I just read in
Forward Observer, Sam Culper's daily intel report, a few things worth sharing with
Unchainedpreppers readers.
One CENSUS: The Commerce Department and Census Bureau are updating their information collection requirements. A new version of the Household Pulse pandemic impact survey will ask citizens which brand and how many doses of vaccines they have received. Further information on unemployment benefits and insurances will be requested from a few million households. (AC: These information gathering operations typically precede an Executive action or broad public messaging campaign to achieve some end. The new survey results are expected at the end of October, indicating an Executive action or policy announcement in the winter. Reading between the lines, the pressure campaign against unvaccinated individuals will continue as well as a likely expansion of unemployment benefits related to the pandemic. ? D.M.)
Rather than go door to door as previously proposed, it looks like Uncle Joe is going to get your info through a census.
TwoVESSELS: Heavy congestion persists in the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach with 61 vessels anchored or drifting in the San Pedro Bay. Port management officials are expanding the Vessel Traffic Service area from 25 miles to 80 miles in order to accommodate the growing number of ships waiting to dock. Some vessels have been drifting or anchored for weeks as continued shortages of dock workers, truck drivers, and limited warehouse storage are blamed for the decreased processing rate. The Port of LA?s director said container dwell time ?has reached its peak since the surge began.? (AC: The ongoing logistics constraints show no signs of relief throughout the remainder of 2021. Increased shipping rates, regardless of delays, are being passed along to consumers in the form of higher prices. Expect continued decreased availability in items manufactured overseas as port congestion and disruptions globally remain persistent issues. ? D.M.)
