Its no surprise people feel that way, I mean open your computer and order from Amazon, get an Uber, watch whatever streamed and book Airbnb anywhere.
Recent items like a bridge crack, a pipeline shutdown and a blocked canal are minor irritants, but perhaps some are noticing.
We take things for granted until they arent there, but the problem of high food prices being followed by meat(once farmers stop sending their cattle to market because they cant afford to feed them) and other commodities is an irritant in the west, food prices are not that different all over the world, a $1 rise in something I notice but no big deal, $1 is significant in the 3rd world.
In the 3rd world, everyone from the west is rich, even if you borrowed your airfare on a credit card and deep in debt, you are still rich since often the cloths on your back represent 6 months of wages to them.
