PREPPERS CORNER

By: John Ready

Why Prepare for Disasters with Food and Water?

• Are you are a church with a food outreach program?

• Are you concerned that civil disobedience could disrupt the food supply chain in the U.S.?

• Are you prepared in the event of a national emergency?

• Are you prepared in the event of a tornado, hurricane or flood?

• Do you and your neighbors have a plan?

Some call advance preparation prudent, while others call it hoarding or paranoid. Perhaps you should ask yourself the question; am I prepared to feed myself, my family and my neighbors if anything happens to disrupt the food supply or an emergency arises? Food and water is your best hedge against the tough breaks life can dish out.

So the next time someone calls you paranoid for being prepared, let them know that the Boy Scout motto is; be prepared. You don’t want to end up like many of the people of New Orleans did during Hurricane Katrina and be without food, water and provisions. I’m John Ready and I’m here to help you stay prepared.

Why the Sudden Rush to Stock Your Pantry?

(A serious matter with some minor humor injected)

I know a number of survival advocates including former military personnel and pastors who tell us to stock up on food for the long-term and even what we buy at the grocery store for daily needs. I truly understand the mindset, but when I hear about workers from the postal service say they have been instructed to have 30-40 days of food on hand, perhaps we need to delve further into the matter. If the local postmaster made the suggestion, that’s one thing. If the directive was handed down from the top and they’ve gone postal (no pun intended) then perhaps we should examine the situation a little more closely.

1. A 30 day supply of food at the grocery store could easily cost a family of 4 around $800.00 plus.

2. Not many families can afford to pay $800.00 out this payday for immediate food.

3. Families and individuals on limited incomes are unable to meet such a request.

What do they know that the rest of us don’t?

1. Is it Bird flu/H1N1? Or H979 Flu?

2. Is North Korea more powerful than we are being told?

3. Is our economy about to collapse?

4. Are the powers that govern going to devalue the currency and we wake up to a new dollar worth 20% of the old one?

5. Are we being blackmailed by a foreign country?

6. Have we actually sold our sovereignty to China or Russia?

7. Do we have an unknown threat that has been identified, but is still classified?

I recently discovered a company that sells food to the public. In order for you to realize savings, you order a half or full truckload of your favorites and split the cost.

So when 100 people from a church or neighborhood get together and split the cost, each member pays $185.00 and receives 3 times the amount of food they would get at the grocery store for the same price. That included freight!  Banana Boxes as well as cases of peas, corn and many other veggies plus spaghetti, drinks, paper goods and tons of other edible delights including candy, canned fruits, canned soups and everything is in date and fresh. This is not salvage food, nor is it throw away donations.

This is a resourceful way for people and groups to get together and save big money on their food bill. The company even delivers to your location or to your private retreat or bug out location if you order a quarter, half or full truckload. So, if you believe that the cold war is over, please disregard everything written in this article. Keep only enough food in your pantry to supply you or your family for 1 or 2 days and you may now return to your mind control tv shows.

Remember Hurricane Katrina and for heaven’s sake, stop stocking up on ammo and guns. Glenn Beck thinks the FEMA camps are real and the DHS has stocked up on automatic weapons and billions of dollars in ammo and armored personnel carriers. The cat is out of the bag. Get along now and be a good green weenie and make sure your cows don’t pass gas (that will be taxed) and that you don’t drink too much water.

Invest everything you have in questionable stocks and any other Government run business you can find. Pray (which qualifies you as a Terrorist) for some of our current leaders to retire or go into exile and more importantly, move in with you. Nevertheless, be sure to stock up on food. I am all for saving anything when it comes to money, especially on food. If you need to find me, I'll be under a tree dressed in a sheet waiting to be taken away.
