Alex is spot on concerning the importance of family farms during a crisis. My father few up on a small pig farm in eastern Kansas, surrounded by other small family farms during the depression. He said that food was never an issue as the neighbors simply traded what they had an excess of for what they were short on. At one point, a local farmer became unable to work at all. The surrounding families divided up the cooking so that each day, the injured farmer and his family were fed, and fed well. Our family was responsible for Tuesday’ meals. They’ve done their best to destroy the sense of community in this country, and it’s far good reason. Community is strength Community is insurance Community is safety There is nothing more problematic to their plans than neighbors who know each other well. Go say hello to yours today…

No to digital money. Without cash and a grey and blackmarket most people would be under total control.

I told my wife one week ago, that we should consider moving to her home country Indonesia and start a homestead. This conversation pretty much confirms my fears of Europe becoming a battleground yet again.
