    In a speech at Ivy Tech Community Collage in Indiana President Obama couldn’t have been more proud of the work he’s accomplished over the last several years. Citing official statistics like lower deficits and higher employment he says that 2015 is going to be a another good year.

    If there were ever a contra-indicator for how the state of the union will be now that the “shadow of crisis has passed,” this is it:

    We’ve come a long way these past six years, since we suffered the worst financial crisis since the great depression.

    This morning we found out that America’s businesses added another 267,000 jobs. In 2014 our economy created more than 3.1 million jobs and that’s the best year of job growth since the 1990’s. So all told, over the past 59 months the private sector has added about 11.8 million jobs. That’s the longest streak of private sector job growth in our history.

    Meanwhile, our deficits are shrinking… they’ve gone down by about two-thirds. Our dropout rates are down… Our graduation rates are up. We’re as free of foreign oil as we’ve been in 30 years… We’ve doubled the amount of clean energy that we’re producing… A lot of families are saving a lot of money at the gas pump, which is putting some smiles on folks’ faces.

    And in the single most hopeful sign for middle class families, wages are starting to go up again.

    So, America is poised for another good year.

    While it’s easy to pick and choose stats and present them to college students and faculty whose heads couldn’t stop bobbling in agreement, the reality is starkly different from what President Obama has suggested is the case.

    As a basic example of the outright conjecture being spewed by our Commander-In-Chief, consider the claim that 3.1 million jobs were created last year. Karl Denninger blows that completely out of the water and shows just why these cherry-picked statistics only tell part of the story:

    population-corrected-employment

    This change in the working-age population, by the way, means the net job gains are now effectively zero over the last year; the entire last year’s gain is now only 218,000 jobs!

    Last month’s household employed number looked to be headed southbound, as did the previous month.  Well, now it’s strongly negative, but what’s worse is that it’s now negative on the household number three months running and at an increasing rate

    This is a crap report; all of the so-called “improvement” was due to outright lying via “seasonal adjustment” and what’s worse is that the BLS is now admitting that we put 600,000+ more people into the working age population group last year, almost certainly via illegal immigration, than is normal for a given year.

    While Americans’ wages did increase a supposed 2.2% in the past year, and the mainstream media claims that this increase stayed ahead of official inflation, the facts tell a slightly different story.

    According to shadowstats.com, the real inflation rate over the last year if we don’t use the government’s fuzzy math is actually closer to about 4.2%.

    inflationJan2015

    Thus, while President Obama claims rising wages are the single most hopeful sign for the middle class, what he failed to mention is that we actually lost about 2% of our purchasing power to monetary expansion.

    The notion that people now have all this extra money in their pockets because of lower gas prices is likewise laughable. Sure, prices dropped, but according to recent reports it means that hundreds of thousands of jobs are now at risk. Oil related businesses are laying people off and some are facing bankruptcy because of leveraged bets that have now gone horribly wrong. Should gas prices stay low for much longer there is a distinct possibility that all of President Obama’s purported job growth could be wiped out in one fell swoop.

    Furthermore, the last thing that Americans have on their faces right now are smiles, because those paltry gas savings that amount to roughly $600 per year are nothing compared to the massive premiums and penalties associated with the forced mandates wrought by Obamacare:

    health-care-costs-2014

    Are we all supposed to clap and thank the President for the $50 we save a month without considering the “affordable” rates we are now forced to pay for health care; rates that for many families exceed $1000 in monthly premiums on top of deductibles of $5000 or more?

    Moreover, if things are going so great right now in America, how is it that fully 19.8% of American households were dependent on the government to put food on their tables in 2014?

    food-stam-participation

    Last but not least, on the matter of deficits, it’s great that we’ve reduced those over the last couple of years. But what about this gigantic elephant in the room?

    national-debt

    That’s $18.1 Trillion in debt and in the amount of time it took you to review this article we added about $2 million bucks to the tab.

    If by “being poised for another good year” the President means we’re going to see our money lose purchasing power, fewer people in the workforce as a percentage of the population, a continued increase in our national debt, more defaults on student loans, and rising prices for food, energy and healthcare, then yes, you’d better get ready for the next Big (Ka)Boom!

    And by get ready, we mean you’d better have a preparedness plan that includes emergency cash, reserve food storage, essential supplies, and self defense armaments because when people realize just how “great” things are it’s going to get crazy.

      1. So now you’ve heard it, folks.

        Were doing great and it’s gonna get better.

        And don’t let anyone tell you different.

        • Yeah, so now I’m REALLY scared.

          • Every time you hear another piece of good news about our national economy ask yourself why do the fed’s continue to print 80 billion per month and why cannot they raise the interest rates?

            BigB

            • Yup Yup…. a chicken in every pot, or in the case of
              Owowie, some pot in every chicken.

              • Barrack , the majic negro
                lives in DC………

                I love Paul Shanklins stuff.

                • Hopefully the jig is up in 2016

                  IF we make it to 2016 & dont have a bankers war to distract the dumbass GDP.

                • Hopefully the jig is up in 2016

                  • I hate being in a zoo where a poo slinging monkey thinks he runs things.

                    • What surprises me is that the bankers think they are playing with other peoples money and that there is no consequences to their reckless behavior. They think that the taxpayer will continue to bail them out and allow this looting to continue. What they should be thinking is that middle class America is getting fed up with the circus and a revolt is coming. A revolt that is long overdue and will result in the end of this banking and political system.

                  • 2016, yea really think, it seems like I read on here that is was 2007-2008-2009-2010-2011-2012-2013-2014-2015, personally I think it will never happen or maybe 2030.

                    • No one really knows when it is going to happen but I believe most everyone thinks it is a matter of when, not if. I hope it is delayed as long as possible which will give me more time to prepare.

                    • Not to worry about what has or hasn’t brought the culmination of the horror we’ve all witnessed day-in/day-out over the course of years up to today. Understand it takes time to destroy life as we once knew it slow enough that folks don’t revolt. Now for the good news. 2015-2016 will see that horror come to fruition. Pray, prep and protect.

              • Or in Obama’s case a dog in every pot. Dog eating communist bastard.

            • OBUMMA IS DRUNK ON EGO.

              BREAKING NEWS: The Saudi Bush Family house of cards is now unraveling regarding who funded the attacks on 9-11. The Saudi’s funded the Hijackers, the Bush, Cheney and Powell Team funded the Taliban $43 Million just a few months prior to the 9-11 attacks.

              The secret 20 pages of the 9-11 Report are going to have to become public. Obama White house refusing to release it. And the American Public and the victims of 9-11 need the truth and be compensated by Saudi Arabia for these 9-11 Attacks. All of this Terrorism is phoney to fleece tax payers. I want to see George Bush and Cheney stand before a firing squad. Treason beyond the most despicable acts against our country. Oh lets see how the Election Fraud Jeb Bush plays out that propagated this Bush Traitor into the white house. Time to put Dick Cheney under oath and testify. And this is why Americans have no faith in our Government until these trator tyrants are fully exposed and put to death.

              • Anon, I couldn’t agree more. The African virus is no different from any other scum puppet who’s been in the WH and thinks he can preach to we the people on any subject? He doesn’t have a leg to stand on. He can go f#$% himself!

                • Hey RB. I’m Anon, forgot to type my name before I hit Submit. I will add that lying Condi Rice Buckwheat Mushroom Cloud fear monger needs to be waterboarded as well. You want to see terrorism end? Put these scumbags on trial for treason.

                  • WWTI, that’s OK, I still agree with your post.

              • always seemed odd to me that the so called patriot act was written 30 years earlier /they create the problem wait for a reaction then have the solution ready to go .so what is prewritten and ready to go now? nwo?agenda21? wonder what next prearranged crises is not going to go to waste?

                • What are the three things you can’t give a negro?

                  Looks like he has a black eye though hmmmm…
                  Maybe his boyfriend/wife punched him 🙂

                  • Oh and by the way, do any of you ever question who it was a good year for??? Hmmm? He never says who, most people just assume it was the united states citizens. I see a lot of that in speeches. People assume he’s talking about them but he’s not lying because he never said it was good for YOU! Observe this when these freaks talk, never assume unless they say it’s about YOU 😛

          • Everyone is good at something. With obamanation, it has to be telling a damn lie.

            • F – P,
              how about he is good at being EVIL !! and there is hope that he will be good at digging his own grave site!!

        • What Obama didn’t say was that the good year wont start until Jan 2016.

          • I think you mean 2017.

            • SHTF Training Film Series.- The Walking Dead New Season Starts This Sun Feb 8th 9pm EST on AMC Channel – Tomorrow Folks. Time to practice your “Quick Draw” Dry Firing.

              • Walking dead on AMC channel all day today as well.

          • No what he didn’t say is the same thing he did not say during his campaign. He did not define “change” and the media never asked him! And boy did the US get “change”.

            So what is his definition of “a good year”? Well look at what he has said in the past:
            He wants to destroy this nation compared to what it has been in the past.
            He wants a government run healthcare system and since he has not been allowed to put that in place he said he will put Obama care in place. He has uses this system in Chicago and it was a financial and medical nightmare. He said that eventually the people will hurt so bad from this system that they will scream for it to be removed and they will accept whatever is offered. How is it going so far?
            He wants us to be required to pay so much for home heating and driving that we can’t afford our current lifestyles and cut way back. He wants to remove infrastructure support for rural and suburban areas like roads, fire and police, which pushes us into densely packed urban areas where we are packed into the micro apartments that are rapidly being built in major cities around the country.
            He wants a to use the US military as a club to wage war around the world and he does not even involve Congress but rather gets his orders from ??? and the UN. He “does not want to wait for Congress to pass laws or agree” so he just writes his own laws. And despite this and the may other illegal activities he has engaged in while sitting as President he has remained free of any legal charges.
            He wants to live like a dictator over a country that he hates, gut it from the inside and leave it weak and unprotected so that foreign or local vultures can sweep in and gobble up what is left of the carcass.
            He wants to obliterate the personal freedom, patriotism, faith and community that the US of America stood for. He wants to replace it with a totalitarian communist police state that keeps the majority of Americans in financial bondage while protecting the lavish lives of a very few.
            Check, check, check. By his standards it has been several good years.

            • Great post CARA !
              Well said , that is exactly what the POS is up to .

          • JOE..If yo wait until 2016 you waited too long.

        • When you repeat a LIE enough people will start to believe it. And when you do believe it, that’s when the Elite LAUGHS at you.

            Had enough yet?

            Now what?

            • They are in as paupers, and out as multi-millionaires. They pass laws that excuse themselves. They can legally deal in insider trading that the rest of us would be tossed in jail for because they made the law. I am still surprised there hasn’t been a revolt yet…….

        • Yes indeed, another good year. For him and his cronies, that is. Certainly not for you and me. This is going to be a rough year for us.

        • “A lie told often enough becomes the truth.”
          ― Vladimir Ilich Lenin

          • …and that is the truth, when it comes to sheeple and the gov.

            For example, the unemployment rate lie, which gives the false sense of a growing economy.

            When folks that have given up on finding a job and can no longer qualify for unemployment benefits are not counted into the rate…..

            When college grads are not counted as unemployed because they never have worked and therefore can’t qualify for benefits; estimated to be about 25% of all graduates between the ages of 21 and 25, which puts the figure at near 2 million that isn’t counted…..

            When the college grads that are under-employed are not counted, which is about 50% and includes part timers and those that are in jobs that don’t require a college degree; which amounts to about another 3 million…..

            When the non college grad group between 18 and 25, that aren’t employed and aren’t counted because they never held a job previously, about another 15 million or so….

            When the seniors that are semi-disabled and can’t qualify for benefits, aren’t counted, which runs into the millions…….

            When all these numbers aren’t added into the rate, it becomes a statistical lie, because the true unemployment rate would be more like 20%, instead of 5%.

            Not even accounting for the undocumented illegals unemployed, that drain off the system, and fall under the statistical radar.

            Times are good, if you don’t look at the real numbers; like how much income is left for entertainment/vacation/savings, after paying for the basic requirements for everyday living.

            • Good post!!! Another thing that has been modified under 0bama it the number of new monthly jobs created to signify an expanding economy. Under Bush, the media constantly crowed that if the economy was not producing at least 330,000 new jobs a month, it would not even keep up with the new people entering the workforce each month. Now under this idiot, 267, new jobs in a month is massive job growth showing that the economy is booming!!! What a bunch of effin’ hypocrites….

        • A lot of you rednecks babble on about your gun collections and how you are going to get this and that.

          Guys, whatever pistol you train with is the one that you need to carry.

          Studies have shown that changing gun models leads to confusion in actual lethal encounters.

          There have been more gun accidents with guns with manual safeties than with modern types. Because people assume the safety is on and do stupid shit.

          • I’d say your statement is true regarding a neophyte. I train with all my AR’s and for instance my Sig556 is different regarding its safety and charging handle than my other ARs. Train with all you have and get it down to muscle memory especially during a stress involved shooting exercise.

            • POd Pat. Yeah I have a Sig 5.56 Swat. That lead thrower is a hellva machine. Piston driven means it does not shit where it eats. The Swiss know how to make weapons eh?

              • Yes they do. A little on the heavy side for an AR, but it runs without a hiccup. Its an early model. FCG is Swiss but the BCG is American.

                • Ditto. Had a 556 Russian Swat (7.62 x 39) for a couple years now. Indeed heavy, but ammo’s cheap ($5 per box of 20) and always dead on. Love to shoot it. Carry pistol is an M11-A1 w/Crimson Trace laser(Sig as well) 9mm. Goes on in the AM with my belt, stays there til the belt comes off at night. Practice weekly, sometimes just draw and dry-fire. Live in the woods so I can practice quick draw w/o annoying range master. Hope I never have to put those skills to the test, but I practice like it’s gonna happen tomorrow. Everyone should be able to draw and be on target without thinking, because when it happens you won’t be thinking.

                • Yeah, after I loaded up the Rails with all the high end toys, it is a bit heavy. So I decided that would be my GO-TO stationary hammer with the Bipod in the foxhole. Got the EoTech 556 holographic sights with the night vision and the 3.25 x scope. $1100 just for the optics. ha. True Night Vision is on my bucket list. Next month.

          • Time for mommy to put acid to bed and give him his meds.

            • Why would you say such a thing? His comment was informative, insulted no one, and for once contained almost no profanity.

              • Rebel,
                YUP i agree for once he wrote a nice article and should be told that!

                • Yea, but, he is still a goober smoocher and sodomite.

          • AE ,
            You are correct train with the pistol you intend to fight with until it becomes an extension of your body. Most likely this will be the one weapon along with a sturdy fixed blade knife ( Kbar , Randal no 1 ) that you may end up with during a high speed emergency egress .
            Train like you are going to fight and fight like you train . Prepare your body and mind to act as one with your weapon system.

            Semper Fi

            • My EDC is a Cold Steel Vaquero Serrated XL.

              Whenever we train we have to be dead serious.

              When I walk into the dojo I am laughing and joking with people. Then when it’s time to drill and spar we all have to act like its life and death because it reality it will be.

              • AE ,
                My EDC folder is a Siebert pocket rocket titanium . Small light very rugged at lot a people ask me about it because of its unusual build. Great knife rather expensive now .

          • AE, you need to train and become familiar with a variety of firearms, not just the one you carry. Familiarize yourself with what your enemies might carry. Because it might come one day to be theirs that you have to arm yourself with.

        • We can’t afford another one or two of these “good years.”

        • Prediction that NASA is now on red alert due to the risk of solar flares in the next year or so. They are also increasingly concerned about the rising risk of an EMP bomb due to global politics and the increase of radical enemies.

        • I thought they already were exempt!?

          • Dunno, Southron. Maybe we could ask Obama crony Jon Corzine

        • SIX –
          The whole reason we no longer have alot of small family farms is subsidies.
          These are for the big factory farms and the small operation seldom see’s anything other than crop protection .
          I say , throw it all out and let farm operations stand on their own.
          Just like any business , it needs to be profitable to sustain itself or be shuttered. Seems to obvious.
          BTW , Jon Bonjovi and Bruce Springtein collect farm subsidies because they have “organic” garden type operations in NJ .
          CROOKS !

          • Sixpack, one of my uncles who as a farmer and is now deceased, had to sell his farm 10 years ago because of the same federal BS.

          • Hammerhead, I agree 100%. But you must understand, we have to have Government Farm Programs because that is one of the Platforms in the Communist Manifesto. Trekker Out.

            • YEP MT, Damn sure is.
              But do ya think i could ever beat that into the heads of some of the crop farmers around me ? HELL NO!
              These guys get every damn bit of farm welfare (as i call it) that they can , new equipment every year and spend most of their time trying to figure out how to get the next government payment.
              They wouldnt be in business without handouts, most are not even profitable .
              This sorta shit will be a HUGE problem come SHTF .

              I have always held that free money aint free, sooner than later Uncle Sam will come callin , and these welfare farmers are gonna crap themselves!

              • Farm subsidies can easily become a weapon. If a certain farmer does not do as required, they pull the subsidy. Since the farm was not self-sustaining, it falls. The govt will take out the small family farms, leaving only the corporate owned behemoths.

                • Sixpack I’m quite aware of how these programs work. Along with the bait there is always a hook. At one time I had four farms proir to a divorce, none of which were adjoining to each other, anyhow I didn’t participate in farm programs until they came out with CRP which is a program where they pay you to set aside marginal land for a peroid of 10 years, so I put some land on ONE farm in the program. To make a long story short, after a couple of years they notified me that I had to put all my farms in a program that suited them, if not I not only had to withdraw from the CRP program but I would have to pay them back for the years I had already drawn pay for, which is pretty tough when you have already lost your income off that land and have to pay them back too. Trekker Out.

                  • BINGO ! MT-
                    CRP is just another Agenda21 bullshit land stealing tool they use.
                    I live in an area that is designated a “no go” area in the wildlands project , the folks around me that have moved land into that conservation program have found out that they cannot remove their land from the program.
                    But they still pay taxes !
                    HUH , Go figger , my point was made , take gov money and one day uncle sam comes callin .
                    But still , nobody is listeningto the warning…

                    • WRONG! CRP is absolutely necessary for wild game. It mandates that farmers not plow and plant all their land. They must leave some with long grass, windrows of trees, and maintained wetlands. Without these protections most farmers would plant every available acre, and species like pheasant would become virtually extinct in North America. Please do some research on the subject.

        • Six…Baby anything new today.

        • Six, These corrupt politicians all need to be hung. Not sure who is going to defend them in SHTF, as they think we are afraid of them. What a Joke!! Had a local parade here last weekend, our Congressional US Rep was in the parade riding in a convertible, I gave her 2 Tall Arm length high Middle Finger F-You’s as she rode by. She saw me. Lying scumbag. She and her cowards should be very afraid coming up. As the masses are plenty fed up with their Corrupt BS, fleecing our country for financial gain and robbing us of our freedoms. Every Law they pass is another right they take away. Think about it.

          • yup.

      2. Smoke and mirrors!!!!!!!!!!

      3. We all know that it won’t be to much longer before the great empire falls and it will be every man for himself, I agree with whT a lot of folks believe here except for the thought of haveing cash wouldn’t it be better to have supply’s insted of cash because I don’t think cash will be worth nothing but toilet paper

        • RMG,Hey I thought I saw you up in the Mountains. Maybe not. It could have just been a cloud. I would trade you a roll of TP for a 100 bill. Trekker Out.

          • MT. Dude, I think I would crap my pants to if I saw a ghost when trekking a mountain. SS Out.

        • Of course supplies are the most important, but some cash would be good to have in the first couple days of any SHTF. Before the sheep realize it, you could really increase your supplies, especially the things that won’t last forever because you won’t have many of them.

      4. Here, to Obama, “another good year” means 48 MILLION on food stamps, and 100 MILLION not working.

        Also means Michelle-Marie Antoinette Obama will get to take not one, but TWO uber-luxe vacations per month, on YOUR dime, dear taxpayer. I hear her next little soiree with just 800 of her closest corrupt Chicago cronies will be where she rents out Lichtenstein for a month, giving all residents (the “little people”) the heave-ho for the month.

        • I’d like to heave that ho…right out the window into the trash.

          • Sixpack, I would give her two bullets to the head and be done with it.

            • Becareful Cuz.

      5. And speaking of “good years,” while Cubans struggle on poverty wages, Forbes magazine, which annually compiles a list of the world’s richest people, detailed socialist Fidel Castro’s personal fortune a few years back, reported in Newsmax on March 17, 2005, at $$550 million. He also has a number of lavish homes throughout Cuba, and traveled until his health hit the skids exclusively in a convoy of black Mercedes Benzes. When confronted with this, of course, he noted that all of his money “belonged to the Cuban people” (right, Fidel…that’s why they are sleeping in all those hovels through the country…. and able to call on any of your limousines when a sick Cuban kid needs to get to a hospital, right?)

        As Orwell said, in the socialist workers paradise, we’ll all be equal…. only some of us will be “more equal” than others. Of course, Stalin, Mao, Mugabe, Pol Pot, Hilary, Geo Soros, all the Hollywierd Learjet leftists, ad nauseum could have told the proved that before to the unthinking left…. IF they would ever listen or learn. But, as Talleyrand once said about another era, but which would apply today’s leftists…. “they learned nothing and they forgot nothing.”

        Dr. Marvin Olasky reports, after a visit to Cuba a few years back, that the US allows humanitarian aid into Cuba, but of course it all goes to the privileged few. Cubans tell of a French NGO that donated toothpaste to go to the poor… only to find out it ended up in a US dollar store that the poor can’t even afford to step into. In fact, he says most Cubans have to REGULARLY break the law to buy needed food and health care on the black market… while of course the ruling elite have no such worries at all. It gets worse. Churches distribute medicine and material help to others (which isn’t getting to the poor as the goods are sucked up by the ruling oligarchy) – and then the socialist state threatens these churches with “severe sanctions” – SIMPLY FOR TRYING TO DO GOOD! Socialism can’t STAND the competition, even if it means others have to starve.

        • TEST, everything you posted about Cuba is true. And DON’T get me started about the Castros because I wouldn’t know how to stop. When Fidel finally dies, I will celebrate. My wife lost part of her family to Castro’s butchers.

        • The most wealthy of the Socialist countries is best seen in the city of Hong Kong, actually a country within a country.

          It boasts one of the wealthiest per capita incomes, and economic centers, after New York City and London, but, with the most severe income inequality.

          What most people don’t know is that Hong Kong was under British control until June 1997.

          • I would hardly characterize Hong Kong as a socialist city. And if you are from Vanouver, BC as I am, you are WELL aware of the transition date from UK rule

      6. … and then there is this apocryphal but instructive story that would well fit today’s limousine liberals, Learjet leftists, and rich Hollywierd socialists:

        In the story, Leonid Brezhnev’s ancient mother came for a visit once when he was leading the USSR. Leonid proudly showed off all that he had to her – multiple sumptuous dachas, a fleet of Zil limousines, marble floored and gold plated personal bathrooms, and so much wealth and possessions the average Russian could only dream about in their wildest fantasies.

        When Comrade Brezhnev finally finished showing grandma around at the very end of the day, and his executive retinue, servants and sundry personal support staff had left, his wrinkled grandmother pulled him aside, and – after glancing around every which way very, VERY thoroughly – she whispered in a tiny, furtive voice in his ear:

        “This is all very fine, but…. WHAT IF THE COMMUNISTS COME?”

        Socialists won’t get this, of course.

        • Test ,
          Time is on our side Soros Et Al, are getting near the end of their natural lives , by God will we will be rid of them soon . Time works for us the worst will pass when these obominations of humanity go to the grave with their dreams ( nightmare ) . but till then prepare for the worst hope for the best each day spent preparing lengthens our capacity for survival in a hostile environment .
          Things will get bad before it improves , last week at the US Capitol prayer breakfast Obama compared Christians to ISIL and said we are no better , he has utter comtempt for the American people . Christians are being scape goated by this regime , I. believe I have seen this movie before and know how it ends. This person writing here can make one promise I will not be boarding any Boxcars as long as I have a pulse.
          Recent pending legislation reveals this THEY ARE TRYING TO REMOVE ANY MEANS OF RESISTANCE AND DEFENSE FROM THE PEOPLE ANY WAY THEY CAN. New bills introduced into congress banning body armor and night vision gear validates this , both are defensive in nature , I don’t think it’s going anywhere with this congress biut you never know . Today there is going to be a mass protest in Washington state against the new anti gun legislation Voted into law in the dead of night ( Bloomberg ) people are going to march on the state house armed today . You know it will never be shown on the MSM . Sooner or later these events are going to be to large to hide by non coverage , then it may get sporty . Also the big lie about the recovery will no longer be kept secret it going to effect every one of us on varying levels. Beware of the ides of march .

          Carefully and realistically access your preparedness plans , get your gear in order , know what you can carry and do , test it , live , work to improve it . You. May only be able to keep only what you can physically carry in an extreme event . Do what you have PROVEN you can do not what you think you can do you don’t know what you don’t know. There are many resources available othe web about rucking ( Defensive Training Group , Max Velocity Tectical , Mosby , ETC that have a wealth of information USE IT , LEARN IT , APPLY IT) and get more PT .
          We are at the point of no return , use this time wisely and get your resources while assets still have value to procure preparedness items , train , get in shape your survival may depend on it in the near future . We fight an evil that has been with us since the beginning of time , victory will not go to the strongest or the smartest but to those that endure . Our fight is against powers and principalities beyond our understanding .

          VICTORY WILL GO TO THOSE NOT BY MIGHT , NOR BY POWER , BUT BY MY SPIRIT .

          Words of wisdom to abide by in these troubling times.

      8. Thanks to the Obama-esque War on Poverty we’ve been having successful years now for decades, right? LBJs $20 *trillion dollar * “War on Poverty” turned 50 not too long ago. So, how’d it do? Well, Detroit was the first large city to sign on (under the sister socialist programme, the Model Cities Programme), used almost a half-billion of your tax dollars. Today Detroit – the city socialism created – is the only city you can walk 12 blocks, and still be at the scene of the crime. Nice work lefties.

        We are now actually up to $22 trillion spent on the War on Poverty, with around 48 million on food stamps, and 100 million not working (this number increased by 10 million during Obama’s first term, see http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-01-13/number-working-age-americans-without-job-has-risen-almost-10-million-under-obama ) and for the first time since 1872, the US is losing to China as the largest economy in the world (http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-01-13/number-working-age-americans-without-job-has-risen-almost-10-million-under-obama ).

        A couple years back CNS News at http://cnsnews.com/commentary/terence-p-jeffrey/354-percent-109631000-welfare said that 109,631,000 Americans lived in households that received benefits from one or more federally funded “means-tested programs” — also known as welfare and around that time then Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack admitted more than a million American kids go to bed hungry. And as a final insult, thanks to the misallocation of wealth deriving from War on Poverty, more businesses close than start up each year (http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2014/05/05/u-s-businesses-are-being-destroyed-faster-than-theyre-being-created/?hpid=z5 ), and the second largest employer in the US is a temp agency (http://washingtonexaminer.com/recovery-woes-americas-second-largest-employer-is-a-temp-agency/article/2532778 )

        (Of course, as Bastiat wrote 150 years ago, socialism is the great fiction, whereby everybody endeavours to live off of everybody else, but that is another story.) And now we have a whole class of people who are utterly dependent (e.g., just one story from CBS – More Than A Thousand Stood Under Heat & Sun For Free Food In Miami – http://miami.cbslocal.com/2014/08/22/locals-line-up-for-free-food-distribution-in-miami/ ) non-producers and impoverished.

        U.S. Household Net Worth since Obama took office:
         Top 1 percent up 1.9 percent
         Next 9 percent up 3.4 percent
         Next 15 percent down 0.5 percent
         Next 25 percent down 16.7 percent
         Bottom 50 percent down 44.2 percent

      10. The poorest American would be considered richer than Henry VIII if comparing material well-being. American’s are rich by global and historical standards. Americans are, however, not the richest people on the planet. The highest living standards are found in places such as Canada, Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, Singapore, etc. What makes people ‘rich’ in those countries? Well, apart from high incomes and access to material goods (trips to Ikea, modern supermarkets that make Piggly Wiggly look like a third world slop fest), it is the ‘public goods’ they receive that seals the deal: free healthcare, subsidized education, old-age support, government investment in high-tech infrastructure, etc. America spends this money on its military-industrial complex and a web of 900 plus global military bases and a vast infrastructure of spy networks and global surveillance. Just choices. America chooses to run the world. It is that simple.

        • Frank, thank for posting this. However, I am the thumbs down. You make a lot of good points; however, as dual US/Canadian citizen. may I say a graciously as possible you are grossly uninformed about the socialist wonderland of Canada, including the old absurd “free health care” piece. That is so (again, I don’t mean to be harsh here) uninformed I don’t know where to start. A year wait for MRIs in Ottawa? Lotteries to find a physician in NS? BC dropping 7,000 people from care and just letting them die, as reported by Dave Eberhard in the Vancouver Sun a few years back? The fact that the Canadian Supreme Court ruled a few years ago that PRIVATE clinics could open as people weren’t getting served in the “free” hospitals well? The list could go on and on and on, but I won’t.

          Yes, the military industrial complex is way off base. You are very, very correct there, and that was a very good point.

          Jag också prata på Svenska, och arbetade med ett Svenskt company. Your comments about Swedish wealth are WAY off base. WAY. Have you been to Sweden? 100 years ago, they were the 5th richest country in the world. Not any more. Worse, in the 1990s, their kroner tanked precipitously, thanks to their stupid socialism. They since improved, and had for many years a conservative govt – as has Canada, under Harper. Norway, except for its good luck of having oil, would be Iceland, or Estonia. Don’t kid yourself.

          Your point about being the military industrial complex is well put and important. Thanks for posting that. However, your apotheosis of these other countries is, at best, misinformed.

          • I like both posts and really appreciate the civility.

            • Rebel in Idaho, you said it best.

          • Norway has a very serious problem beyond what you site….muslim infiltration and the known consequences of allowing the staggering numbers that now now live with within their borders.

        • FRANK-
          “it is the ‘public goods’ they receive that seals the deal”

          These “public goods” or “free shit” is a direct reflection of their socialist governments .

          “Canada, Sweden, Norway, Iceland, Switzerland, Singapore, etc.”
          ALL socialist governments .
          America needs less “free shit” and more motivation and inovation , just my opinion.

        • Frank Thoughts, here’s an article that pretty much sums up the conflict with Russia and the NWO:

          “Russia won’t tolerate the post-Cold War global system dominated by a single leader, Putin said Saturday at a meeting with the Federation of Independent Trade Unions in Sochi.

          “That type of world order has never been acceptable for Russia,” Putin said. “Maybe someone likes it and wants to live under a pseudo-occupation, but we won’t put up with it.””

        • Oh btw Barry, Cheers!, you worthless little whelp out of a she-bitch cur.

      12. The problem is a debt-money system that now encompasses the entire world. There is no political solution short of repealing the legal tender laws worldwide and allowing competing local currencies. Neither left nor right will make any changes of consequence…they are ALL corrupt and controlled by moneychangers.

        The usury function is an exponential one and requires constant growth to service it. Thus the never ending growth of credit/debt everywhere.

        “The Rothschilds and that class of money-lenders of whom they are the representatives and agents…men who never think of lending a shilling to their next door neighbors, for purposes of honest industry, unless upon the most ample security, and at the highest rate if interest…stand ready, at all times, to lend money in unlimited amounts to those robbers and murderers, who call themselves governments, to be expended in shooting down those who do not submit quietly to being robbed and enslaved.”

        267,000 jobs down only 96,000,000 more to go. Not counting the 20 million illegal aliens already here and the 500,000 he will import this year.
        At this rate it will be 434.45692883895 months before everyone has a job. Assuming of course that no one in this country turns eighteen or is born in that time. in case you’re wondering that’s 36.2047440699126 years. So apparently he should have said we have 36 more great years.

      18. Why Venezuela’s condoms cost $755
        6 February 2015 Last updated at 18:13 GMT

        Venezuela – a major oil producer – has been heavily affected by the fall in oil prices on international markets.

        Government taking over grocery chains.

        As a result, basic items are being priced out of reach of average Venezuelans.

        How long before it happens here?

        • Blackjack, you can thank the commie scum President Nicholas Maduro and his predecessor Hugo Chavez for what happened to that country. First, Chavez took the oil wealth and created welfare programs for his freeloading support base, then decided to prop up his commie pals in Cuba, Bolivia, and Nicaragua. Propping up all 3 commie regimes is finally taking its toll on Venezuela’s economy. They’re only a step or two away from collapse. Now it looks like the Castro regime has been thrown a life preserver from the African virus wanting to restore diplomatic ties with Cuba. Raul Castro is already demanding the trade embargo be lifted and to “reparations” for 50-plus years of economic damage ALLEGEDLY caused by the embargo WHEN IT WAS REALLY THE CASTROS’ BRAND OF COMMUNISM THAT HAS WRECKED THAT COUN TRY. RAUL CASTRO CAN GO F#$% HIMSELF.

          • “Chavez took the oil wealth and created welfare programs”

            So, that means Chavez took a national resource and applied it to the national poor, rather than sock all of the profits into a huge oil corporation? Is that considered “cronyism”?

            So, in Venezuela, the taxpayers do not support the poor, the national resources do?

            Genius.

            • Want to hear a fairy tale? Once upon a time long long ago, you know like 8 or 10 articles, Cuz called someone an African Virus and another idiot thought that was funny and now we will have to hear this for the next two years. Sure hope Cuz gets over this before he decides to come back to Noth Geoga.

              • NGIC, my favorite idiot, a lot of people have seen my posts where I call Obama the African virus so no fairy tale. That’s what I call him from now on and I stand by that name.

          • Thanks for reminding us of the historical context. Too many Americans don’t pay attention to history and/or are too young to have lived through it.

        AMERICA

      20. I never voted for obumer and I know most folks are struggling. But in my case this is not true I make more$ than ever before the only people I see that are unemployed are folks without skills. People out there have useless degrees that employers don’t need. Get real world skills that employers need I can’t stress this enough your art degree is not gonna make you any $ these days put down the coloring books and take life serious. Stop trying to follow your dreams employers don’t care about your dreams. They only care that you have the skills to help them. Like the women who think they are gonna be models. I’m not saying it’s not possible but it’s not realistic. These ladies may be nice to look at but how is this translating into employer value. It’s what you can do for an employer . My parents never told me to follow my dreams because it’s just a dream. Like the American dream. Personal economic survival is not a dream this is reality . I drive a truck it’s no dream job believe me but I make enough $ to support my family and save to retire someday. This is reality not a dream people. Learn how to do something that is needed and pays a living wage first then in your spare time follow your dreams prioritys . I’ve seen so many people who follow their dreams never make $ they think their beauty or art is enough. There is no substitute for this. I’ve seen people who lack skills but are highly motivated and the are persistent and succeed in the end. People working at dept stores or fast food is not gonna cut it don’t complain if you stay there and have no$. Oh and know what the industry pays if it’s not enough don’t work in it. You are free to work for less $ if you want but the easy route doesn’t pay good

        • I agree. Ask most people what they know how to do and they usually return with glazed over stares of “huh?” or might tell you what job they have/used to have.

          If you can’t “find a job” you should honestly consider what skills you have and why anyone would want to hire you. Is there anyone here who can fix any car on the road that can’t find a job? Is there anyone here who has never missed a day of work for any reason (hint: my retired mother didn’t as an RN in pediatrics, I haven’t, and neither has our oldest daughter) who can’t find a job? As ah pointed out, are there any here with a CDL that can’t find a job?

          I’ve had lots of jobs that sucked, often 2 or 3 at a time, but I’ve never been over 8 days without one since I was 14.

          • Speaking of the CDLs and truck driving jobs; there will always be driving jobs for those with experience and good driving records, as long as there is any economic activity at all.

            Why? Because there are too many idiots behind steering wheels of trucks that don’t have common sense.

            Just in our state alone, last year, there were over 700 roll overs of tractor and trailers. Most of those drivers are no longer behind a big truck steering wheel.
            Then look at the fatalities involving big rigs. Most of the drivers found at fault, are black balled and will never get a driving job unless they buy/lease their own rig.

            There are major accidents because of big rig drivers everyday and new drivers are wanted badly.

            I logged over 2 million “accident free” miles during my career, and have since retired. Started out in a cab-over tractor, which is a thing of the past. Missed being in many collisions by using common sense driving techniques. Jack-knived across I-30 west in Texas, on black ice, doing 55 mph. I skidded/slid for so long that my ass had time to let go of the cloth on the driver’s seat and I was partially standing and ready to dive into the bunk,for the crash, when I remembered to go back on the throttle. It straightened right out and I was able to slow down without going off the road.

            I was lucky, but forty-two Big Rig drivers, from Nashville to Dallas were not so lucky during that ice storm of “94.

            There are jobs out there for Truck Drivers, but most unexperienced drivers have to start over the road, with dispatches of a week to ten days, and some as long as three weeks at a time, before coming back home.

            Not everyone is cut out for that kind of living and sacrifice. Stay at it long enough and there “will” be health problems. That you can count on, especially the respiratory issues from breathing all that carbon monoxide from the road traffic. Most thirty year plus, veteran drivers, get some form of cancer, especially if they smoke cigarettes.

      21. I get free Heath coverage and it’s damn good not that state welfare stuff that don’t cover anything . There are good paying jobs out there folks don’t beleive there isn’t . It’s a tactic to get you to work for less.

      22. America is poised for another good year of endless warmongering is what the puppet is talking about. Another good year of encroaching police state belligerence. Another good year for the globalists in the frenzied march to a one world order. Another good year to laugh at the majority of American’s who are as easy to herd along as docile sheep. Another good year for the powers that be to extend their wealth on the backs of people that actually work for a living. Another good year when the lies are believed by ninety percent of otherwise occupied citizens.

      23. Current number on food stamps at http://www.fns.usda.gov/pd/supplemental-nutrition-assistance-program-snap

        Not such a good year for them.

        In 2013, there was a record 20% of households on Food Stamps – http://cnsnews.com/news/article/ali-meyer/record-20-households-food-stamps-2013 Not such a good year for them, either.

        On the other hand, if you have been a travel agent for Michelle-Marie Antoinette Obama, managing that “lost” $1.6 billion Obama crony Jonny Boy Corzine “misplaced” or perhaps part of the BIG GREEN MONEY cabal milking the scam of global warming, its been a VERY GOOD few years!

      24. Doing Better….???? only if one is member of his corrupt, Marxist inner circle, who is stealing all they can from the America people. Ever wonder what happened to all of the Solendra money. That company got $550m from zero and is ilk, and then declares bankrupcy a few months later….

        Brother can your spare a dime….. is more like it,

      25. There are few things in this world that you can depend on 100%. One of these is knowing that whatever comes out of BO’s mouth is a lie. Hasn’t missed yet.

      26. PS – when Obungler took over, there were ~32 mm on food stamps; now its around 47 mm (I haven’t checked the most recent figures, but it’s around that. Official link at http://www.fns.usda.gov/pd/supplemental-nutrition-assistance-program-snap)

        A VERY good year for banksters at JP Morgue (the bank that handles much of this), liar, frauds, and leftist shills.

        Oh yes. Dr. Lawrence Kotlikoff, of Boston U, and formerly a high treasury official under Reagan, states that (last I looked) if you count ALL unfunded liabilities, our debt is not $18 trillion, but – get this $222 trillion (just google his name+unfunded liabilities) to confirm.

        Question: How do you think this will be paid back? Unless we have unheard of, impossible growth (hahhahaha! Under socialism?) there are only three ways: Cut services, raise taxes or print money (you can combine, of course). Cut services? There will be Ferguson riots all over the place, from formerly self-reliant Americans whining for their free lunch; raise taxes? You kill even MORE business… what little there is left. So, while they WILL do these two, and in case you haven’t been looking, they will print even more. There already is a currency war (which often leads to shooting wars), and just this week Denmark, Australia, Canada, etc. cut rates, while China put $100 billion into play by cutting bank reserve requirements.

        The upshot? Do what you can to buy gold or silver, and for goodness sake, DO NOT BUY the ETFs like SLV or GLD. If you absolutely cannot take physical possession, use somebody like goldmoney.com, where your money is ALLOCATED to you, personally. Junk silver is your best bet, tho. Recognizable, available in small denominations (can’t buy a gallon of milk with an ounce of gold), and right now the banksters have is driven down with paper shorts to an unsustainable price.

      27. Do The Math

        I am a Math teacher,

        The media keeps refering to the 1%.

        If 80 people own 50% of the worlds wealth and assets, you get a fraction of 80/7.2 trillion %, this is nowhere near 1%, it is less than 2 trillionth of a percent.

        Don’t be fooled.

        The media never states who the 80 people that own 50% of global wealth are, and Bill Gates ain’t one of them. Lets think Queen of England, Rothschilds, etc.

        Think about it. Do the math, it’s not rocket science!!!!!

        • As my friend who is a rocket scientist at Eglin AFB in FL points out: even rocket science isn’t all that hard, it’s mostly Newtonian physics and a little chemistry.

          • I’ve been saying that same thing for years!!!

        • Search for “Hurun Global Rich List 2015.” It is a ranking of 2,089 billionaires in the world.

          Bill Gates is number one on the list.

          Look at that Rich List spreadsheet and do a little math.

          • Yea, that total number of billionaires has increased by about 1800 since 1997; when I think it was a little over 200 total.

            I met one at the Rockingham Nascar race in NC. He was an ex CEO of McDonalds, and owned a race team. Not a very friendly man. But, what would you expect from an elite from Chicago.
            He probably put some of his billions into Odrama’s coffers.

      28. Correction: The fraction should be 80 people divided by the Global population of 7.2 billion, not trillion. Typo.

        80 people/7.2 Billion people globally

        • @ Just saying’

          You make a good point.

          In popular usage, the “1%” can be understood by combining G. William Domhoff’s Who Rules America, which is a longitudinal study of the wealthy in the US and the technocrats who serve them, with Charles Hugh Smith’s essays since about 2007 on how concentrated wealth perverts the political process. Oftwominds.

          The “1%” includes nine groupings or constellations of people:
          Old Money,
          New Money,
          the highest executives of the Fortune 500, most of whose wealth is in owned shares,
          the ruling clique at Goldman Sucks, B of A etc,
          major hedge fund and private capital firms,
          federal and appellate state judges,
          flag rank military,
          media moguls like the Grahams who until recently owned The Washington Post,
          key tenured professors who serve as “talent scouts” at the Ivy League, Stanford, Chicago etc..

          The “out of sight wealthy” are maybe 10,000 families, a few hundred thousand people. Out of sight wealthy means billionaires. They are wealthy from generation-skipping owned assets not from large salaries.

          The “1%” isn’t monolithic. There are factions competing for influence. It’s too large a group for them to all know each other but they travel in the same circles. Share values and a world view, neatly summarized by “We Rule, They Drool.”

          • The latest Hurun Global Rich List shows 2,089 billionaires in the world.

            • WOW , 2089 BILLIONAIRES!
              I bet in the fifties those same folks would have been Millionaires instead .
              I think this shows that global INflation is very real.

      29. Sure, it will be a great year for obama, spending tax dollars like it’s confetti, golfing, vacations, giving tax money to banksters, rogue goverments, more scandles, more lies, more deceit and the beat goes on.

      30. Under the Obama plan evil is good and good is evil. Good for Obama means another year achieving many of his goals to wipe out the American middle class, collapse the economy, bankrupt the county, destroy our infrastructure, trash our standing in the world, weaken our military, and destroy the resources we would need to rebuild when he has totally succeeded.

      31. Stop being complainers people really get a real job you are still free to do what you want . If you like being down don’t blame successful folks for it. You are only down if you want to be. I got things going on . I do what I want I got sick of being poor and did something about it. This is fair and equal we really gotta stop complaining about the gov. Seems that is all preppers think about . What about self reliance to make a living you owe it to your family so man up and take the bull by the horn. I f you think I’m an asshole for saying it you are in denial and believe the gov should support your family I don to think this way . Reality it’s what’s for dinner.

        • And who exactly are you addressing this to?
          The leeches of society that are supported by hard earned tax dollars or the SHTF family?
          Just curious

        • I’m not going to stop complaining about the government or the people on welfare, but I agree about the DIY attitude. Things might suck a little now but they’re going to suck a lot more soon.

          Life isn’t going to get any easier for you in the future.

          No one owes you/me a living.

          I will do whatever it takes.

          It’s all swirling down the drain.

          Plan accordingly.

      32. The talking heads are shocked that a President whose name is Barack Hussein Obama won’t recognize Islamic extremists. He claims Christians are just as bad. What I didn’t know was Valerie Jarret is a Muslim. I knew she was born in Iran to American parents. I saw a quote of hers the other day from 1977. She was quoted a saying she would use freedom of religion to push the Muslim agenda. The West is dead.

        • Prophet:

          Valerie Jarrett’s parents lived in Iran when Jarrett was born; however they were African Americans The parents are both African Americans living back in the US with very prestigious jobs.

          However, the Jewish Daily Forward paper quotes Jarrett as being very proud that “her great grandfather was a Jew”.

          Doesn’t matter to me what her and her families ancestors were, Prophet, a quick check of the internet will show you her and her family, along with friends, and of course Obama, of their deep affiliation with the Communist party. The communists are in control of the White House, that is the reality.

          Also a quick check of the Goldman Sachs involvement in the Whitehouse will also give you an idea of the bankster/criminals running the internal show….you decide for yourself what religious bent they have.

              Did it ever occur to your trolling pea brain that you are here as often as I am; or you wouldn’t be replying to my posts.

              I am sure most posters here recognize you as a Frankfurt Schooled idiot based in Tel Aviv. How is that working out for you. Your handlers need to let you know your attacks are foolish drivel.

              Try using some facts disputing posts; it would help make you seem less likely to be maybe…..12 years old?

      33. Yesterday, I was informed that 500 American high tech workers in California were laid off and replaced by immigrants from Asia. H1B visas. This has been going on for years. Traveled to San Jose about 18 years ago to interview America IT workers. One of them had a Masters in computer science. He was hired at a large tech corp. He was told by the Hindu that hired him that he would be the last American hired there. His job was to ensure that the immigrants they were going to hire had the qualifications that they claimed they had. If you fly to San Jose California, it looks like you landed in Mumbai India. They know how to work the system real good. They claim to have IT skills in order to get the H1B visas, and as soon as they get off the plane they go to work at restaurants, etc. This is deliberate. Land in Seattle? Looks like you landed in Hong Kong. It goes on and on. Pew Hispanic survey says most new jobs in the US don’t go to Americans, but rather, to immigrants.

        • Just filling jobs Americans won’t do.

          Or so I’m told.

        • The town I grew up in, is now overrun with chinese and asian indians…. White people are going the way of the American Indian and the Buffalo….

          I hope they will give us our own reservation….

        • They’re destroying us like they’re destroying Europe…one piece at a time.

      34. YES it will be a VERY good year, IF you call living in a cardboard box down at the river eating rat meat on a stick GOOD.

      35. When a cronic liar tells us that everything is fine, the opposite has to be true. We are toast. None of our elected rep’s are doing anything to remove the usurper’s illegal occupation of the white house. So this is going to be it. THE END

      36. So… yesterday I went to my Doctor for a physical. While I was there I asked him, “So Doc, what are we gonna do about this virus from Africa ?

        He said, “I don’t know. He still has 2 more years in office.”

        I have a GREAT doctor.

      37. The headline sounds like an ad for tires lol.

        Seriously though, with all this man is capable of, judging by the last six years in office, I can only imagine what he’s going to do next. Will he “pull the plug” and shut everything down? Bring in marital law? Or is he just the setup guy for the next dictator who will be even more powerful?

      40. Since NAFTA and GATT all of the factories here in the Northeast have closed. People used to make things in this country and the factories were the centers of neighborhoods with businesses supported by the workers. Now even those businesses have closed and the neighborhoods reduced to third world hell holes. The factories either rot or become section 8 housing for the welfare class. The corporations that once owned those factories now make twice as much overseas where they don’t have to abide by minimum wage laws, healthcare mandates, or environmental regulations. Treasonous politicians aligned with treasonous mega corporations. the Hegelian Dialectic at work. Prepare now because things are going to get a whole lot worse.

      41. More lies and insanity from the Corporatist Fascist Puppet filth POTUS. The same lies and fantasies you hear from Repukeican NWO Puppet fascist filth like Jeb Bush, and the whole evil filth of the NWO Puppet Bush Clan of treasonous criminal trash. All Bush Family NWO fascist filth will be arrested after the collapse for treason and crimes against humanity, right along with the Corporatist Fascist puppet Obama, and all Repukeican and Democrat filth in our criminal NWO Corporatist Fascist Puppet Congress.

        • Awright…my heads spinning trying in intake all those adjectives……I think what your sayin’ is Republicans suck, Democrats suck and Obama sucks. We’re gonna arrest all these blankety blank SOBs and throw them in prison after SHTF. I think…I’ll go for that.

      42. People any good job gives random drug tests . So put the pipe down and grow up. It’s your own fault stop blaming the gov and the successful. I don’t want to work with a bunch of dopers I worked at these places before they never want to pay these people. They may turn a blind eye to what is going on while your taking pay cuts. The weed is legal in my state so everybody smokes the reefers and it shows in their attitude toward life in general. Most of these stoners won’t speak up about working conditions as long as they can get high. I think the people getting subsidies should get drug tested this would get rid of the freeloaders and only the real needy would be left they gotta reform this

      43. GIGO, garbage in, garbage out. There is no truth with manipulated figures and no use pursuing any. The lack of justice is just a side benefit. Anyway, Obama probably believes the figures provided to him. However, our collective use of empirical evidence in real time seems somewhat lacking, seemingly controlled, about providing any basis for truth and consequently knowledge. If integrity is similar to virginity, either you have it or you do not. How are we to cope without integrity, truth and consequently, knowledge? The answer is becoming less clear day by day. Like Kelp swaying in the ocean current. Give in to the sway, resistance is futile. Now embrace those Japanese radionuclides even though they don’t exist. There, there, not so bad. I will tell you of knowledge, do not concern yourself, concentrate on the sway and chant with us, Truth is Terrorism, Truth is terrorism. Oh look, you have a new weird leaf, just let it sway. Many have warned us and we failed to act proactively because of misinformation such as this that officialdom spews. If any future generations are solvent or genetically able enough to ask about their ancestors as to why didn’t they do anything while it was happening? What would we tell them? That in a whorehouse only the cashier has integrity and sorry about that future of yours we borrowed and spent that now you will repay. Will any reset triumph over mans greed and corruption? I sincerely hope so but I have my doubts. Age brings on cynicism, another manipulated fault, for another time. I leave you with this, history repeats because of faults we fail to control. Whether it is a single humans’ nature or the collective human nature is an answer only you can make.

        • Damn, Grandpa, you nailed it…

        • Grandpa;
          I somehow don’t think that you are the average poster here. If you actually penned that post I wish you would offer up your creds. Thanks

          • Yes I penned it, no it is not plagiarized. My creds started the summer of 69. I bought into some of the sixties culture and those I did buy I never sold and the investment grew. Retired and living large off grid now in the Crown of the Continent. It is healthy to be skeptical yet there are predictions and there are for sure predictions. If there is one thing I wish to impart it is the serious nature of nuclear energy and its by products. I very sincerely believe that carbon is being used in an attempt to enslave humanity and that all predication of disaster by carbon works to this end. Mankinds use of nuclear energy will be our end. Both are predictions, only one is for sure. That is why I agree with and live by this statement; “If people knew the truth and had to chose between nuclear energy and candles, they would choose candles”. This is the only site I comment on anymore and I wish to thank Mac and his community of commentators. I wish all the green thumbers could get together somehow. Meet,talk and plan, as it seems apparent to me that kindred spirits will be a very important asset in the years ahead. I choose to live outside the ConUS even though an accident of birth made Sam my Uncle for life I remain a conscientious objector. Close, but outside looking in. Better perspective that way. It is why that now I get mad and disgusted when I reread writings from the sixties. Works like Stewart Brands Whole Earth Catalog. Somewhere the collective got lost along the way. I blame that on greed and corruption. When I get lost I reread Abbey Hoffman or Buckminster Fuller. Hope, the way it was in the sixties, not Obama’s hope and change. We missed that bus and now we are being thrown underneath it. Why do we discount the warnings of George Orwell and dwell on those of Al Gore? Because truth must be sought. It is never apparent, never has been, hidden by greed and corruption. Ponder this, if geo engineering does cool the Earth and brings on another ice age what do we do then? Put oligarchs in the mountain cirques as the ice advances yelling “It is global warming”. That hot air should do it. But seriously we need to cherish those with integrity. Now we don’t even recognize the trait. Heading into the 2014 Presidential election, I told the wife let us watch in real time the way the system deals with the integrity of the only candidate with it. It did and it wasn’t pretty. If you still recognize integrity you will know who I am talking about. As our chance to be proactive evaporated, I have since hunkered a little lower because the rigged system seems too strong and ready to put down any ground swell. To all those here like me who are hunkered down and waiting, who luvs ya baby? May you wait forever.

      44. People need to thin if was their business would you hire lazy Americans who want big salarys or cheap immigrant help. When you pay for something you want a deal right so do business owners. I would hire whoever was willing to work for what I’m prepared to pay it’s that simple folks. This is the way free market capitalism works. I busted my ass to establish myself so I can work for less and this is coming faster with cheap immigrant labor. Labor is a constant cost to a business if you can reduce the cost of it you can maximize profits . Why is this a crime to people I’m fine with it myself we american workers are overpaid for what we do they can pay 30 china men and get more production. I make less $ now too I’m not special and entitled to more over anybody else. If they are willing to do the job for less and undermine wages then I suffer the hit. I don’t like it really but it is not wrong for a business to do this IMHO. I used to work in a factory years back I made $8.00 an hour come home with $200 a week terrible ha but the people there were in the same boat they weren’t being unfair to just me. It was fair and equal. Well I decided I needed more $ so I looked for other work and went up to $500 a week when this didn’t cut it I got training. I’m up to$1000 a week when this is not enough I will go to college or start my own business. I’m not mad at the factory for paying so low I accepted it. If it’s unacceptable don’t work go somewhere else this is what you do . Wages are paid according to skill level working in a shipping dock is no brain work . Not trying to insult anyone but be honest with yourself people. A good salary is going to take a lot more than 9 to 5 hours some people are on call I’m sure the doctor that delivered your child was happy to come in at 2 in the morn. Or how about that HVAC tech on Sunday morn to fix your burner that shut down. These folks sacrafice potentially important times in their lives to help you out of your situation . They should work for less though right . But hey your entitled to a living wage according too bummer. After all it’s fair and equal.

        • This is NOT free market capitalism, it is fascism.

          It’s always about maximizing profits over people right? Anyway, not your fault per say, but when we all follow this bs, it adds up. We best realize we are in the same boat when shtf. And our newly elected congress wants war with the bear. Not wise in my book. Desperation.

          Nice to see you guys finally seeing the error of subsidies to farma, and pharma, obie care, and nafta, gatt, etc. You are coming my way, us Independents have opposed all of this for years and years.

          If our gen gets our chance we will stand up for America, not the right – left circus. I pray for this every day.

          Regarding this article, thank god we prepped early.

          Nothing fancy, but prudent. I am grateful to you all.

          Scout out.

        • I don’t hire fat people or smokers. Though I admit I have made 2 exceptions for talented, hardworking, smokers. Fat people make lousy employees, they call out all the time, they’re lazy, and they have so many medical issues that normal people don’t. Plus they’re revolting to look at.

          Anyone care to wager that people on welfare are fatter than independent people?

          Being fat is one of the most outwardly visible signs that you are part of the problem. Smoking is second. Ask yourself if a fat smoker is going to survive a zombie apocalypse or any other problem.

      45. I just want to wish all the posters on SHTF the best of luck in future and please continue to wake people up. I have enjoyed debating and the discourse of this site, but this will be my last post and I will no longer frequent SHTF.

        After a few days of contemplation, I have come to the conclusion that Mac is a fear mongering disinformation agent. I have stated many reasons for this before in other posts. Unfortunately, I do not believe there really is any way to be a real patriot and get your message out there. The PTB will not allow it.

        Once again, best of luck to all those here. You’re the ones will be standing on the front lines when the time comes. Thanks for the good conversations, tips, ideas, etc…

        -Smooth Criminal

        • Smooth, if you seek complacent thoughts go to a Macdonalds for a happy meal. Comes complete with a fun prize in the box to distract the simpletons with no coping skills for hours.

          • I will add Smooth, go check out some of the other Prepper links listed at the top on the left column. Was reading a few good articles at the “OFF Grid Survival” Link. Just saying this a Go Too, and there are plenty of other links to get the info you seek. No throwing the baby out with the bath water.

        • Take care Smooth Criminal. If you find another home where opinions and thoughts can be exchanged in such a way as here at SHTF Plan let me know. I have looked but have never found a better place than here.

          BigB

        • Here’s a thought. Print out short flyer with the information you want to get out. Make it SUCCINCT, where you can put three or four statements on a page, then use a paper cutter. Leave your comments ALL over – grocery baskets, in magazines as I stand in line at grocery stores or doctors’ office, pinned up in the dressing rooms in Sears or Penny’s, leaving on *thousands* of mailboxes over the years, etc. etc. etc. I have probably left 10,000 or so short documents.

          Negativists such as Smooth will say, “So what? Lotta good that has done.” The point is, my actions are NOT controlled by anyone, and b.) no one knows how that information will play out. No one. It may go down a rat hole, or it may not. Margaret Mead – who otherwise was totally useless – once said “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

          I guess you won’t be part of that potential group, Smooth. Whether today’s group realizes the necessary changes for justice and freedom, the point is that they will never kill the reality of those two principles, and even if we go into a leftist dark age, those realities will STILL exist.

          You also dismiss the reality of the Transcendent. If there is in fact a God, He is – unless you are a deist or pantheist (or Buddhist) **active in history.** You need to review CS Lewis’ That Hideous Strength. Today’s PTB are, in reality, fiddling with a real, actual demonic world that they know nothing of. But that doesn’ mean they will be exempt from the darkness of these forces. It’s all spelled out in Lewis’ fictional work.

          Sorry to lose you. However, I am not giving up. The struggle is a non-violent one of education and information dissemination. I woke up due to people helping inform me. I intend to continue that work.

          • TEST. Man you’re a boring old fart.

          • LMAO – Margret Mead ?
            I have not heard her referenced in a very long time.

            Otherwise useless ? No doubt, the original “Feminazi”.
            HAHAHA , thanks for the memories ?

          • You might enjoy Frank Peretti’s works, particularly his earlier ones “This Present Darkness” and “Piercing the Darkness”.

            They may be using fictional symbolism -or maybe it isn’t really fictional- but they are scripturally accurate and give a good deal of insight into the supernatural (spiritual) world we can’t directly experience and works and interacts with us.

            I highly recommend them.

          • One hand
            Reaches out
            And pulls a lost soul from harm
            While a thousand more go unspoken for
            They say what good have you done
            By saving just this one
            It’s like whispering a prayer
            In the fury of a storm

            And I hear them saying you’ll never change things
            And no matter what you do it’s still the same thing
            But it’s not the world that I am changing
            I do this so this world will know
            That it will not change me

            This heart
            Still believes
            The love and mercy still exist
            While all the hatred rage and so many say
            That love is all but pointless in madness such as this
            It’s like trying to stop a fire
            With the moisture from a kiss

            And I hear them saying you’ll never change things
            And no matter what you do it’s still the same thing
            But it’s not the world that I am changing
            I do this so this world will know
            That it will not change me

            As long as one heart still holds on
            Then hope is never really gone

            I hear them saying you’ll never change things
            And no matter what you do it’s still the same thing
            But it’s not the world that I am changing
            I do this so this world we know
            Never changes me

            What I do is so
            This world will know
            That it will not change me

      46. Well people it’s tax filing season again hope everyone gets a nice return and is able to take that trip they want or buy the preps they need. We know the gov is a shit pile but we all need to stay on our personal agendas with prepping and all the other things that pertain to surviving the coming shit storm. Never let the gov think your tax return is theirs. It’s your money and you want it now. Just like they want theirs and skim it off each paycheck. Just got my w2 s and gotta set up my appointment with my union paid for accountant. It cost zip for me. It’s good to be in the union even though I gotta pay dues. Let’s all try to forget what the gov is doing and focus on our agenda this is within our power. All this gov and obumer talk is getting old now really folks this is shtf PLAN that’s right PLAN. It’s about sharing ideas that are good and helpful to our cause. People don’t even talk about projects they have done and what kind of success they had. No talk of strategies to meeting daily needs. There are many outlets to hear all the complaining talk radio is the biggest I don’t listen to it anymore the whining is out of control with no countermeasures put forth. I used to like it . We have to stay current on what’s going on so watch the news for a bit and go between news channels to get a well rounded view of things. If you find yourself starting to put up with the complaining turn it off. It’s not good to put up with it for too long let’s be honest it wears you down. I laugh at it now it’s easier than getting all pissed and having your blood pressure go up. Let’s start to focus on what we can do and stop wasting our energy on the bitching .

        • Ass hat: You being a dye in the wool UNION Member tells me everything I need to KNOW about you. As for me UNION’S are a big reason we are in the shape we’re in.

          • Unions are nothing more than greedy ‘ass-hats’ holding the country hostage on occasion, for their own over paid pricks.

            Look what is happening at the ports. It is a sad time for America, and getting more sad every month.

            “All in the shame of greed, they sell their souls”

            Feel free to use my “not” so famous quote.

            oic….

      47. Grandpas right we are so far from the truth now we will never get it . The lie is so big they have to put a new spin on it. Go with the flow and try to forcast what is coming down the pipe and take measures to insulate our families . It doesn’t matter who is in charge anymore. I’ve seen things happen I never thought would. Some say times have changed I say people have changed. People used to want to do the right thing. Now people do what benefits themselves. The young people are selfish nowadays this will pass down to their kids too. The future leadership looks grim to me. I don’t have much hope for it. Not much hope for a rebellion either . So socialism is the path of least resistance it seems. This is not what the founders had envisioned.

      48. Totally agree with rebel in Idaho about fat people being lazy all of the fat people at my work never carry their end of the rope the smokers too always out taking smoke breaks. I go out side and stand around for a few mins if they can go out and smoke I can go and stand around too. Them out smoking comes out to 20 mins extra worth of breaks I want them too. The obese are lazy this is a fact I don’t hire but what the hell are they thinking hiring lazy fat folks. The fat people are always talking about when they gonna eat. Is that all they think about. The ladies in the office are all way overweight and food is always being delivered to the office. Then they wonder why nothing is getting done. This is no way to run a business. A lot of the welfare people are fat you see them the first of the month in the market with carriages full to the top of junk food . Part of the problem yep you bet cha.

        • Pretty soon, with the way things are going, it will be a hate crime if you call them fat, lazy, etc.

          Fat people are disgusting…

      49. Not an Obama fan. Even less of a fan of blullshit. Using a made up, photoshopped pic as a lead in to your article is a strong indicator you are less than credible. In case my efforts at tact and diplomacy have escaped you, whic seems likely given the lack of intieligent th9oguth displayed here, you are full of shit.

        • D and C, I agree with you on Obama, but Mac is full of credibility and we are full of intelligent thought here. I’m not a fan of useless trolls, so be gone with you.

          • RB. I disagree. It’s lazy to label people who have a differing opinion from your own as a TOLL even if their words can oftentimes be rather “fruity”… Someone once said, “variety is the spice of life” Reading opposing posts, even hostile comments on this site adds to the mix imo. It takes all sorts to make a world. How dull it would be if we all just nodded along in agreement with each other! Same old, same old, nothing to see here, move along now. A state of mind I fear the ELITES would love us to exhibit. Don’t know about you but for me STEREO will always kick MONOS ass. Keep it real.

        • And you can’t type. What is “intieligent th9oguth” anyway?

          Nevermind. Any answer you gave would make just as little sense.

          • You want to see good typing skills? Check out sgt.dale if you want to read English as a second language.

        • dazed

          tact and diplomacy…

          since when will either suffice in getting the job done…?

          as far as “lack of intelligent thought displayed here..”

          none of us ever stated we were intelligent

          common sense…yes

          opinionated …yes

          and lastly..a photoshopped pic of Obama is rightly so..

          ever heard of parody and sarcasm?

          enjoy the day

      50. If Finally Hit Me. You know you are getting old when you go on Craig’s list and Hit Antiques section, and up pops all the toys, tools and furniture I used as a kid. If nothing else it brings back good memories.

        • Monster Magnet, Twister, slinky and the game “Operation” (damn that wishbone).

          • PO’d Patriot, I had that “operation” game. That wishbone was a bitch. I use to fall an bust my ass on “twister” every time. The slinkys were cool. I’ve got one today that I use for an external shortwave antenna. It really works.

        • You know you are old when….

          You could lay pipe and listen to her moans all night long, but now you just lay, and listen to your own groans all night long.

          You used to think you were the cat’s meow because of your good looks and charm, but now you just look like something that the cat dragged in.

          You could tear up the dance floor with any of the baby dolls in tight blue jeans, but now you just scuff the rug because it hurts too damn much to pick your feet up while swingin’ that bottle of oxygen.

          You used to swing a couple of Bull sized nards around, while sporting a zuccini, now you just carry a couple of dried up walnut hulls with a grub worm dangling along.

          Getting old is like a big window fan, one way it sucks and the other way it blows.

          You know you are old when you looked forward to having a middle age crisis and driving around in a sports car with a sexy woman about 20 years younger, but woke up one day and realized you skipped all that and went straight into, “everything hurts and wtf happened to all my hair”.

          Oh, I see it now, it’s coming out my ears and my ass.

          But, hey! Look on the bright side. You got to witness the best and worst times, of technology and civilization.

          I’d rather been a cowboy though, ridin’ the range in the Eastern Rocky Mtn. foothills and plains, in 1865.

        I say let’s work together.

        This is the info age.

        Distributed intelligence, together.

        What do you think we should do?

        • Scout. Eat drink and be merry for tomorrow we die. Life’s too short man. Enjoy yourself whilst you still can… Party Time peoples… “TURN UP THE BASS” Rumble, rumble, rumble. “YEAH”

        • Scout ,

          Simply :

          ADAPT , IMPROVISE , OVERCOME , WIN

      52. Every time I comment on the lazy fat welfare freeloaders I get thumbs down. I comment on the the crooked gov and thumbs up . It seems that it’s convenient to place the blame on the gov for everything that goes wrong in folks lives. How about taking responsibility for self. Being fat is a side affect of gluttony and being fat usually means you are lazy too. These people who are fat and claim they don’t eat that much are mentally ill or in denial that they aren’t eating too much. You just don’t get morbidly obese by eating like a bird folks . you are taking in more calories than you are burning it a fact the under active thyroid bullshit doesn’t fly. Sitting around and eating is what the welfares do they don’t work. If I insult people I’m trying to tell you the truth. It sounds harsh but a rational person should analyze their situation and take action to attack their problems .i know I’m getting thumbs down but trying to survive needing that many calories in a situation is gonna be selfish to others that need calories to sustain themselves. If your fat you should be ashamed. I don’t hate fat folks but I don’t want to work with them. I do more than my fair share as it is . Go to the gym and on a diet that is doable . For the people who smoke you must be rich because cigs are $9.00 a pack most smokers are a pack a day think about what $63 a week in you pocket can do. But hey you are rich after all and you don’t mind wrecking your health right you got medical insurance. These folks have no room to talk about survival they have already put themselves at disadvantage.

        • $9.00 a pack? Where is this? I pay $3.40 a pack in the Midwest.

          • Whats the difference between Beer Nuts and Deer Nuts?? A bag of “Beer Nuts” are about $1.79, and “Deer Nuts” are just under a Buck. Source – Off the Walking Dead Series re-run.

      53. The Grand Manipulation

        http://www.prisonplanet.com/the-grand-manipulation.html

        “If the government will not even tell us the truth about jobs and inflation, how can we believe the government when it tells us, without supplying any evidence, that Russian tank columns have entered Ukraine? Americans need to come to terms with the fact that they live in The Matrix, a world composed of fake information designed to control thought and behavior.”

      54. Talk about a posed photo; Look at the picture right behind SH~T for BRAINS (BRILLIANT!)

      55. Just on the news this morn the repubs want legislation to make people who get food stamp Benny’s show a photo ID and the critics are already saying it’s not fair that people should not need ID. This is a small step in the right direction what about drug testing people. If they had to choose dope over food and they chose dope they should starve maybe they will die and drop out of the gene pool. I think this is what should happen we should start a petition to enact legislation to make drug tests mandatory for food stamps . There are rehab programs out there for people let’s force their hand . It’s a small price to pay to get free food. A lot of the food stamp people sell them to the habib store guy for cigarettes all the stuff in the habib store is food stamp bought this ID will make it a little harder to fraud . But what if people know it’s not someone’s food stamp card and do it anyway will their be charges . The whole thing is a fraud anyway the best way is drug testing . This would be a good year for the tax payers. The welfares are useless to society what do they do for the community people there are too many of them nowadays some is ok but the number of the useless eaters is out of control we need population reduction by half at least . I’m sooo sick of carrying dead weight. There is work get off your lazy asses. It’s not that hard to make it .

      56. Of course he would say that. He and his Klan of merry community organizers have been living large for six years on our life savings, blood and sweat. Another good year and I’ll be wiped out, thanks for nothing you loser.

      57. @WWTI, while searching for some old Army records at my Dad’s the other day, I found some old toys. Do you remember MAC men with their vehicles? Also saw my GI Joes with their little M-1s and .45s. Not the 3″ guys,either but the 12″ guys with fuzzy hair. Also dug out real Tonka trucks made of metal. Made in America too.

      59. Here is something for all the SHTFP readers to think of.

        Baby boomers are people born during the demographic Post–World War II baby boom between the years 1946 and 1964. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the term “baby boomer” is also used in a cultural context
        NEXT WE HAVE A STAT FOR YOU

        (April 2014) Data from the U.S. Census Bureau show that there are 76.4 million baby boomers. There were actually a total of 76 million births in the United States from 1946 to 1964, the 19 years usually called the “baby boom.”

        NOW from roughly 2012 the above BB’s started retiring

        Think for yourself if 250000 of the BB’s retire and their jobs are taken by the current mob…JUST HOW MANY JOBS DO YOU THINK WERE CREATED…..Answer below
