I don't know who wrote thisparticular piece. It is excellent and I commend it to you. Never let it besaid that I did not warn you...

THE IMPLOSION IS ACCELERATING, PREPARE WHILE YOU CAN

For thirty years, I have been writing, speaking, imploring, and beggingothers to make rational, concrete plans for a time in life that would offerno quarter, give no mercy, and that would in a word be catastrophic. We arecoming face to face with that moment. You have so little time left to doanything that will give you a fighting chance. What are you doing?National Guard units are training and preparing for urban combat. TheUnited States has just reached an agreement with Canada's armed forces tocome in to this country and assume combat roles should they be needed inAmerican cities and towns. The Federal Reserve's last ditch effort to stemthe "blood loss" in the sub-prime and other currency markets has failed.The dollar has been abandoned for Euros. The stock market can't find itsass with both hands and a Chinese made, Wal-Mart sold ass finder. Israelhas demanded that all of the financial aid it receives from Washington(that's us) be paid for in Euros. The ultimate irony and slap in the face.Oil, dairy, wheat, wheat products, gold, silver, copper prices, the listgoes on and on, are racing for the stratosphere with no end in sight. Animplosion has begun and it has no known method of stopping or reversinguntil critical mass is reached. It will be followed by an explosion in theeconomy and the political realm unseen since the founding of this nation. The ultimate tragedy is, this was preventable. It could have been slowed orreversed at any time if a courageous and morally upright Congress hadrevealed the root causes for the disaster. If the socialist "generals" inCongress had been defeated or at least their programs thrown out at the timeof their introduction, billions would have been saved. If the truth and ourfirst president, General George Washington's advice had been followed, everyconflict since WWII would have been avoided. During the past 60 years,120,000 American soldiers would have survived, 500,000 would have beenphysically uninjured, and two trillion in direct costs and therehabilitation money grants to former enemies would have been saved.The size of the federal government would be less than half of what it istoday, the budget of the US government would be about 500 billion as opposedto two and one half trillion on a yearly basis and we would most likely beat relative peace. Lack of foolish and unnecessary regulations, taxes, andfrivolous lawsuits, would have allowed an explosion of small businesses tothrive. The lack of a Federal Reserve System would have allowed the UnitedStates to remain a creditor nation based on assets rather than sufferingunder a crushing debt imposed by the feds dictatorial control over thepeople's treasury. There are so many reasons why we could have avoided allof this. Thousands of perfectly good reasons IF employed by thousands ofhonest, moral, representatives who simply could have done the citizen'sbusiness the way God and sound governmental practices demanded would have,should have, and could have made the critical difference.Instead, we saw year after year, decade after decade, and now century aftercentury of greed, bring ultimate ruin to this marvelous nation calledAmerica. Although we did not want it, we have allowed it to happen. Itresolves nothing and does not buy us a way out, but we must accept ourresponsibility for this debacle and now prepare for what is coming.Friends, you must begin NOW if you have not done so, to protect yourselvesand your family from this pending as the disaster movies call it "extinctionlevel event" for our former way of life. If you hesitate, you will becaught in the maelstrom that is the next six months to five years of life inthe US. Pick your poison. If you like global warming and believe that isgoing to do you in, well then, build a refrigerated secure basement. If youlike the Planet X scenario, then prepare for 800 mph winds and basically a"pole shift" that will leave nothing at all. If you live in a nucleartarget city, or worse yet (worse??) yes, in a sanctuary city, then get outand get out quickly. Here is what you must do.Consider geography carefully. I don't care where you live now, choose your"Ride & Hide" (ride it out and hide from the enemy-you pick 'em) locationwith great wisdom. Coasts are bad, arid regions are bad, rural northern andmountainous regions are the best. Why? Fewer people mean fewer morons todeal with. Weather considerations, wild game availability, timberresources, fresh water, tillable soil, survival off the utility grid isdoable, herding small numbers of livestock is possible, also grazing horsescan be kept. Being at least 50 miles from the nearest interstate or majorhighway is preferable, the same with commercial airports and nuke plants.Holing up with really close friends or family is the ultimate best so thatexpenses, work loads and practical skills are shared to your best advantage.Be ready to leave your city home with only one or two hours alert time. Youmay not even have that. Practice getting home, loading, and leaving atleast once. Notify only those in your group that would be affected. Tellno one else what you are doing. Keep your gas tank full and an extra 5-10gallons. Securing the land with a rugged structure(s) and reinforced undergroundshelter can be expensive, however; it is an absolute. Stocking thatdomicile with stores of enduring foods, food components (flour, raw sugar,yeast, salt, etc.) medicines or natural remedies (apple vinegar, honey,olive leaf extract, etc.) an electric generator and at least 500 gallons ofdiesel, 100 gallons of kerosene for lamps, tools you know the drill. Thereare many sites available to assist you in stockpiling long term necessitiesright at NWV. You will be happy to know that your government in Washington has assistedthese efforts to protect your family from ANY kind of disaster by making ita felony to harbor many items (as listed in the Patriot Act II). You know,be wise, be prepared, but if you go more than a week's worth, we'll put youin one of 800 non-existent Halliburton model "stay for a while, we'll leavethe lights on " Washington style long term family "vacation" detentioncampsites built with illegal or prison labor, right here in the good old USof A.Moving your money freely will become even more difficult as banks begin torestrict the amounts that can be transferred from savings accounts and othershort-term investment vehicles under their immediate control. Usingpersonal checks outside of your own community will become increasinglydifficult, soon. Bank drafts or money orders will do for a while, but manyreal estate, large business or supply companies will require that you jumpover difficult hurdles so that they are not left to chase you down forpayment.Securing advance amounts of medical supplies, especially prescriptions andantibiotics (Tami flu, Amoxicillin, Keflexin, etc.) will be very difficultas most insurance companies will only reimburse for 30 days or less. If youhave any serious dental issues, (abscessed teeth), surgeries, glasses orother necessary medical needs, get them done, now.Consider transferring available 401K, IRA accounts, or other liquid plansinto gold or silver before their availability or price are literally beyondreach. A penalty for withdrawal is not desirable, but highly preferable toempty or inaccessible accounts next month or whenever.Have GPS chips removed from your newer vehicles, laptops if possible, andprepare to leave your cell phones in the lake 100 miles from your retreat.Leave your ID chipped pets at the humane society and any animals you raisefor food consumption must be newly born and chip free (many good patriotsare telling the state and federal USDA to, well, you know, but that won'tlast much longer as most states are going into compliance regardless of whatthe law says, the constitution says, common sense says or what God himselfsays. The same is true with the REAL ID. That card is also becoming, stateby state, the final nail in the coffin of personal liberty. Consider it themark of the beast (I don't know if it is, but it could be). The personal IDchip is without a doubt that mark, I personally believe. I will not UNDERANY CIRCUMSTANCES take that chip, no matter what it ultimately costs me.That is why, among many reasons listed here, common sense and the urgencythat is coming at you like the freight train from Hell, you must completeyour personal retreat plans, NOW.Are you getting the picture dear friends? Laugh at me if you will.Marginalize me and others who are begging you to make this effort while youcan, but hear this: IF YOU ARE CAUGHT IN A CITY OR WITHOUT THE MOST BASICOF NEEDS, YOU WILL NOT SURVIVE A CRISES.That is the absolute truth and the absolute facts of life. You will beamong the first victims of the event or its immediate aftermath. Rovinggangs of real pirates and sadistic tormentors will only seal your fate in amost cruel fashion.Ask yourself this single question. What do you have now that is so worthkeeping (suburb mortgaged home, SUV, boat, hockey equipment, a JOB that iskilling you, etc.) over your life and that of your family? Is your morningcup of Starbucks worth this effort? For God's sake, WAKE UP!! If youhaven't really cared who or what the Federal Reserve is, well, don't worryabout it now. Just get your money out and do something with it while youcan. If you haven't followed the presidential debates, then don't watchthem now, either. Decide for yourself what you are going to do for yourfamily and this nation by becoming independent and "free" in spite of thisand the world government's absolute determination to rule you completely andforever. Can you let go of football and beer long enough to answer thatsingle question? I'm ready, some of you are ready, many of you are not. Ifyou refuse to get ready, then I bid you farewell. You were never my fellowcountryman to begin with. God help you.Your last consideration must be in terms of self-defense. This will drawthe ire of many morons who were just waiting for this. To you, I say, don'tever buy a gun. You would only eventually supply a criminal with one moreweapon. To everyone else, think shotgun, first. A 12 gauge, 20 inch rifledbarrel chambered for 3" shells. Buy at least 1000 rounds of OO Buckshot fordefense, 1000 rounds of slugs for large game, and 1000 rounds of #6 shot forsmall game and birds. These are all round good loads for most situations.Professional hunters may argue a bit, but I tell you from experience huntingand in law enforcement, this will do it. The make of the weapon is yourchoice, but I would stick with Remington or Mossberg as my first pick.There are others, check with a reputable sporting store to assist you. ARuger .22 rifle and a 1000 rounds will do for quieter small game. A .308and 500 rounds will do for long range whatever you need to do shooting-ifyou get my drift. A Ruger Mini-14 rancher model chambering .223 withseveral 20 or 30 round clips and 1000 rounds will be good for when you areoutnumbered, and a .45 Government model Kimber or Springfield Armory pistolwith 10, 10 round clips and 1000 rounds will do you well. That's roughly$4500 worth of weaponry. Cheap in defense of all that you have. A goodfour wheeled vehicle of any kind for off road use rounds you out. I'mpretty good at spending your money, hmm? Forget the vacation that wouldhave cost you that anyway. Forget the new $50,000 truck that you justcouldn't live without. You will LIVE if you use that money wisely. Youhave just weeks or a few months-MAYBE-to be positioned for any possibility.Natural or manmade. If I am wrong, sell it in a couple of years to someonewho still sees the need and you'll be free to be at risk again.This is the article that many of you have been pleading with me to write forover six months. I did not want to present it prematurely and yet it'sanybody's guess as to when it will be too late. There is a risk for thewriter of such messages. The risk is that many will still ignore it, sticktheir heads in a little deeper or laugh nervously as they dismiss thecontent with, "he's a typical right-wing worrier, this just can't happen."Well, I pray to God Almighty you are right and I am wrong. But then again,no matter what happens, I'm ready, my family and I have a good chance areyou ready, do you have any chance at all?
