What $1 Trillion Dollars Really Represents

I picked up a trivia fact from Greg Simmons newsletter and started doing some calculations that will put our current govt. budget deficit into perspective.  Remember, this is the annual unfunded spending beyond revenues of fiat, funny money created out of thin air.  This is not to even mention the total govt. debt which is monstrously larger.

If you had walked the earth over two millennia and had started spending a million dollars per day every single day since the birth of Jesus, you would have spent only one half of our present $1.5 trillion annual govt. budget deficit!!! You would have managed to spend in over two thousand years only half of what the US govt. “over” spends per year!

I’m asking Starr to send this to our local county-wide self- reliance preparedness group, BSOSC (Bitterroot Survival Outfitting Systems Co-op) to reinforce to all why I’m so gung-ho in getting our barter based alternative micro- economic system developed, along the lines of the guidance in Tom Greco’s book, The End of Money and The Future of Civilization.  My notion is the sooner the better to have it fully functioning before the inescapable crash.

I reckon no one is so delusional as to think this can keep up much longer without crashing into the Greatest Depresssion ever.  There is still some bit of time to get out of US dollars which are in an unprecedented dilution mode.  Each day many millions of dollars are created out of nothing, rapidly  diluting the purchasing power value of your present dollars.

Once again, I urge folks to get their funds, however meager, out of US dollars and invested into what we call F.A.M.I.L.Y. commodities, so you will be prepared for the coming storm.

Happy Preparedness Trails,

Jim Rawles Article on Haiti Earthquake

This is a case study example happening now in Haiti. An expert on disasters has said you have 72 hours from the time the “event” happens till a complete breakdown of society occurs. You have 72 hours to get out. It has now been 48 hours since the quake in Haiti. Crime and thugs are starting to get the idea that they can get away with pretty much anything. If order isn’t restored in 72 hours, the situation will become severe. (Again, this according to the expert)

Cinnamon and Honey

Honey is the only food on the planet that will not spoil or rot. It will do what some call turning to sugar. In reality honey is always honey. However, when left in a cool dark place for a long time it will do what I rather call “crystallizing”.   When this happens I loosen the lid, boil some water, and sit the honey container in the hot water, turn off the heat and let it liquefy. It is then as good as it ever was. Never boil honey or put it in a microwave. To do so will kill the enzymes in the honey.

Bet the drug companies won’t like this one getting around.  Facts on Honey and Cinnamon:  It is found that a mixture of honey and Cinnamon cures most diseases. Honey is produced in most of the countries of the world. Scientists of today also accept honey as a ‘Ram Ban’ (very effective) medicine for all kinds of diseases.  Honey can be used without any side effects for any kind of diseases.

Today’s science says that even though honey is sweet, if taken in the right dosage as a medicine, it does not harm diabetic patients.   Weekly World News, a magazine in Canada , in its issue dated 17 January,1995 has given the following list of diseases that can be cured by honey and cinnamon as researched by western scientists:

HEART DISEASES:
Make a paste of honey and cinnamon powder, apply on bread, instead of jelly and jam, and eat it regularly for breakfast. It reduces the cholesterol in the arteries and saves the patient from heart attack.  Also, those who have already had an attack, if they do this process daily, they are kept miles away from the next attack.. Regular use of the above process relieves loss of breath and strengthens the heart beat.  In America and Canada , various nursing homes have treated patients successfully and have found that as you age, the arteries and veins lose their flexibility and get clogged; honey and cinnamon revitalize the arteries and veins.

ARTHRITIS:
Arthritis patients may take daily, morning and night, one cup of hot water with two spoons of honey and one small teaspoon of cinnamon powder. If taken regularly even chronic arthritis can be cured. In a recent research conducted at the Copenhagen University, it was found that when the doctors treated their patients with a mixture of one tablespoon Honey and half teaspoon Cinnamon powder before breakfast, they found that within a week, out of the 200 people so treated, practically 73 patients were totally relieved of pain, and within a month, mostly all the patients who could not walk or move around because of arthritis started walking without pain.

BLADDER INFECTIONS:
Take two tablespoons of cinnamon powder and one teaspoon of honey in a glass of lukewarm waterand drink it. It destroys the germs in the bladder.

CHOLESTEROL:
Two tablespoons of honey and three teaspoons of Cinnamon Powder mixed in 16 ounces of tea water, given to a cholesterol patient, was found to reduce the level of cholesterol in the blood by 10 percent within two hours.   As mentioned for arthritic patients, if taken three times a day, any chronic cholesterol is cured. According to information received in the said Journal, pure honey taken with food daily relieves complaints of cholesterol.

COLDS:
Those suffering from common or severe colds should take one tablespoon lukewarm honey with 1/4 spoon cinnamon powder daily for three days. This process will cure most chronic cough, cold, and clear the sinuses.

UPSET STOMACH:
Honey taken with cinnamon powder cures stomach ache and also clears stomach ulcers from the root.

GAS:
According to the studies done in India and Japan, it is revealed that if Honey is taken with cinnamon powder the stomach is relieved of gas.

IMMUNE SYSTEM:
Daily use of honey and cinnamon powder strengthens the immune system and protects the body from bacteria and viral attacks. Scientists have found that honey has various vitamins and iron in large amounts. Constant use of Honey strengthens the white blood corpuscles to fight bacterial andviral diseases.

INDIGESTION:
Cinnamon powder sprinkled on two tablespoons of honey taken before food relieves acidity and digests the heaviest of meals.

INFLUENZA:
A scientist in Spain has proved that honey contains a natural ‘ Ingredient’ which kills the influenza germs and saves the patient from flu.

LONGEVITY:
Tea made with honey and cinnamon powder, when taken regularly, arrests the ravages of old age. Take four spoons of honey, one spoon of cinnamon powder, and three cups of water and boil to make like tea. Drink 1/4 cup, three to four times a day. It keeps the skin fresh and soft and arrests old age. Life spans also increase and even a 100 year old, starts performing the chores of a 20-year-old..

PIMPLES:
Three tablespoons of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder paste. Apply this paste on the pimples before sleeping and wash it next morning with warm water. If done daily for two weeks, it removes pimples from the root.

SKIN INFECTIONS:
Applying honey and cinnamon powder in equal parts on the affected parts cures eczema, ringworm and all types of skin infections.

WEIGHT LOSS:
Daily in the morning one half hour before breakfast on an empty stomach, and at night before sleeping, drink honey and cinnamon powder boiled in one cup of water. If taken regularly, it reduces the weight of even the most obese person. Also, drinking this mixture regularly does not allow the fat to accumulate in the body even though the person may eat a high calorie diet.

CANCER:
Recent research in Japan and Australia has revealed that advanced cancer of the stomach and bones have been cured successfully. Patients suffering from these kinds of cancer should daily take one tablespoon of honey with one teaspoon of cinnamon powder for one month three times a day.

FATIGUE:
Recent studies have shown that the sugar content of honey is more helpful rather than being detrimental to the strength of the body. Senior citizens, who take honey and cinnamon powder in equal parts, are more alert and flexible. Dr. Milton, who has done research, says that a half tablespoon of honey taken in a glass of water and sprinkled with cinnamon powder, taken daily after brushing and in the afternoon at about 3:00 P.M. when the vitality of the body starts to decrease, increases the vitality of the body within a week.

BAD BREATH:
People of South America, first thing in the morning, gargle with one teaspoon of honey and cinnamon powder mixed in hot water, so their breath stays fresh throughout the day.

HEARING LOSS:
Daily morning and night honey and cinnamon powder, taken in equal parts restores hearing. Remember when we were kids? We had toast with real butter and cinnamon sprinkled on it!

Preserving and Reactivating Kefir Grains

Preserving

To dry kefir grains, rinse and drain as for wet. Then place them on 2 layers of clean cheesecloth and air dry them at room temperature for 36-48 hours. If the room doesn’t have good circulation, use a fan, but don’t direct it right at the grains; you’ll have them all over the room! When dry, place the grains in an envelope or wrap them in aluminum foil. Kept in a cool, dry place, dried grains will remain active for 12 to 18 months.

Reactivation

If left dry and kept in room temperature you can reactivate them slowly.  Soak them in water for 4-8 hours and transfer to another container along with approx. one cup of milk.  Let them settle and feed on it first for about a day.  Transfer the grains and add a bigger batch of milk.  Slowly increasing it day after day until it can culture a quart and so on.  Slowly but surely, you will get it back to it’s happy healthy self.  Also, if you don’t have milk, use sugar water to store the grains in while you are keeping them in the refrigerator, like if you are going on vacation.  (Sugar is needed to feed the grains).  They can last 2 or 3 weeks like this.

Alexander Tyler on “Democracy”

About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh, had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic some 2,000 years earlier: “A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government. “A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. “From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship. “The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years. During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:

  1. From bondage to spiritual faith;
  2. From spiritual faith to great courage;
  3. From courage to liberty;
  4. From liberty to abundance;
  5. From abundance to complacency;
  6. From complacency to apathy;
  7. From apathy to dependence;
  8. From dependence back into bondage

We cannot escape the laws of the universe, as history does “repeatedly” repeat itself!!! Only those who prepare now have any chance of escaping bondage or worse.

Electro Magnetic Pulse “EMP” 101

“EMP 101″ A Basic Primer & Suggestions for Preparedness
William R. Forstchen Ph.D.

WHAT IS AN EMP?

EMP is shorthand for Electro Magnetic Pulse. It is a rather unusual and frightening by – product when a nuclear bomb is detonated above the earth’s atmosphere. We all know that our atmosphere and the magnetic field which surrounds our planet is a thin layer which not only keeps us alive, but also protects us from dangerous radiation from the sun. On a fairly regular basis there are huge solar storms on the sun’s surface which emit powerful jets of deadly radiation. If not for the protective layer of our atmosphere and magnetic field, those storms would fry us. At times though, the storm is so power that enough disruptive energy reaches the earth’s surface that it drowns out radio waves and even shorts electrical power grids…this happened seve ral years back in Canada.

Motivating Article to Raise Your Own Food Animals‏

This article should be encouragement enough to raise and consume you own food where at least you have a measure of control over its quality.

FRANKENSTEIN, Mo. – The mystery started the day farmer Russ Kremer got between a jealous boar and a sow in heat.  The boar gored Kremer in the knee with a razor-sharp tusk. The burly pig farmer shrugged it off, figuring: “You pour the blood out of your boot and go on.” But Kremer’s red-hot leg ballooned to double its size. A strep infection spread, threatening his life and baffling doctors. Two months of multiple antibiotics did virtually nothing.
The answer was flowing in the veins of the boar.
