McGrath: “Somebody In Government Is Afraid Of What Is Coming”
SHTF Plan ^ | 10/9/13 | Mac Slavo

Posted on 10/09/2013 8:18:30 PM PDT by Kartographer

We’re talking scenarios much more severe than the Great Depression.

But this isn’t just happening in America. Switzerland recently engaged in war games that simulated an economic collapse scenario, as well as an invasion by bankrupted nations and millions of refugees. In 2011, the British government developed plans to evacuate their citizens from European countries in expectation of monetary and economic crisis.

The exercises and drills may be compartmentalized so that most who are partaking in them don’t really know why, but there are those in the higher echelons of power that know very well what the end game is going to be.

None of this is a coincidence.

If you aren’t taking steps to prepare for a new paradigm – one plagued with destitution, riots, starvation and bloodshed – then you are going to be a victim of what’s coming.

Gordon Brown is right. When the economic system breaks down or the dollar collapses food, fuel, and medicine will be nearly impossible to acquire. The experience of Greeks, who saw this first hand, is a perfect example.

The only option for the government at that point will be to control the looting and violence that follows by declaring Martial Law and locking this country down.

Thanks for mentioning “Connections”. Had seen Connections 2 and 3 but never the original.

Every now and again, there’s something new available on YouTube from the pre-internet past that makes me realize how dumb we have become since. What a great series.

“Good. Stay in the Philippines and worry.”
_________________________________________________
No, old boy, I am not really worried. I can still live without SS, but I may have to give up my red wine :(.

Welcome to the “dog in a manger gang”. They hate my guts because I am not enduring their pain. Civilization exceeds by those who are not subject to the status quo. You must also hate the founding fathers that left their countries.
I do not brag about anything. I simply point out that there is life beyond the Obamination.
No doubt, you prefer the Communist way..shoot people that try to escape. I saw the gun ramps in Slovakia, where they shot people swimming the Danube to freedom in Austria
By the way, you and your pals have yet to define “fight”.
Can you come up with something better then spit balls and childish post on forums?
I love America as it was founded. I do not love the people that elected the Commie, and re-elected him.
They are not from my ancestry, Uncle Sam, 1812

Can you tell me how you are fighting the Obamination?
No you can not, but I do far more by explaining to foreigners just how filthy and disgusting Obumbo is.
I still vote, and I am doing far more then you are.

I know, you are really upset that I do not feel your pain.
Now, go suck an egg, then get back to me.

I hear that train a-coming, it's rolling down the track
Obamacare and a train wreck, brought on by Barack

I'm stuck in FEMA prison, I don't know what I've done
But that train just keeps derailing, until my country's gone.

the worst would be a Civil War/Race War as they have had in other places.

The race war has already begun.

Oh really?

Have you not heard of the concept of “zero till”?

It’s actually a better method for sustainability because it builds the soil instead of degrading it.

I watched that series and read the associated book as part of a History of Technology course in college c. 1980. Great course.

I think the storm is already here via QE and the resultant rising unemployment and inflation. I don’t think social degradation will be sudden, like a Selco or Ferfal situation. IMO things will continue to degrade with loss of currency value and economic opportunity. The only shock I see is when the USD is dropped as reserve currency. That will impart a ~35% hike in consumer prices. It may already be happening, affecting real inflation rate, as many countries are reaching their own exchange rate agreements for use their bi-lateral trades (Russia - China, China- Brazil, etc).

Re #38

Those are EXECELLENT thoughts greeneyes.

There is alot in play right now and none of it is good.

Hospitals being told to prepare for mass casualty events, nat’l guard units training for grid collapses, increased activity around FEMA facilities.

All this comes first hand from local folks.

Lots of dots to connect and the picture they're revealing is nothing short of UGLY.

Prepare now for suffer later. From what I can tell, we have a few months left. If that.

Besides, in the winter time apart from collecting firewood there are LOOONNNGGG periods where absolutely nothing happens.

My local Wally World has hot chocolate packets at just over $.10 per in 30 count boxes. I've been stocking up. The wisdom of peanut butter AND granola bars should not be ignored. Large containers of one minute oats has a ring to it. And canned chicken at under a dollar a can is soon to vanish. [BTW, the old fashioned hand-crank coffee grinder can turn one minuet oats into a useable flour for baking.]

The upright freezer in my garage has more 1/2 gallon and gallon jugs of clean water frozen in them than it does food stuffs. Since I have a septic tank for household effluence, old trashcans can serve as water for flushing and bathing by merely stopping up the downspouts of the back gutters so the rain water spills over and down into properly placed of cans on the back deck. When a milk jugs is emptied of milk, it gets washed out with cold then hot water, then a splash of 10 to 1 Clorox water, a cold rinse, and filled with filtered water and into the freezer, or dried then collapsed and lid tightly on and into a black trash bag for future filling.

There are lots of little ideas that one can come up with, if a little thought is applied to the things we now waste and things we can do to save and prepare for scare days ahead. I pity the freaks caught in the death zones called 'big cities'. I practice to meet the eventual scurrying survivors who will range out from the death zones to pillage and destroy. THIS is what democrip rule comes down to ...

Deserter AlexW has not heeded Jim Robinson's warning to cease criticizing Freepers who love their country and stay here to save it. He has now nastily added another Freeper, raybbr, into our group of patriots who won't leave our country as he did. Welcome, raybbr, to the patriot group.

Alex has numerous posts on this thread. Here are selections from his post 45: “Welcome to the “dog in a manger gang”. They hate my guts because I am not enduring their pain. By the way, you and your pals have yet to define “fight”. Can you come up with something better then spit balls and childish post on forums? Can you tell me how you are fighting the Obamination? No you can not, but I do far more by explaining to foreigners just how filthy and disgusting Obumbo is. I still vote, and I am doing far more then you are. I know, you are really upset that I do not feel your pain. Now, go suck an egg, then get back to me.”

Alex has said he will never return to this country - fine, stop trashing America and Freepers and he can drown himself in tropical alcoholic drinks on his third world beach in the Philippines. He is a POS and will remain a POS and he needs to get the hell off this forum.

“Please don’t feed the troll.”

Thanks for pinging me so I can read the crap he has posted here. He isn’t a troll - he is a deserter who wants you and the rest of us to leave our country and go to a third world country as he did. He is disgusting.

I really am not sure what is offensive about wanting a CD player at the end of the world as we know it. Doesn’t the apocalypse need a soundtrack?

Shooting zombies to the rhythm of a good beat sounds like it would be efficient.
