Because fractional reserve banking has been a thing for hundreds of years but the housing crisis has only been around for a few decades and has only gotten extremely bad in recent years.

But it keeps getting worse, exponentially from that first cause. If you want to save the patient you have to cut the tumor out. Who cares if it's only a problem now? Von Mises on 100% reserve banking. Also it's been around for about 100 years.

You do realize that it took the US a few months to a few years into both World Wars to get into full war production? And they did that by commandeering existing manufacturing companies to build parts?

Take the "essential services" part of the COVID era and apply that to wartime production. If the item you built did not benefit the US Army, the government would force you to build something else. Materials for civilian products got rationed.

There is a reason we have oddities like M1 Garands made by International Harvester.

If you told these people that the US military's only gunpowder factory blew up four years ago and still hasn't been rebuilt yet they wouldn't believe you.

Wasn't there a SINGLE factory that made the shells for the artillery that the USA sent to Ukraine? And it was having to work 24/7 to fill orders because it was literally the only one that exists to make the shells?

Sort of.
The US Army has several arms production facilities that make large artillery shells.
In 2018 or 2019 there was a plan implemented to upgrade the facilities to modern standards. The plants temporarily went offline to get new equipment and lines set up, and it was staggered so that at least SOME capacity was available for the majority of the re-tool. In 2022 There was a several month gap between Scranton (the first plant to get upgrades) coming back online and Iowa (the final plant) being offlined that coincided nearly perfectly with Russia's decision to send up the balloon and go into Ukraine. So for about a year, year and a half Scranton was the only production.
Two facilities in Texas are now coming back on online, and Iowa is getting money thrown at it to bring it back online ahead of schedule.

There is also a facility in... I think Oklahoma or Arkansas (or maybe normal Kansas) that was mothballed and is either being considered to get retooled and brought online or has already been approved. I honestly forget the finer details and haven't kept up on the latest.

The debanking of Trump's family members has started a chain of events that will inevitably lead to Null being able to process credit card donations on the Kiwi Farms.

A huge part of the reason behind this is because the manufacturers weren't going to open up new production lines without guaranteed future contracts. What's the point spending capital, time, resources, hiring & training new people, retooling machines, etc. to make artillery shells when there is a chance some peacenik is just gonna pull the rug out from under you later?

3. Special Military Operation in Mexico to protect the American people and to deaztecify and demilitarize the naro-regime in Mexico city. Turn it into an unincorporated territory like American Samoa but with a separate nationality. No citizenship and no immigration.

And for all the gloating about egg prices going up, I'll temporarily pay more for eggs now as long as faggots are being deported, it was not tenable to have $5/dozen eggs and ALSO being hit by drunk illegals on the road and then they rape your female family members at the same time. This is what true progress looks like, and soon we'll deport you too.

This right here.
Going out to eat at fucking McDonalds used to be a special occasion. Cookbooks from the 60s and 70s talk about how to maximize your groceries and save on flour and eggs. Money is also super cheap after the panic of trying to keep everything on rails after 2008 and COVID. To say nothing of retarded states like California raising minimum wage.
Prices were going to go up, it was good to enjoy it. I don't care they are going up. I'm fine paying my taxes.

What I'm NOT fine with is my tax dollars going to pay for murderers to have dickflips, illegals to murder citizens, medical care for illegals and anchorbabies, hiring a bunch of hoodniggers to do-nothing patronage jobs, and having someone teach starving ethopians about respecting pronouns. Prices going up because Xu Fu Ching is hiding assets from the Chicoms.
