Globalists are burying the USA-The "Middle-Class Massacre”
The coming resource wars: What can the
individual do now?
The current global powers — the United States,
China and Russia — are making up plans and adding to their armies for future
use that will have none of the political dogma that was a part of the past 100
years. It will be about survival — securing supplies. Fresh water is already a
growing global concern; and without plentiful water, food stocks will draw
down.
The world population increased from 1 billion in
1800 to around 8 billion today. And even though the growth rate declined from
around 2 percent per year 50 years ago to under 1.0 percent per year — it is
now estimated that it will take 40 years for the world's population to increase
by another 50 percent — we will still have some 9 billion people by 2037. That
is another billion people added over the next 15 years.
As this growth multiplies upon itself, the
finite resources of the Earth are stretched so far that the last war fought by
humankind will be over the same things the first war was fought over: water,
shelter and food.
Real
Clear World put these numbers in context: "The 4 billion people
presently surviving on the equivalent of $5 a day or less won't be content to
live at subsistence level for the rest of their lives. Lifting them up will
take more — much more — of everything, as the average person living in the
industrialized world today consumes or uses 40,000 pounds each year of metals,
from aluminum to zinc, and more than 70 elements in between."
I have spoken with agronomists who say that in
order to support population increases, the world will have to quadruple its
agriculture production and increase its energy output by a factor of eight.
Some 160 years after the Industrial Revolution
commenced, man is drinking dry the Earth's wellspring. The end result could be
the collapse of civilization and the loss of civil liberties.
Global populations could be so greatly reduced
that the nation-state may find an excuse to use sweeping powers. Society could
eventually revert to the breakdown that prevailed during the Dark Ages, where
fundamentalist religions and local despots dominated human existence.
[Globalist finances are making us
all poorer…it extracts wealth to benefit the few. Free enterprise actually helped build the
Middle Class for nearly 100 years].
Will today's inflation and supply chain problems
lead to extreme food shortages as the population increases? There will
inevitably be a shortage of food if any disaster occurs, for sure, so why not
be prepared in any case?
This didn't use to be an issue, as expert David
Morris wrote, "The titles 'survivalist' and 'prepper' would have seemed
redundant a couple of generations ago. When the Greatest Generation was
growing up, preparedness was simply a way of life. Before
the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid
and other Federal aid programs were around, people knew that they had to be
able to take care of themselves in the event of natural and manmade
disasters."
"At the core, that's what survivalists and
preppers are. They are people who are aware that life is full of uncertainty
and who have decided to put things into place for when bad times happen."
"With the Constitution and Bill of Rights,
our Founding Fathers pushed responsibility from the Federal government down to
the individual citizen and promoted a survivalist/prepper mentality. They did
it with the 2nd and 4th Amendments, they did it by example (Washington leading
a mostly barefoot army across the Delaware), and they did it throughout their
writing."
At the very least, start storing canned and
packaged foods immediately. Once a foundation of at least a week's worth of
food is established, continue to build your stores until you have at least a
month's worth of canned and packaged goods that you and your loved ones
actually like and will eat. After you have a month's worth of food stored,
start looking at long-term freeze-dried or dehydrated food-storage options to
supplement your stash.
Having a week's supply of water on hand is
great, but you will need to be able to get more when you run out. You should
know at least a couple of potential water sources nearby and have a plan to
purify it
Morris adds that the "survival" mentality will also help
our country in general as resources become more scarce:
"The more self-reliant you are, the less control the
government can exert over your life. In addition to living a lifestyle that
insulates them, survivalists and preppers are usually well-armed and seek
advanced training … After a local, regional or national disaster, the number of
refugees will be inversely proportional to the number of preppers and
survivalists in the area. In other words, the more preppers you have in an
area, the less strain the hospitals, volunteer organizations and government-run
refugee centers will have.
"You're not going to see very many refugees donating their
food, supplies or time. It's not that they don't want to, but rather it's
because they are in a fight for their lives and may be dehydrated, hungry and
tired.
"Preppers and survivalists who have food storage, water or
water-treatment tools and who have prepared themselves psychologically for
disasters will be able to help in several ways. First, they are less likely to
become refugees or use the time and resources of first responders. Second,
since they are prepared for disasters, they can help the people in their
immediate area, which will lessen the load on first responders and reduce the
number of refugees. Third, by helping themselves and their neighbors, preppers
will increase the quality of care for people who do need first
responder care or who need to relocate to a refugee center.
"In short, the more survivalists and preppers we have, the
more stable our families, cities and the country as a whole are."
The harsh reality is... you never know how bad things will get
over the next 15 years and you never know how long the hard times will last.
The only way to guarantee that we survive is to be prepared.
I encourage everyone who is able to acquire seeds
and grow vegetables in a home garden…
NOTE:
The world where freedom of religion, let alone freedom of
speech, is now regarded by some (many?) as a problem for a free society rather
than a basic foundation of the same is indeed a strange new world.

Could You Survive?
Every time you turn on the news or get on the
internet, you are bombarded with images of one disaster or another. Sometimes
it is a tornado, hurricane or earthquake and other times, it is civil unrest
that is wreaking havoc. Then there are the terrorists that are always working
hard to make this world an unpleasant and uncertain place to live.
With so much strife in the world, it only makes sense you would take action
to prepare for the inevitable to strike your little corner of the world.
Most people always assume it will never happen to them or where they live.
Living in a bubble or burying your head in the sand isn't going to help matters
when disaster does strike. We have seen the evidence mounting over the past
couple of years. Our electricity grids are vulnerable. We could very well find
ourselves living in a very dark world. Could
you survive?
