Prepare For the Year of Bread Lines
Did you like the part of the global economic meltdown where world governments had to step in to save the financial markets from total collapse? Then you'll love the part where they start rationing our food and oil supplies!
Goldman Sachs analysts say it's coming! Their report, via the FT:
We expect a commodity supply shortage in 2010...we expect a redux of 2008 when severe supply constraints forced the rationing of demand through sharply higher prices to keep the markets balanced.
Bread lines, raiding rival villages for corn, Milagro Beanfield Wars, all that. We're sure that this is all Goldman's fault, we just haven't figured out how yet.
