This is a good thing. It isnt enough to solve the issue, but is a proactive move by @GovRonDeSantis
The Just In Time Supply Chain is going to need more than just Florida as a fractional relief valve to come back to life. We're looking at Q2 of 2022 at the earliest. Likely later.
This series of threads should supply you with a baseline for understanding global supply chains in an easy to digest format. You can now consider these issues with more precision, knowledge, and depth related to your own business and industry.
Expect Self Rescue. Policy is slow.
If you're relying on policy changes to alter the global issues that the supply chain faces, you're going to drown. Do what the American oilmen are doing. Find something on the market that could work, retool it, and make it your own. While costly it may save your business.
If you look at low-margin microchips not being available you'll see that industry has shifted to what was on market (higher tech microchips) and integrated the cost into the price. They are now getting a premium for the product and found a way to keep product on the shelves.
While this isn't great for the consumer who eats the cost, it means that the industries that rely on those products being on the shelves can survive another season. Forestalls unemployment. Perhaps long enough for low-margin chips to be available again. Its an innovative stopgap.
No one knows whether the Just In Time supply chain is going to ever come back online the way it was before March 2020. But adjusting now to the current reality will be to your benefit as both a consumer and a business owner. Be Proactive.

New Generation Cartel is the only cartel to have seen exponential growth during the COVID epidemic. Why? They're based on the West Coast (Pacific Ocean) and they control the ports. They've been able to nearly monopolize this end of China's Fentanyl exports.
Nothing moves into or out of China in serious bulk without the Chinese Government knowing about it. Tacitly they are behind these exports. This is yet another front on the modern battlefield that we as Americans are yet to fully recognize.

Sinaloa Cartel didn't have this advantage and had almost ZERO access to this distribution pipeline out of China. They actually had to begin smuggling fentanyl out of the US, put it into their products, and then smuggle it back in. This is costly, time consuming, and cumbersome.

The FBI has ordered google to hand over the search history and identifying user information of anyone who searches for certain words on google. This list of "illegal" words has not yet been revealed. These are called "Keyword Warrants". msn.com/en-us/news/tec…
With "Keyword Warrants" the FBI is now actively targeting "thought crime" in the truest Stasi fashion. Trawling through Google's search history database enables FBI to identify people merely based on what they might have been thinking about said Jennifer Granick of the ACLU.
This never-before-possible technique destroys the bill of rights and will inevitably sweep up innocent people, especially if the keyword terms are not unique and the time frame not precise. To make things worse, FBI are doing this in secret, which insulates them from oversight.

Psaki made a shit joke about treadmills that showed her elitist attitude towards regular Americans and those trying to get information out of this administration. But why do treadmills matter? Lets take a look...
foxbusiness.com/politics/psaki…
Few truly care about treadmills. It isnt something people are actually having a cow over right now. But they do give us keen insight into the current supply chain crisis if we take a further look. Initially, people will think well there must be a bunch of exercise equipment...
stuck on ships and in the containers at the ports. And the issue is that we have no way to get those things to the stores. While thats happening, thats not why treadmills matter. Treadmills matter because of what they are made of: pipe, steel, wire, & other functional materials.

Most in government and in society don't understand that the modern world operates on a "just in time" supply chain. People keep asking "What caused this?" "Brandon is an idiot, he's ruining the economy!" "Is it because workers are refusing the jab?" Lets take a look...
The shutdown in early 2020 was the first time in modern history that supply chains and national economies all decided to collectively pause for a 15 day period. This has never happened before. Not after 9/11, not after the fall of the Berlin Wall, or the collapse of the USSR.
There was no fundamental understanding of what this would do. Many felt that economies and supply chains would pickup where they left off, like a 2-week vacation had just happened. But this wasn't what happened. Things fumbled trying to start back up in a big way.
