I can’t blame people for wanting to stock up on things. With Obama as our “Dear Leader” who knows what might happen!
From Switzerland - Cheeseburger in a Can! A Swiss company has created this easy eating solution. It's an all-beef patty, lettuce, tomato and cheese on a sesame seed bun - sold in a can that retails for about 5 bucks and can stay fresh for up to a year!

There was no mention of guns and ammo in this article. Now that everyone knows who he is and who’s got the food, guns will be required to hold onto his stash.
The police is reactive and deals with crime AFTER it happens. Likewise, FEMA the Red Cross etc. deal with a disaster AFTER it happens and what you get, when, how much etc. is all questionable.
The wise man accepts the fact that he does not own nature. Volcanoes, earthquakes, floods, avalanches, tsunamis, tornadoes, hurricanes/typhoons, massive fires, epidemics, war, technological/infrastructural failures, civil unrest happens and preparing accordingly is the prudent thing to do. The ones laughing and calling those preparing names, claiming they are silly idiots who cling to their guns and God, they are the ones who like after Katrina seldom look back and ask why they didn't make basic preparations. Their abdication of all personal responsibility to prepare is the same reason why these folk beg Obama for social health care or breathing more life into the dead social security. They are the ones who see no need in owning a gun and in fact see it antiquated and silly. Ultimately as humans we are responsible for ourselves first and foremost and no government can substitute for this.
Ping!
The way I see it, at best we’re heading for huge inflation, with the printing of all this money, due to the inability to pay interest on the national debt. So just about any product, be it soap or motor oil is as cheap as we’ll likely see in our lifetimes.
That’s best case. A worse case will be shortages, as the government tries to placate people screaming about inflation by trying to control prices. With shortages, you wait in line to buy rationed quantities of goods...life is miserable. So why not buy your soap and motor oil now...when you can still buy unlimited quantities (I have about 300 bars of soap stockpiled).
That is a worse case...just a miserable life. The worst case is civil breakdown. Then have guns ready and hope you can fight off the barbarians. I don’t expect to do well in that case...heck, I cannot even find ammo.
In that entire article, not one mention of gold, guns or ammo.
Question (& not rhetorical)... why would people feel they could be safe & just hunker down and somehow sit out unrest, hyperinflation, etc. in urban or suburban areas? Perhaps it depends on who is doing the maurroding...civilians or brownshirts?
Would it not be wiser to go either off the grid to some totally rural area or even to Canada or Alaska?
Thots?
It’s not the economy, stupid.
It’s the stupid communists!
