REAL SECURITY
Here was what I considered an inspiring article, http://cryptogon.com/?p=11551 . Forget about the fact that this was a freeze dried food purchase. Forget that beans and legumes would provide ten times the security, cheaper. That is not the important point. The point is that someone actually gets it. Paper promises are worth exactly what they are printed on. Your promise of a pension, worth spit. Your promise that your bank account will be there for you, worth spit. The promise that your tax dollars will provide police, fire or military protection, worth squat. On the contrary, your tax dollars went to the bankers, who made a loan to the government who will use the funds to throw your ass in a concentration camp. Anything anyone promises you, from undying love to future security, is a god damn lie. They might mean it at the time but they never deliver. People are bastard coated bastards with creamy bastard filling.

This guy cashes out his retirement fund and buys eight grand in food. Why? No specific reason, he just feels that those funds are in jeopardy and the only real security is food. Bravo. It doesn’t matter if everyone else is right and we have a slow collapse. Or, if me and the guy over at Survival Acres are right and a die off is coming. Either way, your paper promises are soon going to be ass wipe. In a long slow collapse we keep seeing AIG bailouts and GM bankruptcies. All well and good, you gush with a song in your heart and a smile on your lips, our hero the black knight will bail out every thing and every one. That worked pretty well for Zimbabwe, right? It isn’t just about economics anymore. If it was, the debate about more centralization and socialism being able to bail us out again like with the Great Depression might have merit. But it is all about a declining energy supply. That has never happened in this country before, so the old solutions won’t work ( which was more energy and more growth ).

When was the Great Rice Scare, a year ago? More of those are coming, but this time it will be foods you are more familiar with such as wheat, flour, beans, potatoes, etc. Every basic has doubled and tripled in price, and that was due to tame inflation and ethanol. Throw in a drought caused crop failure or two. Or a real inflation. Or a ramp up in food exports as the bankers screw us over again for more money. If we see less than a one percent increase in the population turning into hoarders, I think the shortages would accelerate. Shortages, then higher prices, then that new price being the new floor in price. Rice last year, what is next? With just in time inventories, increasing population, decreasing energy and increasing drought/floods, food price spikes and shortages are guaranteed. I personally guarantee them. If I’m wrong, a 200% refund on your subscription price.

But wait, you screech in righteous indignation. What about the huge new super duper oil field off of the coast of Brazil? That was one test well. No secondary wells were sunk to verify the guess to those billions of barrels of oil that are supposed to be there. It is all hype and no production. All the recent articles on the warning that we will peak production in 2020 are total BS. They pretend to be alarmed and warning us, but all they are doing is throwing down a false scent for you to follow. The globe has already peaked. 2020 we will be fighting each other with steel rebar clubs amidst the radioactive fallout from Iran, wearing rabbit furs for cloths and scratching our lice infested armpits. Stockpile the heck out of food. Grain first. Years and years worth per person. Then add your beans. If any time remains after that, then the tasty, more nutritious items. Don’t wait for the kitty to get to eight grand. Go to the feed store and buy two hundred pounds each of whole wheat berries and corn. $100. Buy a $25 grain grinder from my Amazon page, www.bisonpress.com to get that link. Repeat repeatedly. For each family member. Soon enough, $100 will buy one loaf of bread. Get the grains before the rush.

When will we collapse? My best guess is June 2010, or August 2011 or 2012. Why? The first date is when I stop paying child support on my oldest. The second date is when my youngest is paid off if I keep doubling up on the payments to one child instead of keeping half what I pay now. The last date is when all my child support is finished. The fickle finger of fate will not allow me to keep the fruits of my labor ( please keep in mind that the ex makes four times my wages, on a job I put her through school for. My support is not for the children’s needs but as a punitive action towards me. Kindly excuse me if I feel ripped off ). You have been warned.
