Shortages for the rich, hunger for the poor · The Slippery Slope

• 0:07
  Hi, I'm Jay Fallon and you are listening to the slippery slope.
• 0:11
  So for a while now I've been talking about upcoming food,
• 0:15
  shortages Global Food shortages. There's been a lot of people
• 0:19
  talking about it, warning that it is coming.
• 0:22
  I believe it's going to be coming to Australia.
• 0:23
  Obviously, it's Global. But, you know, some people seem
• 0:26
  to think that, you know, we will be okay, won't affect us.
• 0:30
  I do believe even in a nation like Australia, which can
• 0:34
  sometimes feel so isolated and where we can buy, we can grow.
• 0:39
  Sorry, a lot of our own produce even and they should like us,
• 0:42
  we're going to be affected, but I want to run through this
• 0:44
  article and in the actually comes from the daily digest.
• 0:49
  What really stood out to me was the headline it is shortages for
• 0:53
  the rich hunger for the poor Global food crisis is coming and
• 0:59
  this is the main problem. It's the poor that are going to
• 1:02
  be affected the most as as with most things like this and in,
• 1:06
  Where we are such a wealthy Nation, it is really.
• 1:11
  It would be difficult in Australia.
• 1:13
  She died of starvation. It they would have to be some
• 1:17
  outlying factors pushing against you causing you to die of
• 1:22
  starvation. Other than just, a lack complete
• 1:25
  lack of food. Over, I'll go through some of
• 1:27
  the headlines, some of, the main areas of this article and, and
• 1:32
  just add my comment. So it says that this is the
• 1:35
  perfect storm. All the conditions are there.
• 1:38
  We've got war in the biggest wheat, producing region in the
• 1:41
  world global supply chain. As a consequence of the global
• 1:45
  covid-19, pandemic and climate change.
• 1:50
  I'm not sure about the climate change, but anyway, having a
• 1:53
  negative in the harvests. So the experts, now, it's always
• 1:59
  the experts. So the experts, the anonymous
• 2:01
  experts are warning us that it is highly likely that our
• 2:04
  worldwide food crisis, is on its way.
• 2:07
  So unfortunately, so it's the war among the wheat Fields, the
• 2:10
  current war in Europe, affects two of the most important.
• 2:14
  We producing countries in the world Russia which is in fourth
• 2:19
  place, and Ukraine. In seventh place.
• 2:22
  If you count the EU, as a single producer between the sanctions
• 2:26
  of the former, and the invasion of the ladder importing serial
• 2:29
  form either Eastern, European country is an impossibility for
• 2:33
  the time being, and then you've got somewhere like in India,
• 2:37
  which is having a horrendous Harvest at the moment.
• 2:40
  India is the world's third largest wheat producer.
• 2:44
  It's has its had a disastrous harvest in 2022.
• 2:49
  Due to the high temperatures were.
• 2:50
  Sometimes the temperatures have reached 43 degrees Celsius for
• 2:54
  days after days, which obviously is not good for wheat
• 2:58
  production, but this is also the cost of globalization, you know,
• 3:03
  those people that decided that told us all we need to be.
• 3:07
  We need to have a global economy.
• 3:09
  We need to trade trade everywhere.
• 3:11
  Don't worry about growing. Don't worry about just supplying
• 3:14
  your own Nation. Globalization is where it's at,
• 3:17
  but one of the tenants of economic globalization was is to
• 3:22
  relocate wherever it's cheaper to produce which you know, it
• 3:27
  all sounds good because when your whole when your whole
• 3:32
  thought process resolves about making money, of course you want
• 3:35
  to make Action Jeepers. But this has allowed Russia and
• 3:40
  Belarus to virtually Corner, the market of fertilizer production.
• 3:44
  And now Nations like America, Australia are farmers.
• 3:47
  We're paying the price because it's getting harder and harder
• 3:51
  to fertilize their fields. Therefore, you're going to have
• 3:55
  a famine around the world. In May the United Nations made a
• 3:59
  dire forecast around the world, 44 million people in 38
• 4:05
  countries are already at emergency levels of hunger which
• 4:10
  is just one step away from famine more than half a million
• 4:14
  people. In Ethiopia, South Sudan, Yemen
• 4:17
  and Madagascar are already in catastrophic or famine
• 4:21
  conditions some Millions will stop, that's the prediction.
• 4:26
  David Beasley, who is head of the United Nations world food
• 4:30
  programme. He was very clear in an
• 4:33
  interview with CNN, he said that Millions will starve countries
• 4:37
  will destabilize and families will migrate by necessity.
• 4:43
  So unfortunately, adding to all of this issue, you've got less
• 4:48
  exports because countries are focusing more on, local need the
• 4:54
  New York Times and other other news outlets have all reported
• 4:57
  that the Indian government have decided to ban wheat products or
• 5:01
  wheat export. Sorry to cover, local needs and
• 5:05
  slow down food prices. And this is this is the to the
• 5:09
  detriment of European and American markets.
• 5:13
  However, if you're in the, if you're part of the Indian
• 5:16
  government, your priority are your people, your constituents,
• 5:23
  your, the local Indian people. This is going to be the sticking
• 5:28
  point for a lot of people because we have organizations
• 5:30
  like the world economic Forum, like the United Nations like the
• 5:35
  World Bank. They want globalization, they
• 5:38
  want everyone to be growing their food and exporting it
• 5:41
  around the world. They do not want.
• 5:43
  Tends to be focusing in words, that's not their plan.
• 5:48
  They want a globalization, they want a global government.
• 5:52
  They are pushing for a global lot Global government, besides
• 5:55
  the fact that I believe a global government is wrong completely
• 5:58
  evil. It is against what the Bible
• 6:01
  says, not even looking at all of that Global government.
• 6:06
  It allows the rich to keep getting richer.
• 6:09
  Instead of allowing individual governments to focus, On the
• 6:13
  needs of their own people. So then you have the World Bank
• 6:19
  requesting that Nations that are facing shortages or governments
• 6:23
  might want to follow India's. Again, example and choose to
• 6:27
  limit or prohibit, exports, such as wheat or other others
• 6:31
  affected by the price hike, the World Bank has requested not to
• 6:36
  adopt these policies and they've singled out and they have
• 6:40
  singled out. Agricultural Powerhouse has such
• 6:43
  as Argentina, Brazil and Australia to please, the layout
• 6:47
  of the trade of all sorts of good, you know?
• 6:49
  If even if you're sitting there thinking, well, you know, it's
• 6:52
  not going to get too bad. It's not going to get too bad
• 6:54
  for like a nation like Australia.
• 6:56
  We've already seen these these shortages starting to affect us
• 7:02
  and, you know, things are really bad.
• 7:05
  Things must be extremely bad in other parts of the world.
• 7:08
  If we're seeing the kinds of effects that we see in and our
• 7:11
  supermarkets, for example, like I send this article, you've got
• 7:15
  had we've had times of no sunflower oil, prices might hike
• 7:20
  in developed countries, but some shortages are starting to be
• 7:23
  seen as well. One in New York Times, article
• 7:26
  from May 5 in 2022, was titled sunflower oil, vanishes as the
• 7:31
  Ukraine war grinds on. We've had, we've had I've
• 7:35
  noticed just myself in our local supermarkets sunflower oil
• 7:40
  supplies have been extremely short.
• 7:44
  Yeah, and then obviously what's made the news recently is baby
• 7:48
  formula the shortages of baby formula especially in the United
• 7:52
  States. You know this has been missing
• 7:53
  from the shelves like I said especially in the u.s. baby
• 7:57
  formula something that seemed Unthinkable a few years ago, the
• 8:01
  world's largest and most developed economies now appear,
• 8:05
  no different than third world countries and decided glassware
• 8:11
  is this going to lead. So unfortunately it might lead
• 8:16
  this model, have a domino effect.
• 8:19
  So what is true is that inner world as interconnected as we
• 8:22
  live in catastrophic effects of war or they say climate change
• 8:27
  cannot be missed. Adding to all of this, we've got
• 8:31
  issues with fuel. We've all seen it that the
• 8:34
  massive price hikes, you know, fuel is just even if you've got
• 8:39
  fuel you won't be able to afford to put it in.
• 8:41
  It's so expensive. So, you know, we agriculture
• 8:46
  isn't the only front affected by everything that was that will
• 8:50
  have already mentioned. If Russia cuts the gas to
• 8:54
  Europe, many countries will face energy and fuel problems.
• 8:58
  Prices will rise as they already have and food will also be
• 9:02
  affected. And we again seeing this in
• 9:04
  Australia because of the massive price hikes in our, in our fuel,
• 9:10
  our food prices are just, they are skyrocketing as well.
• 9:13
  However, this this whole article wraps up with the with a very
• 9:19
  telling subheading to finish it all off a world of peace and
• 9:24
  stability and it says and it goes on to say the best chance
• 9:29
  or the best choice is to return to a world of Peace, stability,
• 9:36
  and trade between countries without difficulties one thing.
• 9:39
  I don't, I don't really know of a world.
• 9:43
  Peace. We've had different times.
• 9:46
  Where, you know, they might seem to have been relative peace, but
• 9:49
  there's always been conflict somewhere in the world.
• 9:52
  We haven't had a world of peace and why I found this.
• 9:56
  This last subtitle subheading to be very interesting, reminded me
• 10:01
  of a reminded me of a verse in the Bible coming from for 1st
• 10:07
  Thessalonians 5:3 and it says, when they shall say, peace and
• 10:13
  safety, Safety. Then sudden destruction cometh
• 10:16
  upon them as travail upon a woman with child and they shall
• 10:20
  not Escape. So if you're asking what the
• 10:22
  heck does that mean J. So what it means is because
• 10:26
  modern man, basically is was corrupt deceived.
• 10:31
  He's not going to know, peace or safety, in Isaiah 40:8 22.
• 10:35
  It says, there is no peace, saith, the Lord unto the wicked.
• 10:41
  So, think about this. All of the increased security
• 10:45
  possess pervasive surveillance billions and billions of dollars
• 10:49
  that governments all over the world.
• 10:51
  Spend on security are any of our nation's, any safer.
• 10:56
  And is it ever going to come a time when the government's when
• 10:59
  the Australian government American government, whatever
• 11:02
  country you live in? Is it ever going to come a time?
• 11:05
  When your gun will be able to announce we have enough
• 11:08
  security? Everyone is safe.
• 11:10
  We have complete, peace, complete safety.
• 11:13
  T. It's not going to happen as it
• 11:15
  says, in Isaiah 57:21. There is no peace, saith.
• 11:19
  My God to the wicked. When you live in a world that
• 11:22
  can tin use to deny God continues to walk or to run
• 11:28
  toward sin continues to to embrace murder or abortion as
• 11:33
  just a natural thing to do and constantly pushes towards
• 11:36
  globalization. There is not going to be peace
• 11:40
  without God and as I said first, Is 53 when they shall say peace
• 11:45
  and safety. When you have a government
• 11:48
  standing up and say, hey, we're going to create this one world
• 11:50
  government and is one leader stands and so, yes, we're going
• 11:53
  to have peace and safety. I can give you peace and safety
• 11:57
  throughout the whole world. Then sudden destruction is going
• 12:00
  to come. Unfortunately, I believe we are
• 12:03
  going to have that because the Bible talks about it, we are
• 12:06
  going to have massive food, shortages.
• 12:09
  We're going to have famine. We're going to have what I
• 12:12
  believe we are. Are in Australia in this whole
• 12:14
  region. We are still pushing towards a
• 12:17
  war, believe it's some live Wars on the horizon, unfortunately,
• 12:21
  but all these things are coming together.
• 12:23
  Just as the Bible said, they would, that's my opinion.
• 12:27
  Thank you for listening to the slippery slope.
