Rationed Food and Purposeful Starvation
Canada Free Press ^ | October 28, 2013 | Dr. Ileana Johnson Paugh

I remember our daily food always coming from a long, long line at the end of which was a loaf of bread, a liter of milk, a stick of butter, a bottle of murky cooking oil, or a kilo of bones with traces of meat and fat on them.

[...]

If we wanted to eat, we learned at a very young age that we had to stand in long lines every day, often in bitter cold at 4 a.m. in hopes that the store would not run out of bread or milk by the time we made it to the front counter.

[...]

It wasn’t that the country did not produce enough food in spite of its disastrous centralized communist party planning. The mad dictator Ceausescu was determined to industrialize the country at the expense of people’s food – he exported so much to the West in exchange for technology and hard currency that the Romanians had to make do with the leftover food not fit for export.

[...]

But that was nothing compared to the Soviet plan to starve the Romanian population of Bessarabia in 1946-1947 in order to achieve collectivization. According to the 1897 census, almost 48% of the population was Moldovan and thus spoke Romanian. Bessarabia and Northern Bucovina were Romanian-held prior to the military occupation by the Soviet Red Army during June 28-July 4, 1940. To avoid a military conflict, Romania withdrew from the area following a Soviet ultimatum delivered on June 26. The Romanian province was recaptured by Ion Antonescu from 1941-1944 and then reoccupied by the Soviets in 1944. The regions were subsequently incorporated into the USSR....

“Most sheeperal would vehemently deny that the policies they support would lead to such a thing - “that’s not what we’re doing/intending”.”

Yep, that is why they MUST always blame their political opponents. They must create division and continue to demonize, then eventually their useful idiots will begin to cry for an “elimnation” of those standing in the way of the promised utopia.

“All she could say was “well, not everyone is going to be happy”.”

And there you have it. When they do get enough like her on board, then “some people must be sacrificed for the greater good,” will lead to mass graves. A key tenent of Marxism is that when ushering in the “revolution” then you MUST kill 10% of the population. The very productive and the “useless” are worthy of extermination, then the masses will fall into line. After that, you can begin to “remake man.”

These people are sick and dimented.

I am not quite 60. We lived in town so no animals other than chickens. We always had chickens. We were lucky to live in a farming community where everyone shared. When they would finish with the fields they would ‘release’ them and all the locals would swarm them to get whatever was left. All the neighbors shared. We would leave the house and would come home to a yard full of watermelons, green beans, etc. where a neighbor had dropped off part of their scavenge. Then the work would begin to put it all up. Grandma made her own lye soap and peanut brittle at Christmas. What a treat!!!! Hamburger was 3 lbs for a dollar and boy did we eat alot of hamburger. Lol. Bologna by the chunk and I couldn’t tell you how many times we had fried bologna for dinner. Leftover beans or fried potato sandwiches for lunch. If none of that was left we had mustard or mayonnaise sandwiches.
We lived in a hard but good time. The kids were run out of the house after breakfast and not allowed back in til lunch. Then out we would go til dusk. Noone worried. We would be fine.
I tell my grand kids stuff and they look at me like I’m nuts!!!

Truly spoken like a good little Communist.

>>There will not be a need for the US Government to ration food or to act to cut off food supplies. They have control of the medical services industry and our physical beings. All that they will need to do is withhold drugs or procedures from an “uncompliant pleeb” to show as an example to the masses and the sheep will herd right up.

Don’t get too frightened, this time it will be a humane death tho!<<

If you know where the hospital administrator home is never fear that you will be without medical care. He will see to it that you get the best of care in order for his wife or child to be returned safely.

Read Harvest of Sorrow. All about collectivization in Ukraine. There was a very good reason they had Ukrainian partisans fighting in the forest until the mid 50’s. Several million were starved to death in the 20’s.

Did you ever have jam sandwiches?
Two pieces of bread jammed together?

It is also hard to hide the fact that you aren’t losing weight as fast as everyone else.

That’s probably why kings said all the grain goes in the communal granary, where possible, so they can control its distribution.

My kids considered it cruel when I said I didn’t have to provide an after school snack - they had lunch and they would have dinner. I said if you’re hungry in the afternoon, we’ll pack bigger lunches. They retorted that the afterschool program had snacks, everyone snacks.
I said there are places in the world where people would be delighted to eat a full meal once a day, and you get three. Snacks are a luxury.
If you’re hungry, pack a bigger lunch or plan your own snack, but I’m not sending bags of finger foods for my kids and everyone else’s.

Thanks. I’ve seen it. Should be quite the eye-opener for some.

“My generation is dying out and soon there won’t be any left who remember when you had to grow your food instead of run to the grocery.”

Even worse, but related, there won’t be anyone left who was taught the real history of this country, the Constitution, and the pride if self-sufficiency.

At that point, this country will be ripe for the total fascist/communist takeover that we are being primed for.

The EBT leeches would never even consider that.
