots due to food shortages.
So, who would benefit from advancing the hysteria of massive food shortages due to primarily the west’s desire to replace fossil fuels with corn oil? Hmmm, a state which produces oil maybe? One who doesn’t want to see large proportions of energy demands shifted away from petroleum towards alternative sources, maybe? Or maybe just a group of media moguls, aka the MSM, who openly support those who would be harmed by a reduction in oil demand?
first off, they are “asking” people to limit their purchases. the amusing part? besides that whole there is no food shortage thing? is that you can buy as much as you want,and they can’t do a thing about it.
already did it…..and it was funny as hell.
i couldn’t resist after listening to the worlds’ biggest jackass, the self righteous CEO of COSTCO blame the MEDIA for the hype. even when asked repeatedly by the interviewer “if there is no shortage then why is COSTCO limiting what people can buy?” this yutz said it was “to prevent the [imaginary] food shortage from becoming a reality”
so you take REAL action to prevent the imaginary………
oooo-kay.
They have to do it to counteract the media who are routinely manipulated — some willingly, come not — into making the imaginary real. Global Warming and Peak Oil, for examples.
