The price hikes represent the reality of shortages in just about everything. Violence starts when shelves are empty. It is my understanding that a huge target during a national emergency due to shortages of food will be citizens they will label as food hoarders. I am still looking for the official authority that lets the government redistribute food. I am hearing that is part of the plan. If that is the case, I will be caching my critical stores. It's wise to have a plan and cache sites predetermined should the situation warrant it. I am thinking 5 gallon buckets with gamma lids, mylar bags, etc. I estimate I will need around 40 of them.

I have my spreadsheet created and automated with all inventory and coordinates for each. I also have rotation schedules and can run scenarios regarding caloric intake and it will let me know exactly what I need additionally for any period of time. This I keep encrypted. Also physical gold and silver, hardware crypto wallet, and the means to defend it. Plans are solid and reality injected in them to determine when I move to the next phase.

I am prepping bulk food storage now along with freeze dried foods. I estimate that after the caching, I can load the rest and be on the road to my bugout location in 3 hours. I doubt I will be hard pressed for time, but it is good to know the minimum required if bugging in is not an option.

We are allied with neighbors around our home and also at my bugout location for mutual support and defense. My brother's neighboring ranches are all taking this serious as well. Farmers and livestock ranchers are ALWAYS a target during shortages.

I hope I will not have to execute the plan, but I sleep better knowing we are ready if need be. The situation determines the action. To give one an indication on how fast situations develop, study how fast Venezuela went to crap. That will give you a pretty realistic general measure of how quickly things deteriorate once the public begins to panic.

If anybody will be caching, it is important to know what works, and all of the considerations. I recommend the Youtube channel of the Tactical Rifleman. One of his videos covers time tested military methods of caching:


They can have my food after they take every last round I have at high speed

I’m not a green guy but we have an electric push mower that we use to harvest food for the rabbits. I have a solar panel set up to charge a battery that charges the mower. Feed is the weakest point of any homestead I would think.


Most of the push mowers in the stores I have been in are now electric. Theres a few gas push mowers but a majority of the selections are now electric.

My eyes are wide open and I see the same. It does not look good. I suspect what we are seeing is planned and nothing accidental about it. Create the crisis to throw people in fear and hunger and they will accept anything to make the pain go away. The problem is that does not work as well in the US because of the 2nd Amendment which scares the crap out of politicians. Just ask Lindsey Graham that told DC police to use their guns on unarmed citizens in the Capitol. Then there is Mitch that referred to the protestors as insurrectionists just a couple of weeks ago. I get the feeling that most politicians in the DNC and GOP do not work for us. They work for their donors to include the Chinese, that funded their campaigns and now OWN them.
We have survived many challenges as a nation, and a people. I don't think anyone will ever be able to take us by force of arms, but this challenge is taking us down by controling our minds! Abramham Lincoln once said," All the armies of the world, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio River in a trial of 1000 years. If we fall it must come from within!" How do we fight that?

Because the gas mowers were SOLD and those stupid electric ones are left.






US survived the Great Depression and WWII because people were self sufficient. They grew and canned most of their food.
The industrial complex was able to quickly convert manufacturing to support the military. Ever see a firearm made by Singer?

Civil War, the North defeated the South because of industrialization


Few today know how to can, how to grow food, how to raise, slaughter, process meat.
Very little manufacturing, all MADE overseas, just ASSEMBLED here.


Media spreads lies. Half are too stupid to see what is happening vs what they are being told.

We are doomed. 2A will prolong the indvitable, but them Nation is doomed.


The growing season is just beginning. (next year's food). Fuel, seed, fertilizer, chemicals are up 200-400%. What does that mean to food cost, next winter?
Many areas are in a drought or had irrigation ceased? What does that do to food supplies and cost? Small farmers are planting nothing. What does that do to supplies and cost? War? Effect on food supplies? Puppets in goobermint, intent on destroying us?

Wake up

Its to late we are in a world of hurt you just don’t know it yet.
I fear we have been duped by the same people that took over Venezuela. In fact I supect Venezuela was a trial run for us, they even used the same voting machines! if that is true, then all we need to do is look at what happened, and how it happened to Venezuela, to see what is coming here! Venezuela had 1,000,000 percent inflation per year, for several years. That totally destroyed their civilized society, and reduced them to a dog eat dog mentality! They went from the richest nation in South America with the highest standard of living, to the POOREST woth the lowest standard of living, in about 20 years of UTOPIAN SOCIALIST LEADERSHIP, all while having huge mineral deposits, and the largest proven reserves of Crude Oil! Communist China has started OPENLY started exploiting these natural resources just sinse our COUP, and that tells me WHO was behind their FALL, RIGHT? In my opinion we find ourselves in a heck of a mess, and half the population still think the news media is on our side, can you believe that? If Communist China CONTROLS ALL OF OUR NEWS MEDIA, by buying news media stocks, and controlling the news corporations, and half the population BELIEVES them, How do we fight that?

Its more than China though its the WEF, in reality all of it leads to the World Economic Forum even Xi Jinping they all believe in socialist/communist world view. And one day on the not to distant future there will be battle for control of the WEF thus the world……. But you are correct we are next in line for the fall.
