Hi! I’m more worried about the global food supply in the next year due to the effects of the Ukraine-Russia war. Prices are raising right now, but if you research it, with the decrease in fertilizer and the fact that so much of the Ukrainian farmland is expected to become a warzone, there is a very real possibility that it will get much worse. Even farmers here in America are worried about their crop yields because they cannot get fertilizer. Plus, a lot of China’s wheat crop was destroyed due to flooding this year. Hopefully if there is a WW3 it won’t go nuclear. There’s a great article from the NYT on this. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/20/world/americas/ukraine-war-global-food-crisis.html
I’m sure that if there were to be a draft, they would include women. They’ve tried numerous times in the last few years to get women added to the Selective Service Act. As a female veteran, I think that’s a great idea. Of course there would probably be more exemptions than with male conscription due to pregnancy, motherhood, and whatnot. I’m wondering if the fast food issue is going to solve itself here soon. A lot of fast food restaurants around where I live are either closing or slashing hours due to both being unable to staff and to supply chain issues/raising prices. Americans are so used to being able to get whatever they want whenever they want that people are throwing fits they can’t get a burger at 2 a.m.
