The following report is from News Nation:
Supply chain woes are not over just yet. A national tire shortage is now making those winter roads harder and more expensive to navigate.
David Hay, president of Hay Tires Pros, said the shortage is a mixture of a squeeze on global shipping containers, pandemic disruptions within the rubber sector and a rise in demand from China.
The ones made in America, no problem. But the premium Asian tires, those are the ones we’re having problems with. They’re stuck on ships on the West Coast.
Hay said the shortage is causing major stress to the auto industry.
It’s causing all kinds of stress. Then you add chassis shortages, driver shortages, truck shortages — it’s a real problem.
In Lansing, Michigan, body shops are facing the same issues, especially when it comes to the demand for snow tires this winter season. Customer Shawn Foxworth is also feeling the squeeze.
“We were shopping around for different brands,” he said. Foxworth was looking for tires before a planned road trip, but because of the backlog, he ended up waiting a longer time than expected.
It took a while to get here.
He also mentioned that the consumer prices for tires went up, as well.
We didn’t pay that much for them last year.
The growing list of car parts in short supply is making getting around harder and more expensive.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recommends drivers check their tires at least once a month during the winter season.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter.
These manufactured and purposeful supply chain issues are created (in this specific scenario) for control and mitigation of the masses. It forces the masses to travel a bit less due to precautionary measures. But it also forces an inevitably flock to the smart and electric cars, where all the parts are interconnected one to another – which are part of the new push to “go green” and lower this make-believe “carbon footprint.”

This falls right in line with the push to get rid of used and older cars, because they don’t have the tech where the vehicle can be controlled and monitored more. On top of that, the U.K. looking to strip away private ownership of vehicles. Though this not happening in the U.S. (yet), it is the subtle way of getting the nation to those goals. Read the Agenda 2030 and Absolute Zero goals and checkpoints if you don’t believe me.
The time is coming when we will be faced with the reality of having to shift into something other than a [real] car. This will mean off-road, cross-country, and mountain bikes; horses, sled dogs, walking, and so forth. Buckle up for it.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).
