The entire world sent their supply chains to China. Then they are suprised when one hiccup destroys their inventories.

I used to spend $4000+/year at Starbucks. Now I avoid the place because they claim there is a "National Emergency shortage of Matcha Powder". Seriously? This is just another example of overpaid CEOs and overpaid Directors failing to do their job at the expense of their employees and shareholders.

I will add that I have a huge amount of respect for small businesses who didn't make the decision in the 70s/80s to send all our manufacturing to Japan, China and Vietnam. They are caught in a catch 22 with no way to order domestically because the bigger slimeball corporations destroyed our manufacturing base for profit.. and continue to do so.
