I bet when they start happening here they will change the name from food riots to something more PC.................can't think of what that would be right now but they don't usually like to call it what it is.
Michelle has already been busy restructuring the menu at McDonalds and Barry Obama gave them a pass on the health insurance thing...seems to me the math is adding up...when food riots are threatened..the govt will simply acquire/subsidize McDonalds and provide free "happy meals" courtesy of the long legged Mac Daddy ! :rofl:
Stimulus to create federal food redistribution workers; bail out for struggling food distribution corporations - nationalized food retail; mandated participation in federally subsidized food retail. Calorie scanners at public places, pat downs for candy bars. How about a "calorie tax" and the rich will be able to pay offsets for their calorie footprint ... any of this ringing a bell?
I can imagine a similar argument posed as the gun magazine restriction crowd: "No one needs more than 1200 calories anyway ..."
Looks like time to expand the garden, and get real about saving seeds. I guarantee that if a food riot did break out long term, then you can expect seeds to be a commodity and with prices climbing. Matter of fact, just today I compared the price of some seeds that I bought today, versus last year. Up 29 cents.
I have often been of the opinion that at some point in US history fedgovcoinc will have to subsidize the fast food industry to feed the starving/obese poor in the inner city regions for some time before the doo doo really hits the fan.
Along with the dramatic rise in the use of food stamps, subsidised housing, welfare, "I be entitled to the Paris Hilton lifestyle" culture of the dependant on everything mentality we are very much in the first stages of the serious societal collapse predicted by anyone with 2 functioning brain cells for the last 2 decades.
All of us should be ready for legions of starving cannibals!
"You may as well bring dope and beer."
"What???"
"Ammo dude, bring ammo."

thought about this thread early this morning as I was watching the local news channel doing the regular traffic update...if you've ever lived in a riot area..ie LA...it's freaky..but I would expect that the morning news would start doing traffic report type updates on areas to avoid due to food "rallies".. I know for a fact that last Monday..parades, etc being the order of the day, that myself and many others make a point to watch the news and know where the parade routes and the rally gathering spots will be...and we make alternate travel plans.
You guys are funnier than any comic I've ever paid to see.
S.A.D. may be the best. Maybe because its funny and leads to a new Health Care Issue. But they were all great. Anybody out there make T shirts. I'd buy one.
The Obamaites will use these titles, it's only a matter of time.
After the food riot, (Free food festival, Lunch looting, Undocumented shopping, Liberal Lard ass parade, Young Democrats meeting?), Billybob says; "I really hate these rioters!". Tyrone replys; "Here, try the potato's then."
Question: Would Muslims loot a Piggly Wiggly??
When rioting, be sure to listen for "The scoops are on there way!".
