I don't know about her symptoms, but emergency medical treatment in much of America is top notch. Something we still do well, she was whisked away. When ER response and treatment falls into the same disrepair we see in many other institutions, we'll know the collapse is upon us.
I've been proud to repeat over my lifetime that America's food production is unequaled in human history and our finest achievement, We Make Food and lots of it. So why is this the first time in my life I'm seeing food shortages in the middle of food wonderland?
Incompetent management can kill any enterprise, no matter how crucial that enterprise might be. If they can kill off food in this country they can cripple the medical system too.

We are very close to that. The only reason it is still working so well is because affirmative action has a hard time piercing a job profession where you cannot be lazy.

Yeah it makes no sense. All my life the US has been declared the number one world provider of food, and the midwest called the "breadbasket of the world". Now suddenly Ukraine produces like 60% of the world's grain and so "the war is causing food shortages"...except the shortages started during Covid. Nothing adds up.

This is true, but corporate media treats California as if it is, with their drought making lead news almost daily.
We can do without a nationwide salad bar, seeing as how fresh vegetables can be grown locally nearly anywhere (tho not on a gigantic scale) but not without a national breadbasket.
I love the irony: When the industrial food system collapses we will need to revert to "free range, organic" local farming again, where we were before 1945.
I can see the conversion of suburban golf courses and mall parking lots and entire strip malls to farming and ranching. After the panic in the cities dies down, things would smooth out nicely and the food supply would be de-industrialized and more wholesome.

I'm kind of thinking the Amish had the right ideas all along.
