7 Things To Buy In Case Of Shortages

We are just starting to see the global impact of the war in Ukraine. The worldwide shortage of petroleum, as countries refuse to permit Russian oil imports, has been driving gasoline and diesel fuel prices up for the last month, over and above the huge price increases that came with supply chain issues and the president's energy policies. 

But there’s much more to this picture than just high gas prices. Russia and Ukraine together account for something like 35% of the world’s wheat supply.

In addition, Ukraine and Russia are the two largest growers of sunflower seeds, and both contribute heavily to the world’s production of corn. US farmers depend heavily on Russian-produced potash, which is used in 92% of the fertilizer those farmers use...

The stagflationary collapse has arrived... here's what happens next

 

A deflationary collapse or an inflationary collapse... a stagflationary collapse. The reasons for this were very specific. Mass debt creation was being countered with more debt creation while many central banks have been simultaneously devaluing their currencies through QE measures. It was only a matter of time before the forces of deflation and inflation met in the middle to create stagflation.

 It is no coincidence that the culmination of the Fed's stimulus bonanza has arrived right after the incredible damage done to the economy and the global supply chain by the COVID lockdowns. It is no coincidence that these two events work together to create the perfect stagflationary scenario. And it's no coincidence that the only people who benefit from these conditions are proponents of the "Great Reset" ideology at the World Economic Forum and other globalist institutions. This is an engineered collapse that has been in the works for many years.

The goal is to "reset" the world, erase what's left of free-market systems and establish what they call the "Shared Economy" system. This system is one in which the people who survive the crash will be made utterly dependent on the government through Universal Basic Income and one that will restrict all resource usage in the name of "carbon reduction." According to the WEF, you will own nothing, and you will like it.

The collapse is engineered to create crisis conditions so frightening that they expect the majority of the public to submit to a collectivist hive-mind lifestyle with greatly reduced standards. This would be accomplished through UBI, digital currency models, carbon taxation, population reduction, rationing of all commodities and a social credit system. The goal, in other words, is complete control through technocratic authoritarianism.

All of this is dependent on the exploitation of crisis events to create fear in the population. Now that economic destabilization has arrived, what happens next? Here are my predictions:

The Fed Will Hike Interest Rates More Than Expected, But Not Enough To Stop Inflation

Today, we are witnessing the poisonous fruits of a decade-plus of massive fiat money creation, and we are now at the stage where the Fed will reveal its true plan. Hiking interest rates fast or hiking them slow. Fast hikes will mean an almost immediate crash in markets (beyond what we have already seen), slow hikes will mean a drawn-out process of price inflation and general uncertainty.

I believe the Fed will hike more than expected, but not enough to actually slow inflation in necessities. There will be an overall decline in luxury items, recreation commerce and non-essentials, but most other goods will continue to climb in cost. It is to the advantage of globalists to keep the inflation train running for a while.

In the end, though, the central bank will declare that the pace of interest rates is not enough to slow inflation and they will revert to a Volcker-like strategy, pushing rates up so high that the economy simply stops functioning altogether.

Markets Will Crash And Unemployment Will Abruptly Spike

Stock markets are utterly dependent on Fed stimulus and easy money through low-interest rate loans. This is a fact. Without low rates and QE, corporations cannot engage in stock buybacks. Meaning that the tools for artificially inflating equities are disappearing. We are already seeing the effects of this now with markets dropping 20 percent or more.

As far as jobs are concerned, Biden and many mainstream economists constantly applaud the low unemployment rate as proof that the American economy is "strong," but this is an illusion. COVID stimulus measures temporarily created a dynamic in which businesses needed increased staff to deal with excess retail spending. Now, the COVID checks have stopped, and Americans have maxed out their credit cards. There is nothing left to keep the system afloat.

Businesses will start making job cuts throughout the last half of 2022.

Price Controls

I have no doubt that Joe Biden and Democrats will seek to enforce price controls on many goods as inflation continues, and there will be a handful of Republicans that will support the tactic. Price controls actually lead to a reduction in supply because they remove all profits and thus all incentives for manufacturers to keep producing goods. What usually happens at that point is the government steps in to nationalize manufacturing, but this will be substandard production and at a much lower yield.

In the end, supplies are reduced even further, and prices go even higher on the black market because no one can get their hands on most goods anyway.

Rationing

Yes, rationing is going to happen, so be sure to buy what you need now before it does. Rationing occurs in the wake of price controls or supply chain disruptions, and, usually, this coincides with a government propaganda campaign against "hoarders."

They will hold up a few more exaggerated examples of people who buy truckloads of merchandise to scalp prices on the black market. Then, not long after, they will accuse preppers and anyone who bought goods before the crisis of "hoarding" simply because they planned ahead.

Rationing is not only about controlling the supply of necessities and thus controlling the population by proxy; it is also about creating an atmosphere of blame and suspicion within the public and getting them to snitch on or attack anyone that is prepared. Prepared people represent a threat to the establishment, so expect to be demonized in the media.

Be Ready, It Only Gets Worse From Here



It might sound like I am predicting the success of the Great Reset program, but I actually believe the globalists will fail. That's not going to stop them from making the attempt. Also, the above scenarios are only predictions for the near term (within the next couple of years). There will be many other problems that stem from these situations.

Naturally, food riots and other mob actions will become more commonplace, perhaps not this year, but by the end of 2023 they will definitely be a problem. This will coincide with the return of political unrest in the U.S. as leftist factions, encouraged by globalist foundations, demand more government intervention in poverty. At the same time, conservatives will demand less government interference and less tyranny.

At bottom, the people who are prepared might be called a lot of mean names, but as long as we organize and work together, we will survive. Many unprepared people will not survive. Understand that the economic conditions ahead of us are historically destructive; there is no way that serious consequences can be avoided for a large part of the population, if only because they refuse to listen and take proper steps to protect themselves.

The denial is over. The crash is here. Time to act if you have not done so already.

To truth and knowledge,

Brandon Smith

mistakes of food storage
If you are going to store food, make sure that the food you store is adequate for the need you and your family anticipate. This may not be as easy to achieve as many people think, because the facts are that most people make serious errors when storing food errors that will come back to haunt them when the food they’ve stored is the only thing that stands between them and their empty, dissatisfied, bellies.

Natural disasters don't wait for a convenient time

And you shouldn't wait to prepare either. In some cases there is little to no warning.

Prepare now to lessen the impact of disasters and emergencies

 

Remember:  You can’t buy life insurance after you’re dead!

When you think about packing up items to help you survive a natural or human-made disaster, you often think of backpacks. And there is good reason.

Backpacks are sturdy, lightweight, and with multiple pouches and pockets, they allow you to stow a large number of essentials. They come in expandable widths and sizes to fit even your smallest family members. And the best part is that your hands remain free with a backpack.

How many citizens are taking heed or paying attention to how the Biden Admin is screwing America? Too many seem oblivious-we need to oust these incompetent socialist gender bending rats from our nation starting in DC, our schools & media!

Sure am happy we've followed your advice over the years and stockpile food, etc. It sure paid off better than a bank account or the stock market.
