Unlike our recent wars which were fought mostly over oil, this next war will be fought over a much more precious commodity...DRINKING WATER! 

NASA recently warned that we're facing a "once in 1,000 year" mega-drought that could last up to 100 years.

Unfortunately, the drought is already underway and most Americans will be BLINDSIDED by the coming impacts to their way of life.

As you know, we need water for hydration, but we also need it for growing crops and for generating electricity.

NOTE: When I lived in AZ aquafiers were being drained at an alarming rate for new housing developments, golf courses, office buildings, etc...in MI, which is surrounded by the largest fresh water supply on eath, area governments GOUGE the public with high usage rates [we pay $3K annually for two of us -no horses!]

10 Ways To Collect Water After SHTF

Everyone knows the importance of water in a survival situation. You can only survive without it for three days, but you’ll feel severely dehydrated after just one.

This is why water needs to be one of your biggest priorities. You should stock up on two gallons per day per person, but you should also know how to find water.

Why? Because disasters happen when you least expect, and you could be away from home when the next one strikes. Or worse, your home—along with your water supply—could be destroyed...

3 Ways To Turn Salt Water Into Drinking Water

“Water, water, everywhere, And all the boards did shrink; Water, water, everywhere, Nor any drop to drink.”

These famous lines from Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s 1798 poem “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” remind us of one of the cruel ironies about living on Planet Earth. Although water covers 75 percent of our planet, more than 97 percent of it is undrinkable salt water.

Consuming large amounts of salt water is toxic to the human body. Experts estimate that for every gallon of salt water you drink, you’d need to drink a least a gallon of fresh water to allow the kidneys to do the job of flushing the salt out of your body...

Personal Politics Are Public Poison

There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.'”

—Isaac Asimov

Governments are a necessary evil.

 

But they always want control… more and more control.

 

How?

 

Well… any single way they can get away with it.

 

-forcing people to wear masks

 

-forcing people to jump through a million hoops for the right to bear arms

 

-trying to force their teachings down children’s throats instead of letting the parents raise the kids

 

-buying votes by giving people free college, free Obama phones, free stimulus checks so people become utterly dependent on the government.

 

Of course, I could go on and on and on.

 

With the coming year, keep an eye on your freedom and don’t be fooled by the government.

 

Don’t be the frog in the pot of boiling water.

 

The government loves the slow and slippery slope to get people to comply.

 

But people like you and me who truly love freedom will never fall for their ploys.

 

After all, we know the Constitution and this nation was inspired of God.

The Ultimate Guide To Cooking Without Power

 

It's funny how cooking without power is regarded as a survival skill when for thousands of years, it was the only way to cook. Not long ago, there was no such thing as toasters, microwaves, and electric ovens, yet people still managed to cook big, delicious meals for their families.

If they could do it, so can you! There's no reason to be intimidated by the prospect of cooking without electric appliances. It's easier than you think.

For most people, the only way they've ever cooked without power is with a grill or a campfire. But in this dangerous and unpredictable world, it's important to have more options than that. What if you run out of propane? What if you can't find any firewood? What if you have to cook on the road? You should always have a backup, and a backup for your backup...
