CONCLUSION
An old Japanese proverb applies: “preparation does not guarantee success, but the lack of preparation guarantees failure.”
I will tell you straight up, the global famine is coming, there’s no way to stop it. It WILL happen, I am 100% certain of this. Do you remember when COVID hit, everyone finally realized they needed to hit the local CostCo or Walmart or whatever, and stock up on food and toilet paper? People punching each other out for a bottle of hand-sanitizer or a 4-roll package of butt-wipe? Or even better, the buyer behavior of people trying to get ‘deals’ on Black Friday, right after Thanksgiving? Riots, shootings, the whole shebang of crazy behavior…? Multiply that by 100, for everyone wanting to get FOOD. I figure the crowds will start to figure it out by mid-May… earlier if we’re unlucky, later if we are lucky… but the mob-mentality of people trying to buy food before the shit hits the fan, will cause the shit to hit the fan… Food riots, all of it.
I also will state with absolute certainty, that the dollar collapse in imminent. It may be within days, weeks or within a few months. I seriously doubt we’ll make it to the November elections before it really kicks off. IF the dollar collapse happens more or less at the same time people are scrambling to stock up on food, it will get to a level of ugliness that people haven’t seen since at least WW2. And not just Americans, but everyone in the Western world- having lived a life of relative prosperity- are in for a brutal awakening to reality.
Do whatever you can to prepare, while you still have time. Food, water, storing your purchasing power, and weapons to defend your loved ones. Remember, your mental fortitude will be the biggest determinant on whether you make it or not. MENTALLY prepare yourself.
Time for Victory Gardens again. If every home owner in America with a yard grew a small garden for food it would cut demand from grocery stores for produce significantly. Our family had a 20 x 20 garden a few years ago, and we rarely purchased produce that year.
Agreed....victory gardens are the way....and vacuum sealers....and pressure canners
All of these statements were made last summer too, in case you forgot, by about a thousand other Wordpress blogs.
Terrifying predictions about economic and other crashes are made every year, yes. I remember them from decades ago. Sometimes they do prove out -- the internet crash around the turn of the century, the economic calamity of 2008 are two examples -- but so far, at least in the States and in my lifetime, nothing on the order of what is being forecast now. There are in fact MANY situations pointing in the same direction right now, and I'm inclined to believe a real disaster is in the works, but . . . I've been wrong before. I hope I am now as well. We'll see.
