To address the infant formula shortage that’s causing widespread frustration and even panic across America, the illegitimate Biden regime has invoked Korean War-era emergency powers found in the Defense Production Act, which is administered by FEMA. That act, originally intended to allow emergency executive action to shore up critical infrastructure during times of war, is now being used by the Biden regime to seize control over food supply raw materials and force companies to deliver them to Abbott Laboratories to manufacture large quantities of heavily processed, junk food “infant formula” made with corn syrup solids and processed milk proteins.
Because this effort simply redirects existing food materials, this does not actually solve any food shortages in America, it merely shifts the shortages from one product category to another.
It also stands as a centrally-planned food distribution plan that resembles communism, not free market dynamics.
Civilization will need to collapse for this to end. When everyone is dead, including the 'elites' things will get better.

Unless the voting system has been fixed, not going to happen. They have already proven they can steal elections and get away with it. IMHO. What is to stop them from doing it again and again?
Either way , it's deliberate. My Vanguard portfolio is thrashed.

I wouldn't call it a slow collapse. Things seem to be spiralling out of control very quick, with no end in sight. The best we can hope for is a red wave in November and then a republican president to reverse all the harm this Potato has caused.

A week ago people on this forum were demanding he do exactly this, now they're upset that his has done it?
You can't have it both ways, either the state does this or private companies do it.
Invoking the act allows the government to require suppliers to send needed ingredients to baby-formula manufacturers ahead of any other customers, according to a statement announcing the move.

As I mentioned in another thread, Trump invoked the DPA once in 2017 and three times in 2020.
Does that make him a super-Commie?

You have a link to this? I read that the deaths were from formula from another plant, not this one.
Opportunistic and grand standing?
Biden took charge and responsibility by using the single fastest and least beurocratic method available to him.
