Short answer is yes.

Only everything.

It’s a magical time of year for the oligarchs, kid. You, not so much..

Covid in China will.

Yep. Everything that’s not locally made from local materials.

If only The Disciples would put a little effort into putting Christ back into Christianity.

Without corporate greed, would there even be a list?

I’m afraid so, son! If the CEO’s don’t get their huge Xmas bonus, they throw tantrums….

Your presence will cost you nothing. Maybe we can start getting off of the conspicuous consumption band wagon?

Not just a supply chain problem, but throw in a human resource problem as well. Not enough raw materials and not enough people to make the stuff. And what stuff is made is sitting in a boat undergoing quarantine protocols. This is a classic pig in the snake situation. The snake is the supply chain and the pig is the problem that the snake has. The pig will get through the snake and be slowly digested, it will not get fixed overnight.

“Will corporate greed affect anything on my Christmas list?”

Always has. Always will. Ever since their have been corporations.

Yeah, right! Biden’s inflation has nothing to do with it. Merry Christmas to all!

It’ll shorten it.

Son, corporate greed will affect everything on your list. But as Michael Douglas assured us in Wall Street, “Greed is good.” /s

Yeah, all the prices are higher so they can make historic profits. That’s the capitalism you created.

How about a nice football, made in China.

Oh, sweetie! There isn’t anything on your list that will not be affected by corporate greed. :-(
