How much is your local "Trump at the Pump Tax?"

we are already part way there.

 

More accurate:

2 billion people across
more than 130 countries-regularly eat

Many people who eat bugs do so by choice, not because they are starving and that's all there is. Grasshoppers in many places are a treat, more or less "flying shrimp". Eating these is so common that Americans and Europeans are the odd ones out. In Mexico, for instance, look for "chapulines".

Chinese street food has an assortment of land invertebrates on sticks, see the pictures in this link for some varieties:

probably better for you than cow

 

Yeah my problem with the “insects could solve hunger “ comment is that people all over the world already do and they are typically expensive enough that they are not normally going to be a primary dietary source.
They are more of a treat or delicacy.

collection, preparation, etc isn’t free, not like growing wheat or rice.

good cholesterol and usually very healthy protein.

 

not sure how we got here from gas prices but...grasshopper-farming-beginning

 

$4.49 at the nearest grocery-with-gas

 

There are already commercial farms for crickets and other bugs for the pet and bait trades.

 

I learned myself this while making a movie that involved a scene about a cricket infestation... fun times.

 

My yard creates billions of large black ants, probably not real tasty, tastes like burning.

There are farms for shrimp and lobster, still expensive

 

Where are the ‘long lines’ in the USA?

In the past, price increases were accompanied by fuel shortages and long lines at the gas stations. But this time, the price goes up yet gas demand does not follow a shortage of gas and diesel.

My perception is less traffic on the roads and fewer shoppers and diners. Our economic activity appears to have ‘turned down.’ I’ve seen that in past recessions. It is a compounding effect. Yet no lines.
