Marine and the Hippie 220529 S02E15- The Great Baby Formula Shortage of 2022

The Marine and the Hippie

In this dialogue, we the Great Baby Formula Shortage of 2022. At some point there were policy decisions made that led to such a bottleneck in supply of baby formula, and created a panic among parents who insist that their children all need an ultra rare form of baby formula or their children will starve to death. But much of this is being driven by companies who make money selling formula to these parents and who inform them, through their allies in the Government and the media, that parents should not try to make their own formula. Nor can we seem to import it from other countries, because, for some reason, baby formula which is just fine for children in the EU or Canada or Mexico is probably extremely toxic for special American Children. More than anything, this shortage is evidence that Americans have chosen to become completely dependent upon corporations who exist by draining the life blood of Americans, rather than practicing self reliance and learning how to make food for their own children. We have forgotten, for the sake of corporate profits, what 10,000 years of human evolution has taught us, only within the last couple generations. This show argues that people should relearn self-reliance and learn how to do simple, basic things for ourselves rather than relying on the convenience of capitalism. Because, as this shortage teaches, Capitalism will not be there for us when we need it most.
