I could not find any product searching on target.com for pro-trans or “trans-affirming”, “chest binders” so perhaps Targets online inventory is zip code based.

maybe the ‘pregnant’ guy drank all the baby formula?

(sorry... no disrespect to all the parents who have gone through hardships as a result of this travesty)

It is more than inconvenient.

No one has mentioned the obvious, based on our Australian experiences: baby formulas flew to CHINA!

Remember that Shanghai and Beijing are under dragonian lockdowns.

looks like ours pallets of formula re-routed to southern boarder... Trespassers First policy. (as reported by Brighteon)

also a report out(Dow Jones) that Abbott formulas from plant in Michigan resulted in bacterial illness in 4 babies, 2 deaths... compounding the shortage (another food plant coincidence)

I would have thought their quality controls would have been extremely stringent! Is that Michigan, China?

Yes. I saw that. However, I've not seen any reference to China.

China had form in 2019 and 2020 re PPE! Remember? Not just from USA; they also cleaned out Japanese stores. I got that infor direct from a Yankee living in Japan.

wow... and the PPE that restocked the shelves here was crappy... i use the supposedly waterproof gloves for gardening and they often have holes in them.

They bought all 3M and brand name ones; and export their own versions....

This is what happens when we demand high wages AND low prices. I am puzzled that people complain of high prices, but not high wages - except by employers, of course.

By definition, high wages must lead to high prices. And it does not make sense for an operation to produce anything at a loss; unless, of course, through scale and over time it can recoup such losses, like Amazon. However, most businesses are not Amazon and will never be.

That is why China makes everything because it has massive labour and hence their wages are low.
