Now, this economic fallout, by the way, is bad.
And they're saying there's going to be a major food crisis in six months.
And that people are not going to be able to get food.
The closure of the Strait of Hormuz is not a temporary disruption, says Politico, but the start of a systemic shock to global food prices.
So now, because by the way, we talked about it on Pierce Morgan the other day, fertilizer, things like this, that move through the Straits of Hormuz, by the way, are not moving.
So it's hurting everything.
It's hurting agriculture.
Decisions now by farmers and governments on fertilizer use, imports, financing, and crop choices will determine whether food prices spike later this year or in early 2027.
You know who this hurts the most?
Eli Lilly and the makers of the GLP-1s.
The makers of the GLP-1s depend on the fact that on this planet right now, in a lot of the Western countries, specifically the one I live in, we have a lot of fatty boombatties.
And Eli Lilly and many other companies are now coming up with these GLP-1 drugs that help people eat less.
Great.
If the food stops showing up at the grocery store, people are going to have to, or it's too expensive, people are going to have to starve naturally the way they did in the Great Depression.
So no more injectables, no more GLP-1s.
People are just going to have to go to bed with an empty stomach like an orphan from Oliver Twist.
And the only people that will be fat will be rich people who can afford the food prices.
And then you go back to the Great Depression.
