You’re right. It is a silly statement to say that 2012 won’t see a famine. No one is saying there will be a famine in 2012.
Food shortages are coming. There will be those that are enslaved to the government who will have to line up (literally or figuratively) to be fed, and then there will be the rest of the population who knew this was coming and figured out a way to become self-sustaining. These people will not be labeled preppers but “Enemies of the State.”
If Obammie the Commie manages to heist the election in 2012, that is when he and his communists and globalists will really tighten down the screws on the thumbs of Americans.
Troubles are coming. When exactly? No one knows. I seriously doubt 2012, as TPTB will do what they need to to defeat Romney (who would not solve the problem anyway) and ensure their puppet with the big ears is in the WH with his white-hating, America-hating, middle-class hating, komrades, which includes pumping the economy enough to float through 2012.
I agree. I think things are going to take a decided turn for the better this summer. You watch, gas prices are already going down some. Watch them drop like a rock and a tax rebate be offered. I'll betcha unemployment figures will be manipulated to make it look like employment is going up and interest rates at the banks will start going up.
Then watch the SHTF right after the elections, depending on who gets in.
