Sure I always tell you that it is a good idea to store food but today I want to get you really serious about doing this both to mitigate threats and to enhance your life on an everyday basis. While I strive to keep the tone of TSP upbeat once in a while we must look at concrete underlying threats to our lives.  Every major organization that monitors the food supply is saying the same thing right now about our global supply of food, simply put, shortages are coming and they won’t be going away.

Today we take a moment to pay attention to a variety of current events that tell us why preparing is so important.  We won’t be pretending to know the future today, simply observing the current situations and trends they show us.  Today’s show may also seem a little political at times but ONLY because politicians are effecting our current and future stability. My goal during most of the political stuff today is to focus on math and fact, what you believer politically is irrelevant in the face of math and fact.  Please keep that in mind and if you get … Continue reading →

We are going to shift gears a bit today and discuss 7 economic and political events.  These events are being discussed in varying degrees by the main stream at this time.  What I want to do today is discuss how they effect us from a self sufficiency, prepper and liberty oriented community both short and long term. The California Water Shortage (forum link with photos) GM Flax in Canada (story link 1 – story link 2 – what is triffid) Jim Rodgers warns of a Property bubble in China (story link) Scott Brown’s wins in  the people’s seat in Massachusetts … Continue reading →

My view is yes, sooner or later it is inevitable due to declines in production and resources and expansion of population.  I also think we should not engage in alarmism at this point either.  Much like peak oil this is a real problem that will get worse but over a rather long period of time, not tomorrow morning. Today we also briefly discuss the defection of Republican Arlen Spector and we do another swine flu (h1n1) update.
