It's strange to feel too. The strange deja vu from time to time. The vivid dreams that fill my nights and give me endless amounts of insomnia. The feeling of something coming. Something in the future that isn't here yet but is unrelenting in its travel and destination.
Perhaps it's an extension of 80's Cold War paranoia preparation culture but it's real. Not just for me either. I firmly believe that there is a great many people that feel the same, something is coming because our country and culture cannot survive living like this.
Our corrupt politicians have bankrupted the country for personal gain. It's Super Bowl Sunday right now, the Chiefs and the Niners are going to kick off soon and the country will watch. This distraction will keep America entertained while the world burns. Normally I'd be watching right along and enjoying the event.
I can't. I've got a purpose. I've got to prepare. I want you to prepare.
Here's how.
Food preservation. We can't do much about gas, water, or electric but we can concentrate on food for survival. If you have a garden, you're ahead of the game. The past couple of years I've seen up close and personally how fragile our supply chain is. I've shopped or delivered over 2500 runs for Spark. The pandemic changed everything. Now just the hint of bad weather will fill the stores with shoppers trying to provide for their families because they are unprepared. Our food supply is perilous, don't bet your future on it.
I don't want that for my family or friends. I want us to be prepared. I want YOU to be prepared as well.
Learn about bushcraft. Learn basic mechanical skills. I don't expect you to rebuild a 350 but knowing you can will benefit you. Learn to shoot, learn to shoot accurately in any condition. Learn to handle a knife, an axe, anything you think may help you later on.
Buy a freeze dryer. You can buy freeze dried meals already but the cost of a new or used freeze dryer will pay for itself in a very short amount of time. There is plenty of price comparisons out there to judge for yourself. Get to know your neighbors, help them prepare too. Tell your friends, family, anyone you don't want to see starving in a few years.
Food is sky high now, wait a couple more years when the climate change terrorists clamp a stranglehold on food production because of co2 or anything else they say will be a problem. If that living cadaver John Kerry gets his way or that idiot Greta that dropped out of school instead of actually learning science and stuff then they firmly believe that the planet is over populated. And guess what? You are not the elite they intend to protect and save.
Good food will be expensive or scarce. If the climate crazies get their way, and they might, it could be a luxury eventually. Be at the mercy of events outside your control or prepare yourself. I live in a state that every 5-10 years we get a storm that will take our power out for a day or more from damage. I plan on going on several solo camping trips and a supply of freeze dried foods take up little space and have little weight.
Start freeze drying soups, meats, vegetables, fruits. Learn about it, it's affordable now to get a freeze dryer in your home now. One company called Harvest Right. Look into them. YouTube is your friend for research on this. Figure out your own system to helping your family and friends. Maybe every couple of weeks full day of food prep with everyone together and then again for the storage preparation. It can be a fun event, you are investing in your future wellbeing.
This isn't politics, this isn't liberal vs. conservative. More realistically this is the ruling class elites vs. you and your family.
What are you going to do?
For me and mine, I just told you.
