How to Cook Emergency Food When the Power Is Out

13 Things to Do Before the Economy Collapses

A lot of people realize that they need to have emergency food stockpiled in case of an emergency.

However, a lot of people don’t think about how they will cook that emergency food when the power is out, and conventional stoves won’t work.

To make sure you can actually use your emergency food, you’ll need to have an emergency stove too.*--See below for our Vesta Stove deal...

There are multiple options, but it’s important that you understand the pros and cons of each as well as safety concerns.

Be prepared for anything with our free checklist. Download our Free Emergency Preparedness checklist today and rest easy knowing that you'll be able to cook your food no matter what happens.

Bulk Dog Food Savings

We save some money on dry pet food by purchasing the larger bag and freezing part of it until we need it. The larger bags are often less expensive per pound than the smaller bags. We put excess dry food in zipper bags or plastic freezer containers. It stays fresh for months. When we need it, we just take it out and let it thaw for an hour or two.

Here are some more ways to save on dog food.

13 Things to Do Before the Economy Collapses

I once shared an article on Facebook about the potential for an economic collapse in the near future, and someone left a comment saying, “Why do I keep hearing this warning over and over for years, and yet nothing ever happens?” Good question. When people keep saying that the sky is falling and it never does, it’s hard not to be skeptical.

As I said in my response to him, “After the stock market crash in 2008, everyone started claiming an economic collapse was about to happen, but what they didn’t realize is that it DID happen… in 2008. Since then, the economy has slowly been recovering. But the systemic problems that led to the crash were never corrected, and the bubble has been re-inflating. It can’t re-inflate forever.”

To stop the economy from completely collapsing into chaos, the Federal Reserve had to print huge sums of money to prop up Wall Street. Then they had to do it again during the Covid recession. But every time they do this, they print even more money than before, and the bubble re-inflates and gets even bigger. The larger it gets, the larger the next crash will be...

Preparedness 101: The Ultimate Survival Checklist

If you are new to prepping, you should take some time to research and think about how to approach the topic of preparedness. It’s an emotional subject, but emotional decisions often miss the mark or lead us to overreact. It’s easy to spend too much on the wrong things without taking some time to ponder, plan, and prepare.

We’ve assembled an outstanding team of experts on the subject of emergency preparedness, and their experiences and insights are captured here across a range of subjects. Each section invites you to read more with direct links to articles, videos, and lists put together by these accomplished preppers.

It’s easy to grab a list of all of the things you should acquire. In fact, it’s too easy. Lists can become a blur and we may find we’ve spent money on things we don’t need, or live in an area where items are unnecessary because hurricanes don’t happen in the Rocky Mountains and blizzards don’t happen in the desert...

Getting Your Pantry Organization to the Next Level

As preppers, we are good at preparing for the worst and collecting supplies to help us survive if SHTF. However, that doesn’t automatically make us great organizers—and you need to know where everything is in an emergency so you can grab what you need.

And that's just the tip of the prepper pantry iceberg, keeping an unorganized pantry can leave you missing essential supplies and leaving expired food in your stock.

To help you clean up those messy pantries we put together a pantry organization guide to assist anyone with their disorganized prepper pantries.

We've never had an unbiased press; freebies for better living

A Digest of Urban Survival Resources

We've never had an unbiased press-it should remain a free press

A recent Rasmussen poll tells us that 62 percent of likely voters "think the problem of bias in the news media is getting worse."

That's a big laugh to any sober person. Why on earth do the other 38 percent think there is, or ever was, any objectivism in the first place?

Alexander Hamilton used a newspaper, the Gazette of the United States to prop himself up and excoriate his enemies — most notably John Adams and later Thomas Jefferson.

The Gazette of the United States began publication on April 15, 1789, a month before the Constitutional Convention. Editor John Fenno used the publication to promote Washington and gave Hamilton a forum for promotion of self and later promotion of a national bank, his politics (Hamiltonianism, which was British mercantilism or crony capitalism), his friends for political office, and to denigrate his political enemies and Jefferson's actions as Secretary of State.

While he was Secretary of the Treasury, Hamilton used the Gazette as a house organ for the Treasury Department and in turn supported the paper with money from the Treasury Department in the form of "advertising." He also leaned on friends and business associates to purchase ads in the paper in exchange for "favors" from the government.

To counter Hamiltonianism, which Jefferson rightly saw as an assault on individual liberty, he — with James Madison's assistance — recruited another well-known editor named Philip Freneau to publish a paper named the National Gazette in 1791. Jefferson even put Freneau on the State Department payroll to supplement his salary.

Over most of the next decade, the two papers went after one another and their benefactors tooth and thong, with the National Gazette revealing an adulterous affair between Hamilton and Maria Reynolds, and the Gazette of the U.S. eventually printing stories of a relationship between Jefferson and slave Sally Hemings.

The national press has changed little over the years. Elites have used it to start wars, tear down their enemies and prop up others. They've used it to plunder and pillage.

Unbiased?

One of the great deceptions of our time is the idea that there is, or has ever been, objectivity in journalism. Granted there are some naïve, young journalists who enter the field aiming to remain neutral and objective in all aspects. But those altruistic motives are quickly co-opted, often without the journalist even realizing it, by the propaganda from the sources covered, by management, by funders (advertisers), by conventional wisdom and by the herd mentality.

So "objective media" is really just a code word for the agenda of the state.

Today, all national mainstream media are controlled by six mega-corporations. But there has never been an objective media in the U.S., and it's doubtful there has ever been one in the history of the world. During the Revolutionary War, there were newspapers supporting and newspapers opposing the revolution that printed either "facts" or "propaganda" depending upon which side the reader supported.

Newspaper editors in colonial and early United States times thought it their duty to society to give voice to the ideas in which they believed. To muzzle themselves or others who held the same opinions would have seemed nonsensical to them.

The early newspapers, broadsheets and pamphlets gave voice to the ideas of Revolution. It's not a stretch to say that the Revolution would not have been possible if newspapers had focused more on being "objective" and less on being intentionally contrarian, if not provocative or even incendiary.

Opinions vary, but only with a free press

Both truth and dissent — which may or may not be the same thing — are like kryptonite to the power elite. The Founders understood this. They also understood that propaganda was a powerful tool, but that it could be overcome only by allowing a free press.

A thought here on psychological warfare: Since the American system poses as an "open society" with a "free press," there is the pretension to allow open debate, but only on spurious issues. The effect is that as long as the issues are not real or are spurious they are welcomed and promoted as open debate and commentary. The people do not have a clue that all public commentary is spurious.

What then is the issue that even very savvy commentators fail to understand or even mention?

The problem is that all of them are trying to see and understand the American system as free enterprise when in fact it has been corporatist for a hundred years.

All is a disgrace before God, as my mother used to say, that the human race will allow itself generation after generation to be twisted and perverted like animals to the slaughter and precious few ever question "why" about anything. In fact the more learned and "educated," the less capacity to think outside the prescribed system, especially when learning the "facts" from the "free press."

In The Founding Father's Guide to the Constitution, author Brion McClannahan writes that the drafters spent little time debating most 1st Amendment freedoms because they almost unanimously agreed they were all essential for a free people. Still, some saw not giving the idea of a free press a mention in the document as a grave oversight.

This is why I continue to write to you and why I hope you find these Alerts valuable. We are not a newspaper, but I agree with the sentiments toward a free press of Richard Henry Lee, who wrote that "A free press is the channel of communication as to mercantile and public affairs; by means of it the people in large countries ascertain each other's sentiments; are enabled to unite and become formidable to those rulers who adopt improper measures. Newspapers may sometimes be the vehicles of abuse, and of many things not true; but these are small inconveniences, in my mind, among many advantages."

Yours for the truth,
