Here's my thinking:
If something is about to break, if a take down is nearing, if we are nearing zero hour we could be reaching the apex of a dangerous time.
"America has been sailing on a summer sea. But now there are storm clouds on the horizon, and now no longer distance, a time of mist and shadows wherein danger may be concealed whose form and magnitude we can scarcely conjecture." - Lord Brice, American Commonwealth 1888.
The cabal, the power hungry self indulged masters of the world, aided by Satan himself, have a well developed power structure, and very near unlimited resources. They would not balk at killing billions, or throwing the USA into a state of chaos to accomplish their ends, if they can.
If ever you were waiting for a trigger event that told you now is the time to prepare, to stock up needed supplies, to gather what you need to maximize your chance of survival, that time is now. And most important of all, now is the time to get yourself right with God, and strive everyday to strengthen your faith, and knowledge of God truths as written in the Holy Scriptures, for truly:
"THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.
Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph.
What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated."
Thomas Payne.
Yeah I hear you, it's especially crazy when NZ for example is held up there as one of the best quality beef producers!
So I get the impression that you're seriously concerned by this? I'm trying to entertain these ideas and it makes sense but I just can't seem to convey the possibility to anyone who I've talked about it with.
It's hard to convince average pedes that we are at the beginning of an Ice Age. They have been gobbling up the Warming narrative for nearly 40 years. The big sea-change happened after Al Gore's movie in the eighties.
You'll here narrative like: "Oh it will only cancel out the man-made warming a little bit." And then continue with the Carbon-zero policies. (Rolls eyes).
We have made sure our house will be warm, insulation, heat-pump etc. if there is a power-cut we have a back-up woodfire.
I don't know how to store food for the next fifty years, though.
I'm definitely not an expert so I'm not saying this will work but have you looked into hydroponics, we may be able to grow some food easily enough indoors with grow lights etc.
Have you got or considered getting a freeze drier? They run like $3-4k and people seem to have an expectation that the food will last at least 30 years. I'm yet to get myself some bulk rice and beans storage.
I'm sure there are a fair amount of us who see the mini ice age issue looming, after all Trump mentioned that it'll be getting cooler 'It will start getting cooler' so it's not like the idea is totally foreign.
