The prophet Isaiah warns us that in the last days God is going to “turn the world upside down.” He declares, “Behold, the Lord maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down” (Isaiah 24:1).

According to this prophecy, sudden judgment is coming upon the earth, and it will change everything in a single hour. Within that short span, the whole world will witness fast-falling destruction upon a city and a nation, and the world will never be the same.

If you are attached to material things — if you love this world and the things of it — you won’t want to hear what Isaiah has prophesied. In fact, even to the most righteous of God’s people, what Isaiah says might seem unthinkable. Many would surely ask, “How can an entire world be stricken in one hour?”

If we didn’t believe the Bible is God’s pure Word, few of us would take Isaiah’s prophecy seriously. But Scripture makes it clear: in a single hour, the world is going to change. The church is going to change. And every individual on earth is going to change.

The apostle John gives a similar warning in Revelation. He speaks of destructive judgment coming upon a city and nation: “In one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her…. For in one hour so great riches is come to nought” (Revelation 18:8, 17).

In Isaiah’s prophecy, the city under judgment is cast into confusion. Every house is shut up, with no one coming or going. “The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in” (Isaiah 24:10). The entire city is left desolate: “In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction” (24:12). All entrances and exits to the city are gone. The passage indicates that a fire has come, a blast that has shaken the very foundations of the earth (see 24:6).

We who live in New York City know something about this kind of scene. When the Twin Towers were attacked, the ominous fires and smoke could be seen ascending to heaven for miles. Recently, New Yorkers panicked as a mass of steam erupted from below a city street. People ran in all directions screaming, “Is this it? Is this the end-all attack?”

Today, multitudes of secular prophets are saying a nuclear attack is inevitable. The target they mention most often is New York, but it could happen in any major city: London, Paris, Tel Aviv, Washington. Neither Isaiah nor John names the city upon which destructive judgment falls.I don’t intend this message to frighten anyone.

Let me make clear at this point: I don’t intend this message to frighten anyone. Paul tells us that as disciples of Jesus Christ, we have already passed from death into life. We who call on Jesus as Lord should be confident that no matter what happens in this world, his shed blood saves and redeems us.

Therefore, we are not to fear any newscast, but rather to be attentive to what the Lord is doing in the world. Like many people, I hear grievous reports that make me want to tune everything out. But the truth is, God moves in the midst of such times, and through them he speaks warnings to all who would hear his voice.Isaiah’s prophecy points clearly to our generation.

I believe, along with many eminent Bible scholars, that Isaiah’s prophecy points to the last days. By that, I mean our present time. In short, sudden judgment is coming, and Scripture strongly indicates it is now at the door.

At this point you may be wondering: “How can we be sure we’re the generation this prophecy points to?” We can know by two reasons that such judgments are imminent:

1.A growing number of prophets warn of an apocalyptic disaster at the door. When I use the word “prophets,” I speak not just of those in the church. I’m talking also about “secular prophets.”

There are several precedents for secular prophets in Scripture. God used Assyria as his rod of correction with Israel. And he appointed King Cyrus as his servant to assist Israel: “(The Lord) saith of Cyrus, He is my shepherd, and shall perform all my pleasure” (Isaiah 44:28).

Likewise today, God uses secular prophets to send warnings. These become “his prophets” for a season. And their prophecies can be harder than those delivered by believers. The message I’m writing here is mild compared to the prophecies being delivered by all manner of secular voices. Just check your newspaper or radio reports.

“Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets” (Amos 3:7).

2.Sudden destruction comes when the cup of violence overflows. Sensuality, perversion and greed are running rampant throughout our society. Yet, when God sent the Flood upon the earth, it was because of a worldwide eruption of violence: “The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence” (Genesis 6:11).

Right now, there are numerous wars and bloody uprisings taking place around the globe. Yet foremost in my mind is the violence being waged against children worldwide:

• I think of the sexual violence of pedophiles. Children all over the world are being raped, kidnapped and forced into enslavement in the global sex trade. Recently, a pedophile in the U.S. was discovered running a web site that advises other pedophiles on the easiest places to pick up children. There is no law in place to stop this man. The world’s largest church denomination has spent hundreds of millions of dollars to settle the claims of those who were molested in childhood by clergy. Tell me, how long will God endure the pitiful cries of children who are molested by those who would represent Christ?
• Thousands of children in Africa are being slaughtered in tribal wars, hacked to death by machetes. Young boys — even those under ten years of age — are enlisted into tribal militias and forced to murder men in initiation rites.
• Here in the U.S., the blood of millions of aborted babies cries out from the ground.
• Reports of school murders no longer shock many of us but continue to terrorize our children. We may grow hardened to such reports, but God’s heart is grieved by them.

I tell you, there is no worse violence than the brutalizing of children. Heaven is crying out, “Woe, woe! Your judgments have no cure.”1. In one hour, God is going to change the whole world.

A sudden cataclysmic event will strike, the first of the final judgments of God. This great event will cause the earth to reel. And Isaiah says that when it hits, there will be no place to escape: “The lofty [proud] city, he layeth it low…even to the ground; he bringeth it even to the dust” (Isaiah 26:5). “The inhabitants of the earth are burned” (24:6).

Once this happens, utter chaos will erupt. All civic activities will stop, and society will descend into massive disorder. Government agencies will be helpless to restore any kind of sanity. No state troopers, no national guard, no army will be able to bring order to the upheaval.

You well remember that when the Twin Towers were destroyed, help poured into New York from all over the world. An army of people came to assist in whatever way they could. But the scene in Isaiah’s prophecy is different: this calamity is clearly beyond humankind’s capacity to respond.

Once this judgment strikes, it will devastate the economy. Rich merchants will stand by watching in torment, weeping and mourning, as they face bankruptcy. In an instant, all the wealth they amassed will be reduced to nothing. John describes the scene: “The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city… For in one hour so great riches is come to nought” (Revelation 18:15–17).

Overnight, all buying and selling will cease. Every restaurant and bar will be shut down, and all drinking and music making will end. Indeed, every trace of mirth and delight, joy and gladness, will vanish: “All the merryhearted do sigh. The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth. They shall not drink wine with a song…. The mirth of the land is gone” (Isaiah 24:7–9, 11).

Yes, this is a picture of gloom and doom. But it is not my prophecy. This word was given by the Holy Spirit of Almighty God, to be delivered by his righteous prophet Isaiah. Even the secular world is preparing for it to happen. Billions are being spent on homeland security in the U.S., England, Europe and Israel. Why? Military experts warn that a world-impacting terrorist attack is sure to come.

You may ask: “Why would the whole world change, if a nuclear attack occurs in just one city?” It will happen because of the fear of retaliation. If a rogue nation sends such an attack, you can be sure that within hours that nation will be wiped out. Consider the plan Israel has in place, known as the Samson Option. The moment a nuclear warhead is launched against them, within moments Israel will unleash nuclear missiles to devastate the capital cities of all enemy states.

The world has become a ticking bomb, and time is quickly running out.2. In one hour, God is going to change the church.

This hour of devastation will suddenly change churches, whether they are alive or dead. Isaiah writes, “There shall be the shaking as of an olive tree” (Isaiah 24:13). The image is of God shaking an olive tree after it has been picked of fruit. In short, he’s going to shake everything that can be shaken, sparing nothing. It will be a time of cataclysmic destruction and overwhelming darkness.

So, you ask, “What about God’s people in the midst of all this? What will happen to the church?” Isaiah gives us an incredible word about what will happen with believers.

In the midst of the terrible shaking, a song will be heard, and its sound will grow steadily stronger. Suddenly, in that darkest of hours, a worldwide chorus of voices will sing praises to the majesty of God: “They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the Lord, they shall cry aloud from the sea” (24:14).

Do you get the picture? There will be panic everywhere. Men’s hearts will fail them for fear, as fires belch smoke seen for hundreds of miles. Disorder and chaos will reign on all sides. Yet amid the devastating fires and calamity, the world will hear a glorious song being sung: “Glorify ye the Lord in the fires, even the name of the Lord God of Israel… From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous [One]” (Isaiah 24:15–16).

A holy remnant is going to awaken, and a song will be born in the fire. Instead of panicking, the people of God will be praising his awesome majesty. Imagine it: in the darkest hour of all time, a collective voice will rise by the millions out of every nation, not in fear or agony, but in joyful praise to the Lord.

How will this happen, you ask? In one hour, God is going to regenerate and restore his church. Dry bones will shake and rattle, and the righteous will be awakened, as the Holy Spirit calls multitudes of lukewarm believers back to their first love. In his mercy, he’s going to rouse those who have neglected him, ignoring his Word, avoiding prayer, perhaps even contemplating divorce. Suddenly, their souls will be flooded with pangs of remorse and godly sorrow. And many will fall on their knees, crying out in repentance.

There will be a revival of glorifying God’s majesty. And the song of this revival will be heard from the uttermost parts of the earth. East, west, north and south — from Arab lands to China, Indonesia, Africa and all parts of the earth — a glorious song will rise up from the midst of the fires. In one day’s time, those who survived the fires are going to be singing a new song throughout the world.Isaiah 25 tells us wonderful miracles will come in this time, as “God makes all things new.”

All around the world, the Lord’s people are going to “feast” on his Word: “In this mountain shall the Lord of hosts make unto all people a feast of fat things, a feast of wines on the lees, of fat things full of marrow, of wines on the lees well refined” (Isaiah 25:6).

“And he will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the veil that is spread over all nations” (25:7). Right now, in this time of prosperity, the world’s masses seem to be covered with a veil, unable to see the truth of Jesus Christ. But when God rises up to shake the world through judgment, the shrouds covering the minds of billions will be cast aside. The veil of darkness will be removed, and many will see the Lord in his glory. The Holy Spirit won’t force Christ upon these opened eyes and hearts; rather, a remnant is going to rise up from among them.

I believe the darkest shroud-coverings today are over the eyes and hearts of youth worldwide. This is especially true of college-age students, whose faith has been bombarded for up to four years. Over that time their minds have been indoctrinated by godless professors in classrooms where belief is attacked, mocked and scorned. Now these young men’s and women’s faith has been shipwrecked. They leave college convinced God is dead.

But in one hour of devastation — nuclear, economic and social — all such hypocritical veils are going to fall away. Those same professors who mocked them will realize, as they face the possibility of death, a choice must be made: “What about eternity? Is there life after death?” They’re going to look for someone to explain to them all that’s happening.

When the song is sung, it’s going to be heard by young people from every walk of life, from every nation under the sun. Many will harden their hearts and curse God at the sound of this song, but multitudes of others will join in singing of his majesty.3. In one hour, God is going to change us as individuals.

In a single hour, the focus of our lives will be changed. We’ll no longer obsess about our own adversities and troubles. Suddenly, so many things that we held dear will no longer be of any value to us. Why? In that hour, everyone will be in the same boat:

“It shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him” (Isaiah 24:2).

The sudden judgment that comes will not be a respecter of anyone. Rather, it is going to touch all who are within the realm of its fury. Presidents, kings, the world’s richest and most famous — all will tremble just like the poorest of the earth. And this cataclysmic event will bring to naught every idol, purging iniquity and tearing down all false altars:

“By this [the calamity] therefore shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this is all the fruit to take away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, the groves and images shall not stand up [be left standing]” (Isaiah 27:9).

The world’s most prominent idol is money, and right now America is facing a monstrous financial disaster. Investors are scrambling to move their money out of high-risk funds, and mortgage companies are going bankrupt. One recent financial headline read, “Abandon Ship!” Everyone is selling and nobody is buying. Many households are in a panic, as overnight their lives are changing. I think of the president of a multi-billion-dollar hedge fund, who recently put up for sale his 142-foot yacht and his sixteen-bedroom mansion in Aspen, Colorado. His fund had dried up virtually overnight.

The day is coming when sports will be the last thing on people’s minds. I have nothing against sports, but soon there will be no more 250-million-dollar deals for athletes, when so much of the world is starving. All idols will come crashing down, crushed to dust, and the playing field will be leveled. The richest and the poorest alike will face the same conditions.

It will all happen within a day. “When they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape” (1 Thessalonians 5:3).Why such apocalyptic warnings?

You may wonder: what good can come of these prophetic messages? Why should anyone have to live under such anxiety?

I remind you, Jesus warned Jerusalem of sudden devastation to come upon that city. It was going to be burned to the ground, with over a million people murdered. Christ explained his warning: “I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe” (John 14:29). He was saying, in essence, “When it happens, you’ll know there is a God who loves you and forewarned you.”

Paul calls such warnings “light,” insights that expel darkness. He says, in short: “You are children of light, because you know what’s coming in the future. So, when destruction comes, and there’s panic all around, you will have the calm of the Holy Spirit. Something will quicken inside you, and you’ll remember, ‘God warned me.’ This prophecy isn’t a message of wrath to God’s people, but a wakeup call to begin preparing.”

“God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him” (1 Thessalonians 5:9–10). Paul is speaking here of a time of possible destruction. Therefore, he says, “Comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do” (5:11).

In this day of prosperity, nobody wants to hear a message like Isaiah’s. I certainly don’t want to hear it. But we cannot ignore it, because it is here at our door. In such times, Paul says, when we have knowledge that sudden destruction is coming, we are not to tremble or sorrow as the world does. Instead, we are to comfort one another in faith, knowing that God rules over every aspect of our lives.

“Be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation” (5:8). Paul instructs, “Arm yourself with faith. Build up your belief now, before the day comes. Learn your song, and you’ll be able to sing it in your fire.” “Glorify ye the Lord in the fires, even the name of the Lord God of Israel” (Isaiah 24:15).

This is the hope of our most holy faith: our Lord causes a song to come out of the darkest of times. Start now to build up your holy faith in him, and learn to praise his majesty quietly in your heart. When you sing your song, it will strengthen and encourage your brothers and sisters. And it will testify to the world: “Our Lord reigns over the Flood!” ■

“Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will
come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship
to restrict the art of healing to one class of Men and deny equal
privileges to others; the Constitution of this republic should make
special privilege for medical freedom as well as religious
freedom.”
Medical tyranny slowly creeps us and silently brought in under the
guise of “public safety.” Although you may believe the Covid
vaccine and masks are a good idea, but if medical tyranny
continues, one day there will be mandates for things you don’t
believe in, and you will be forced to follow those.
The medical establishment, guided by the WHO, FDA, NIH and
CDC have shown they care more about profits for pharma and
politics, than our health. Remedies that can help Covid, such as
hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin have been suppressed.
Knowledge about vitamin D and C, zinc and quercetin has not
been communicated to the public. The hospital protocols are also
to blame for the deaths of many people; sending Covid patients
home with no advice or remedies, hospitalized patients put on
ventilators that have shown to kill 9 out of 10 people, and failure
to put people on high doses of vitamin C and zinc are all part of
the problem.
Therapies such as monoclonal antibodies could have prevented
so many needless deaths. The top directing health organizations
have shown they are either slow, ignorant, or following a nefarious
plan in regards to the Covid crisis. Meanwhile these
organizations, along with the media, have attacked well meaning
doctors who have had huge success using various therapies. One
such doctor is Vladimir Zelenko. If we allow them to mandate their
policies, one day they may affect you, and you will have been a
part of this tyrannical new order if you impose mandates on
Kansans. The day will come when you may need medical
attention, and I’m sure you would like the freedom to choose what
types of therapies and procedures will be performed on you.
The authorities have used the excuse of “medical safety” to
explain why they need to impose mandates on the people. This is
a lie. Safety comes from the freedom to choose what is best for
our health. The real danger is giving power to medical authorities
to determine what they think is best for our health.
Let’s look at the Covid vaccine to see if it really is in anyone’s best
interest. The first step is read the VAERS information; vaccine
adverse events reporting system. Here you will see the latest
information. As of October 1st, 2021, there have been:

• 16,310 deaths
• 75,605 hospitalizations
• 87,814 urgent care visits
• 121,305 doctor’s office visits
• 7,141 anaphylaxis
• 9,446 bell’s palsy
• 2,415 miscarriages
• 7,868 heart attacks
• 8,689 myocarditis/pericarditis
• 23,712 permanently disabled
• 3,620 thrombocytopenia/low platelet
• 17,619 life-threatening
• 30,631 severe allergic reaction
• 9,215 shingles

Currently there are 8,000 employees of Mayo Clinic that may be
terminated due to refusal to receive the Covid vaccine. These are
intelligent people who work in the medical field. This should raise
a red flag for everyone; why are they not wanting the shot?
Meanwhile, the FDA advisory committee that voted yesterday to
allow 5-11 year old children to receive the Covid vaccine is made
up of industry insiders. They are not following the science since
Covid-19 has shown it does not affect children seriously.
Those in power are slowly stripping away our freedoms. We don’t
have free speech anymore. Doctors who speak up about the
dangers of the covid vaccine are censored or de-platformed by
social technocrats. Parents who speak out at school board
meetings were threatened to have the FBI come after them.
People suffering from vaccine injuries are censored and ridiculed.
We no longer have free press. Five corporations control 90% of
America’s news outlets: Comcast, Disney, Viacom/CBS, News
Corp, and AT&T. The news has boiled down to a bunch of
puppets reading a script.
The potential mandates the legislature is considering are in direct
violation of the 4th Amendment, the Right to bodily integrity.
Forcing people to accept an experimental treatment that has
serious side effects is not constitutional. Remember, you may be
in favor of this particular Covid gene altering therapy, but down
the line there may come another therapy you disagree with. If you
allow this to be mandated, this opens the door for others to be
mandated as well.
Supporting any type of mandates is to go along and support the
technocrats. To fully understand who is calling the shots during
the Covid situation, please study Technocracy. A quote by The
Technocrat (1938) describes it perfectly “Technocracy is the
science of social engineering, the scientific operation of the entire
social mechanism to produce and distribute goods and services to
the entire population.”
The technocrat dream is to rule in a tyrannical, medical fascist
state. We already see this through the actions of the technocrats
behind companies such as Google, Twitter, Facebook, and Apple.
They have become more powerful than politicians, which puts in
danger our entire political system.

Will a supranational digital currency replace the US dollar ahead?

Will paper currencies disappear in the US/West and elsewhere?

Dollar debasement is a step toward resetting the monetary system.

It’s been in the works for years.

If implemented, ruling regimes will have knowledge about and be able to control monetary transactions.

At their discretion, they’ll be able to block targeted individuals or groups from making them.

They’ll be able to impose onerous fees and negative interest rates to tax savings.

They could ration or otherwise restrict purchases.

They could confiscate savings with a computer keyboard click.

According to house of Rothschild founder long ago, Amschel Rothschild:

“Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation, and I care not who makes its laws.”

will steal the food from your kids’ tables…

Watch this video below to find out the great secrets hidden by the government.

Former Bank of England director, Josiah Stamp, once said:

“Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin.”

“(B)ankers own the earth.” 

“Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again.”

“However, take it away from them, and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in.” 

“But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create (and control) money.” 

And this reality check from historian Carroll Quigley in his book, titled “Tragedy and Hope,” explaining:

“(T)he powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole.” 

The US Federal Reserve isn’t federal and has no reserves.

It’s owned and controlled by JP Morgan Chase, B of A, Wells Fargo, Citibank, Goldman Sachs and other banking giants.

CBDCs are a despot’s dream.

Along with nuclear war, pestilence and famine, they’ll threaten the lives, rights and survival of millions and billions of people where the scourge is implemented. 

What little remains of greatly eroded freedoms will disappear.

Yet their implementation ahead looks virtually certain.

It’ll be sold to the unsuspecting public by well-planned, MSM-supported, mass deception — similar to how most people were mind-manipulated to self-inflict irreparable harm from kill shots and all else flu/covid.

When pushed hard enough with MSM support, most people believe almost anything — no matter how often they were fooled before.

Yet along with all things flu/covid, CBDCs will be another mother of all state-sponsored scams — the greatest financial scam of all time.

Greater social control will be instituted.

The great wealth transfer from most people to the privileged few will accelerate.

On Tuesday, Reuters reported the following:

“Global banking giants are starting a 12-week digital dollar pilot with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York” — the dominant one as the nation’s largest.

“Citigroup, HSBC Holdings, Mastercard and Wells Fargo are among the financial companies participating in the ‘experiment’ alongside the New York Fed’s (so-called) innovation center.”

What’s going on has nothing to do with “speeding up settlement time in currency markets” as NY Fed official, Michelle Neal, falsely claimed.

It’s all about what’s explained above.

The so-called 12-week test is cover for what’s planned — digitizing the dollar ahead.

Some congressional members oppose the scheme — too few to stop the diabolical scheme.

On September 29, GOP Senator James Lankford  introduced the No Digital Dollar Act.

It prohibits the US Treasury and Federal Reserve from interfering with the ability of Americans to use paper currency if a digital version is adopted.

According to Lankford:

“Oklahomans have expressed to me their concern that the Treasury could phase out paper money and transition to a digital dollar.”

“While some Oklahomans are open to digital currencies, many still prefer hard currency or at least the option of” using it. 

“There is no reason we can’t continue to have paper and digital money in our nation and allow the American people to decide how to carry and spend their own money.” 

“Americans should not have to worry about every transaction in their financial life being tracked or their money being deleted.” 

“There is currently no federal statute that prohibits the Treasury from only having a digital currency.” 

Unlike bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, “CBDCs are issued and backed by the government.”

If they replace the dollar and other paper currencies, what’ll follow will exceed the worst of what Orwell and Huxley imagined.

“Digital money is the ultimate power of tyranny,” Paul Craig Roberts explained.

Its aim is total control over our lives.

Without paper currency to use as we wish, financial sovereignty is lost, along with what little remains of an open, free and fair society.

It’s coming because resistance against what no one should accept is lacking — and with it, the worst of all possible worlds.

On December 6th President Trump’s words shook the world.

For the first time in over 2000 years, Jerusalem was recognized as the capital of Israel.

Whether he knows it or not, President Trump fulfilled his part in a frightening biblical prophecy exactly as the scriptures predicted.

Only the top church leaders and Bible scholars know the real meaning behind this great and terrible moment, yet no one is saying a thing about it…

So pay chose attention because this video will change your life forever for the good!

Gun Control is a favorite tactic for many politicians on the left. It allows them to shift the blame from the person, whose worldviews and political party often aligns with theirs, to a simple tool they can ban. With an all Republican everything, you’d think we wouldn’t have to worry, but that’s far from true. These people seemingly always find a way to infiltrate politics and attempt to strip us of our God-given rights. So what do we do? How do we fight back if gun control legislation is proposed or passed?

#1. Learn How To Make Your Own

California is the beacon of cruddy gun control laws in the United States. They’ve gone above and beyond to reclassify your standard semi-automatic rifle into what they call an assault rifle. What we’ve seen is people and companies outsmarting the legislature at every turn. One of the most famous means was building your own gun. Specifically AR 15s. AR 15s are always on the chopping block, but even California couldn’t stop the signal.

With the advent of 80% lowers Californians were able to again build their own rifles within the law. The AR 15 is hardly the only weapon you can build. In fact, an enterprising patriot build can manufacture their own semi-auto Sten gun, Glocks, MAC 10/11s, AK rifles and more. The main issue is going to be acquiring the skills and tools needed to make these weapons. It takes a little mechanical skill and a lot of different tools.

It would be wise to start learning the insides and outsides of guns now. Learn to build them, acquire the tools, and fire up the Youtube machine. Here you’ll find as hard as they try they can’t stop the signal. You can build your own with a little practice, and it’s perfectly legal to do so. You aren’t just building guns, you are learning valuable skills regarding the construction and design of firearms that could be invaluable if things got really bad.

#2. Recognize the Gun Ban Matrix

One fact we’ve seen over and over again with anti-gunners is that they know absolutely nothing about guns. If the power these people had wasn’t so terrifying it would be hilarious. Every time they open their mouths about guns they say something incredibly stupid. They simply target guns that look scary and that’s it. That’s why the gun ban matrix exists. The gun ban matrix is a list of features and guns unlikely to be banned because anti-gunners are idiots and don’t understand firearms.

These are the guns you should consider investing in should sweeping legislation occur. In case the situations getting drastic and confiscation begins things may move too fast for people to react. In that event a neutered gun is better than no gun.

The first guns to go are going to be the traditional targets for anti-gunners, the AK 47s, the AR 15s, the Tavors, and the usual suspects. They may be banned by name, or by the features they share. A good alternative to these semi-auto rifles is the Ruger Mini 14 and Mini 30 series. They can be purchased in not so scary configurations.

Past the Mini 14 and Mini 30, there is the fixed magazine SKS rifle. It’s often left off ban lists, and it’s affordable and common. It’s limited to ten rounds, but with stripper clips, you can reload quite fast with practice.

Past this level we get into manually operated firearms, this includes pump-action shotguns, and lever and bolt action rifles. A good lever action rifle is a rapid firing gun and in the right caliber can hold up to 14 rounds. These guns are highly unlikely to be banned without a full constitutional amendment.

#3. Don’t Give A Single Inch

With the recent Las Vegas shooting there has been an increased interest in banning a firearm accessory known as a bump fire stock. These accessories are rather dumb and useless, and in no way did it make the shooter more lethal. Regardless of how dumb and useless they are there is no reason the firearms community should let them be banned without a fight. With the NRA even saying the ATF should reevaluate bump fire stocks.

This is how gun control starts, with tiny little cuts. We let them take one dumb accessory and next time they’ll push for something else, and they’ll keep pushing. Give them nothing, not a single inch. As gun rights advocates we have to defend what we have and go on the offensive. Fight back and take our God Given rights back.

#4. Push Back and Push Back Hard

If legislation gets passed regarding gun control, and I mean any legislation at all, we have to push back. The vast majority of gun owners are law abiding, tax paying, job having citizens who want nothing more than to live in peace. We all know actual gun control will do absolutely nothing to strip criminals of firearms, just good people who already obey the law.

If gun control happens as law abiding gun owners we have to flood the legislator’s offices with our demands. We have to protest, we have to write letters, we need to march on the capitals. In 2012 the gun community did an amazing job of coming together to resist any form of gun control. We need that same response to every law that passes, heck we need that reaction every gun control law that is even proposed.

We need to push at the local, state and federal level. Work every angle possible. We have to keep supporting companies that agree with our God-given rights, we have to join gun rights organizations of every kind. We literally have to put our money where our mouth is.

#5. Focus on the Small Politics as Much as the Large

It’s easy to forget the importance of local politics when it comes to federal gun control. Local and state politics can make all the difference. We saw Sheriff’s in states across the union step forward and say they would refuse to enforce federal gun control laws in their counties. We saw states and municipalities adopt laws that would act to nullify federal gun control laws.

If we can’t toss the anti-freedom and anti-gun bastards out of federal offices we can at least elect the right people at the local and state level to ensure the laws are useless.

Resist

As American citizens, we owe it to future generations to resist. Resist with every fiber we have. Resist gun control measures with everything we can. We need to prepare for the worst and always ready to resist.

Suppose They Threw an Election and Nobody Came

The bars were all closed on Election Day

My dad never voted. He figured out in 1947 that is was all bokem and boz. His main contention was the bars were all closed on Election Day. At seventy years old I’m beginning to see my dad’s wisdom. Don’t you find it amazing that Donald Trump made so much hay pointing out a fact that every guy hanging out at the barber shop already knew. Are the elections rigged? Why hell yeah they’re rigged! Why do you think the politicians keep winning them?

I Have a Dream

But, we can all dream, you know? Just like the prophet Merle Haggard told us When the president goes through the White House door, and does what he said he’d do, we’ll all be drinking that free bubble up, and eating that rainbow stew! You know the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. Like remarrying an ex-wife.

But, the American people keep marrying her again, and again. First, they try the Democrats. Then, after four to eight years they yell, “Oh hell no,” and switch to Republicans. Takes ‘em eight to twenty years to get untangled from whatever war they start, and they vote the Democrats back in, and the whole thing starts all over again!

The Blue Wave

The Democrats came into power this last time in what they called a Blue Wave. Actually, it was more like a backed up sewer. Right away they began taking credit for all the things Trump had put into place in what would have been his first term, but they did make gas prices great again though. Nobody could afford to drive to Disneyland, and due to COVID it was closed anyway. By the time it opened back up Donald Duck was having an affair with Mickey Mouse, but we couldn’t say anything about it because we didn’t know the proper pronoun. You know in Texas we had a saying It’s FRIDAY! Screw a duck, but we didn’t think anyone would actually do it! But, I digress.

Whiskey Therapy

Amber Alert!

On the international front Greta Thunberg came out as a communist yesterday. (This is my surprised face!) She’s of age of consent now so I can legally say I’d like to pour three or four shots of Jim Beam in her just to see what comes out the other end. Hey! What you lookin’ at? I’m from Austin!

Anyway the voter turnout in any election is pitiful at best. But, on the positive side I saw three hundred and fifty new voters coming over the Mexican border into Texas just in time to register. Pretty sure they weren’t Republicans. I found it amazing that buses were already there waiting for them. Who would have known?

Gotta Wait Til The Fat Lady Sings

Now think about this. Just for gits and grins, why don’t we all get together for once and nobody vote. Yeah! I mean it. You get a day off to vote, just don’t do it, stay home, get drunk wait to see what the numbers look like after the polls close. Oh, there’ll be numbers, statistics, and the usual fat black lady telling the news reporter about how repressed she is. And when it’s all over there’ll be a bunch of recounts and charges of voter fraud. But you know what? Maybe, just maybe, the American people will begin to see who the real frauds are!

While new bums are marginally preferable to empowered ones, so-called US elections amount to a choice between death by hanging or firing squad.

It’s always been this way, especially throughout the post-WW II period.

Hegemon USA is a one-party state with two extremist right wings — the  war party.

Perpetual wars on invented enemies by hot and/or other means rage no matter which of its wings control the White House and/or Congress.

America’s defense establishment is all about offense — waging preemptive wars against one nonthreatening nation after another in pursuit of unchallenged hegemony.

Longstanding US policy is too deeply debauched to change.

Whether Republicans or undemocratic Dems run things, US forever war on humanity at home and worldwide won’t end unless or until it’s smashed on the battlefield or by popular revolution.

A Wall Street crowd and militarists run the nation.

Government of, by and for the people is doublespeak rubbish.

“We the people” applies only to ruling elites and monied interests.

Democracy, the real thing, was banned from inception.

A fantasy version alone exists.

The Constitution is no masterpiece of political architecture, far from it.

The rule of law is how ruling regimes define it.

Expanding the nation from sea to shining sea preceded hegemon USA’s global imperial project by brute force.

The supreme law of the land deters no ruling regime from doing what whatever it pleases in pursuing its diabolical aims at home and abroad — time and again justifying what’s unjustifiable.

Elections are cover for continuity — for no end to dirty business as usual.

When held, they’re farcical.

They’ve always been this way in an increasingly tyrannical plutocracy and kleptocracy where popular needs and concerns don’t matter — where greatly eroded freedoms are disappearing altogether.

The road to hell from inception to now was paved with pure evil intentions.

Since the 9/11 mother of all false flags to that time, both wings of the one-party state enforced police state rule.

Since kill shots were rolled out, mass-extermination of unwanted segments of societies domestically and abroad became official US policy — the worst of it under undemocratic Dems.

Hegemons don’t change longstanding policies under either wing of the one-party state.

Long ago, I advised Americans to vote independent or stay home — to show disdain for Republicrats despite no possibility of ballot box change.

Former Chicago alderman, Paddy Bauler (1890 – 1977), once said the city “ain’t ready for reform.”

Nor is hegemon USA — an unparalleled menace to peace, equity, justice and the rule of law.

That’s the disturbing reality on election day 2022 and every day of the year.

From inception, voting for one candidate over another left dirty business as usual unchanged.

And make no mistake.

Things will stay this way when final election 2022 results are known.

Only mind-manipulated fools believe otherwise.

Most powerful and dangerous criminal gangs in the United States.

The two apex gangs control trillions of dollars’ worth of assets and together maintain the unquestioning loyalty of more than one hundred million Americans. Their gang influence extends beyond the United States to much of the modern world. The two most dangerous criminal gangs in the United States are known as the Democratic Party and the Republican Party.

The pushback identifying these criminal gangs publicly, out in the open, will be both swift and violent. Republicans and Democrats will vehemently declare: “We are not criminal enterprises!”

Let’s take a look.

How do we define a criminal enterprise?

‘A criminal organization is a society of associates, with defined leadership and an internal organization, that identifies with or claims control over territory in a community and engages, either individually or collectively, in illegal, and possibly violent, behavior.’

Are democrats and republicans a society of associates? Absolutely. The parties are comprised of people loosely or rather very loosely committed to an ideology but more forcefully committed to attaining and retaining power.

Do the two parties have defined leaders and internal organizations? Absolutely; in gerrymandered communities, entrenched in states and with exorbitantly funded national political machines.

Do democrats and republicans identify with or claim control over territory or communities? Absolutely. Turn on any media stream in the United States and you will see politicians, pundits and journalists emphasizing gang member affiliation and allegiance. Senator so and so, Republican from, fill in the blank. Governor so and so, Democrat from, fill in the blank. Gang members proudly display their colors while fervently espousing party rhetoric without pretense of serving any wider constituency.

See what I mean?

Starting to seem plausible now – isn’t it?

“But, engaging in criminal behavior – that’s going too far!”

Is it really?

Criminal behavior validates the adage: “Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” In a Darwinian world it is survival of the fittest after all. Disregarding for the time being the corruption often rearing its ugly head at the local and state levels, let’s look to the feds.

We are experiencing, and have been experiencing for some time, the institutionalization of corruption. The corruption is so corrosive average citizens are forced into a hyper-competitive free-for-all just to keep their heads above water. No one seems to have the time or perspective to ask: Is there a better way?

If you are a registered democrat or republican I know you’re still, right now, enraged that someone dare suggest that your party, your team, engages in criminal activity. Let’s examine that notion more closely.

Still at the federal level; choose your party, choose your administration and notice the emergent themes:

1. Government grabbing more control over every aspect of Americans’ lives.

2. Government seizing control over ever increasing shares of public wealth.

3. Government deciding who wins and who loses; government officials determine which of their benefactors gain and which citizens – most regularly from the productive class – lose.

4. Government exerts absolute control over the instruments of national power and regularly uses those instruments to kill or suppress poor people around the world ensuring money keeps flowing into the right hands.

The governing mantra of both political parties – though not published publicly – is, “Do whatever it takes to whomever to ensure we maintain power.” In simple terms, “Lie, cheat, steal.” Welcome to our modern American democracy.

Seems like criminal enterprises to me.

If you disagree with my premise, then when your party is in power you’re quite happy with the way things are and you won’t need to read on. If however, you sense something is fundamentally wrong with our American system then I ask you:

What can be done about it?

You’ve likely noticed society has been deteriorating for sixty years. We’ve moved from a “we’re-all-in-this-together” post-World War II cultural mentality to an “every-man-for-himself” dominant philosophy of late.

This Covid-19 crisis is a calling card pointing out the obvious: it’s time to resurrect fundamental principles again. It’s time to reset society so that we can actually advance together for the greater good. Unfortunately too many of us are stuck in the fight to get ours.

It’s time to stop fighting.

It’s time to stop identifying with gangs and start identifying as imperfect, humble, yet capable, gracious and giving people. It’s time to break the chains of moribund politics and begin to think as human beings who are part of an integrated global family. We can and must come together and change course.

If we refuse to break from the old ways; if we refuse to divert from the party line and gang mentality of “might makes right,” we stand to lose, not just money and status, we stand to lose everything. Not a prospect many Americans aspire to.

Take off the political party blinders. Engage in crucial conversations – openly, honestly, and transparently. Don’t think you alone have all the answers – re-righting society takes a collective effort – an effort where we all bear the burden and we all change.

Start small by relying on fundamental principles of honesty and integrity. Tell the truth. Be honest and transparent dealing with everyone. Do what’s right and in the best interests of people – all people. Only entertain the advice and direction of men and women of character – people who have proven they are trustworthy and who have demonstrated they are interested in the greater good.

These are challenging times; not a time for gang warfare and status quo political maneuvering. It is time for us to come together, overpower the gangs and make a radical change.

Our underlying goal in a SHTF scenario is ultimately to stay alive and live without exposure to risks.  As much preparation as many of us have made, in the altered world of a SHTF crisis, there will be many dangers that lurk; and some of them will be inadvertently from our own doing.

The six laws of survival. Read this. Memorize this. Apply this. One day, you will need it.]

ReadyNutrition Guys and Gals, we just finished a series on how to escape from Bill Ayers’ Summer Reeducation Camp (or Gulag 17, depending on the situation).  Now we will cover one of the most important elements of all: How to stay out of the “Happy” Camp.  Best thing of all: do not go in.  Easier said than done, however, there are some things you can do beforehand that will increase your chances of staying out of the Gulag.

These things are not complicated, however, they will require both willpower and action.  They will not be things that happen on their own.  In order to stay out of a camp, you must do something very important:

 You must do things that others do not do, and you must not do what others do.

Let us run with this concept in a scenario:

You’re in bed…it’s a Saturday morning, and you don’t have to go to any of your 3 jobs today until noon.  Your battery-powered clock seems to have stopped at 5:15 am.  Puzzled you hear the drone of jet engines, and all of a sudden the house seems as if it is shaking.  You jump up and run to the front door and as you walk onto the front porch, all hell is breaking loose.

 Your mind is playing, “For Whom the Bell Tolls” by Metallica as you look up and see dozens of aircraft flying West to East, disgorging sesame seeds that sprout parachutes by the thousands, all coming down into your neighborhood.  “Red Dawn” isn’t playing: it is happening, and you’re in it.  Your neighbors didn’t bother to come wake you up; however, they’re working on starting their cars, with no success.  The paratroopers are landing, and a large crowd of people is running down Main Street to the tune of automatic gunfire in the distance.  Yep, you guessed it!  America has been invaded, and chances are you are not going to be handing out a Slurpee this afternoon.

Now what?  You must fall upon the six laws of survival or else all could be lost.

The Six Laws of Survival

In a survival scenario all bets are off and the following laws will keep you alive. These laws are rigid, but necessary. Harsh, but true. Keep your cards close and always have a plan.

Law 1: Wherever that crowd is running, do not join them.

This is not to say that they aren’t (initially) running in the right direction.  But what of it?  They are bound to be either captured en masse or worse (bombed, strafed, or shot).  For the horror of the IHM (the Incredible Human Mob), look no further than “War of the Worlds” with Tom Cruise where he and his family are driving the passenger van…right up and into the mob.  Look what happened there.  You can’t defeat their numbers, and you will be captive to them…another steer in the herd.

Strike out on your own, you and your family, avoiding the main thoroughfares at all cost, and avoiding the IHM.

Law 2: You have to have a place (and places) to go.

This is where thinking outside of the general herd will pay off.  We’re going to instruct by running through a checklist…. this will be a “handy-dandy” checklist that you can print out or run over in your mind to be able to follow rule #2.

• Did you preposition assets (food, weapons, money, etc.) at an initial safe location?
• Is that location within walking distance for you and your family?
• Once there, are you and your family secure for at least a 24 – 48-hour period?
• Safe from enemy troops/government “peacekeepers” on the hunt?
• Safe from fallout and/or NBC agents?
• Does it have a food and water supply to sustain all of you for 7 days?
•  If your initial safe location has been compromised, is a duplicate location nearby?
• Do you have a farther (more remote) location that you can reach on foot in 3 days?
• A secure, sustainable location with supplies for at least a month?
• Do you and your family have a handheld method of communication for each member?
• Have you formulated short-term (initial contact, 48 hours, 7 days) plans?
• Have you made long-term (1 month and month-by-month; 6 months and 6-month continuous analysis; 1 year) plans?

Guys and gals, these are just basics.  You must have these things in place in order to give you and your family a fighting chance.  Whether or not it is a foreign invasion or a domestic communist takeover of the United States, you must leave your home in suburbia or you will be rounded up, bringing us forward:

Law 3: You will be leaving your home, permanently or for a long time.

This is survival.  The majority of readers are not living in the mountains or in a remote location.  If you follow these steps and practice them on a dry-run on a regular basis…it will give you the advantage that most people will not have.  You must innovate: come up with ideas that others will not think of.  Do you know of an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town?  Chances are that 90% of others will think the same thing in a grid-down/Red Dawn survival scenario.  You need to find the places that are off the beaten path.  And if there are none?  It may mean that you have to create a place.

How?  By caching your supplies within the walking distances described for each part of the “safe” area.  By finding tunnels, caves, or other sub-structures that can protect you from the elements and at least afford partial protection from radiation.  By being who it is you imagine yourself to be: a prepper…a survivalist…or a survivor.  When you enter any contest, do you enter it to lose?  Do you strive for just “second place” or “second best” in this arena?  Chances are the answer is “no,” but you have to arrive on that conclusion on your own.  All of this is a challenge, and this underlines everything for you if it needs clarification:

Law 4: In survival, there is no silver medal: “second place” means death.

Forget that phrase in “The Hunger Games,” because if you are taken…the odds are not ever in your favor.  We went through a 4-article series on how to escape from the Gulag where I reiterated how important it is for you to stay out of it.  I stand by this concept.  If you are taken captive, the odds aren’t in your favor of getting out…for the duration of it.

And then guess what?  The Germans during WWII as the allies approached began to hide their transgressions by liquidating the camps…basically killing everyone that could bear any type of witness to the atrocities.  Do not think for an instant that it will not happen again.  Look at Holodomor in Ukraine and the starvation tactics the USSR used to follow after the Malthusian model.  Our enemies have very little regard for human life, and the lives they value are of their own people.  If the Chinese communists would run over their own people with tanks and sell their internal organs while they’re still alive, what will they do with us?

Which brings us to the “Malcolm X” rule:

Law 5: You must stay out and survive by any and all means necessary.

Some of you may think “JJ is a little harsh.”  I would rather be hard and harsh now, and enable you, my countrymen, to have some tools at your disposal and a “sharp tack” under the figurative buttocks of your mind to give you the impetus to do something about the situation prior to its occurrence.  The country is “long in the tooth,” and you have to grasp these concepts and act upon them now…not burn off the pages and save them in the survival archives…but use them to inculcate your own, individual plan of action now.

Rule #5 means resolving yourself to do what you must in order to protect yourself from the ravages (and not just possible, but probable death) inside of one of these camps.  These are all basic, “generic” things to begin as a base for your preparations.  This is a form of guerilla warfare!  Avoid the occupiers/oppressors at all cost!  These things will work for you…if you resolve yourself (ves) to do them.  I’ll close with a note on OPSEC (operational security): you better build off of these basics and keep all of them to yourself.

JJ is giving you the basics that you need, without revealing everything of his own plans.  Why?  Because I earned them by paying for them with years of experience and suffering, and it means my family’s survival.  Such measures would run you a lot of money and imagination; such measures come from years of practical experience and the willingness to take chances.  This thought brings us to our final rule, the failure of which means compromise leading to death:

Law 6:  Do not tip your hand or reveal your plans to anyone.

Next installment we will talk about life under occupation, be that by foreign invaders or by totalitarian state that has morphed out of a democracy.  In the meantime, prepare and plan, and when you are reasonably sure, execute a dry run.  The practice does make perfect and affords you a time and trials to iron out all of the glitches in your operations.  Until next time be good to one another and keep up the fight!

The forces are mounting that will eventually overwhelm most Americans and send their standard of living to unknown depths. Americans that have only known the post WWII prosperity are ill equipped and educated to deal with depression level living. Easy credit and instant gratification have created a nation of whining, self absorbed, entitlement minded people with no moral or mental toughness.

Doug Casey believes we are headed for what he calls a super depression created by the ending of a debt super cycle. The bigger the debt cycle the bigger the depression that follows. That’s how reality works and most people are not prepared for reality.

When this depression, which has already started, gets momentum, it will overwhelm the plans of a society that is expecting to get things like social security, pensions and payouts from retirement plans they have paid into for many years. All of those things will disappear almost overnight and leave society gasping and stupefied over what to do. Their reactions will be to yell and scream and try to identify who to blame but the only person they should blame is the one in the mirror.

Many very smart people have raised the alarm and done their best to warn the sleeping public, but those slumbering masses have ignored the warnings and hit the snooze button one more time. The masses do not understand economics, do not want to understand economics and they will pay dearly for that ignorance in the coming days.

When the real unemployment rate becomes common knowledge as it increases substantially, people will be left to survive on what resources they have saved up outside the banking system that cannot be stolen by the politicians and bankers. That is a key point here. The assets you have outside the system that cannot be stolen from you with a few key strokes on some computer.

Those hoping for some miraculous event that will send the U.S. back to the days of manufacturing might and jobs for all will never see it happen. Those days are gone. The west line theory tells us our economy will slow down and become more modest as the shipping center of the world moves west to the next powerhouse region which is Asia. This is what history teaches us.

When people suddenly wake up one morning and they have no job, their retirement is gone and they need to care for their family, what will they do? When government services have collapsed and they suddenly realize they are now living in a third world country with few government services, what will they do? When the banks are closed and only a select few connected people have any type of money or access to goods, what will they do?

This is the reality that many people will face in the future and they have no idea how bad it can get. They refuse to contemplate the harsh reality they will be living in and take steps to mitigate the effects. To do so would be to acknowledge it could happen and they are taking personal responsibility. Personal responsibility is a dirty phrase in today’s entitlement society. To see some of the effects one only has to look at the collapse of society in Venezuela today to see what awaits.

When it happens it will all fall back to you to take responsibility for your family and take care of them for the duration. To do that you need to plan now for that eventuality and build up the resources you will need to provide food, shelter, clothing and security when the system fails to do it for you. You need to be Noah on his ark not the people watching as he floated away.

Having resources stored up is a must but it may not get you all the way through if the situation lasts for many years. That is why you need some type of plan to replace those resources as time goes by and have some way to generate some type of income or at least items to trade. Usable goods are for the short term and things like gold ,silver and production equipment are for the long term to help you get through the crisis with the least amount of pain.

Even with proper planning the days ahead will not be easy as the standard of living of society will fall substantially to levels only seen in failed third world countries or old pictures. The assets actually owned by people today is very small compared to how they live. They will default on their home loan, their car loan, and their credit card debt leaving them with very few real possessions and few ways to move what they have left even if they have some place to go. Ultimately these people will become the new serfs to the wealthy class that will take possession of anything of value. Feudalism will once again rule.

The lack of planning by society will make this a reality if it is allowed. What will you do when everything you have worked a lifetime for is suddenly taken away? Do you have a plan to keep what you have? Do you have a plan to make money when you cannot find a job? Do you have a way to take care of your family until things stabilize? Do you have a home you will not lose if the whole system breaks down? What will you do if electricity or fuel is too expensive to buy or not available to the general population? These are the questions you should be asking yourself now and you better have a good answer because your family will be asking them when the greater depression sets in.

Money plays such an important role in our lives that most of us could not imagine surviving without it. Yet that is exactly what you need to do if you want to prepare for an economic condition called deflation.

Deflation is the term economists use to describe a “general decline in prices, often caused by a reduction in the supply of money or credit.” A good way to think of deflation is as the opposite of inflation. Inflation occurs when there is too much money in circulation, which destroys its value and raises prices. When deflation occurs, there is too little money available, which often causes prices to collapse and the economy to shut down.

In severe cases of deflation there can be no money available at all not — even at the banks. This nightmare actually occurred during the Great Depression of the 1930s, when there were places in the United States where there was no cash available at all. More recently, it has happened in Greece, where ATMs ran out of cash and where banks placed limits on the amount of money that could be withdrawn.

People had no money to pay bills or buy food for their families. Employers had no money to pay employees, customers had no money to buy goods, and many people were reduced to bartering to survive. During the Great Depression, farmers would pay professionals such as mechanics and doctors with food because they had no money and no credit.

The situation got so bad that in some areas of the country, local governments, chambers of commerce and businesses issued their own currencies — the so-called depression scrip. The scrip often took the form of pieces of paper that people used as money because there was no government currency available. The scrip was used to pay workers or buy goods.

At one point during the Great Depression, the money shortage got so severe that the US government considered issuing a national scrip as an alternative to the dollar. That plan was eventually dropped and the government solved the crisis by simply printing more dollars.

So pay chose attention because this video will change your life forever for the good!

Many people have known survivors of the Great Depression who liked to keep large amounts of cash on hand. Others would hoard food and other items. Those people developed that habit because they remembered what life without money was like. The fear of the deflation that occurred in the 1930s haunted them all of their lives.

The frightening reality is that the threat of deflation is still real. Some knowledgeable individuals, such as wealth preservation experts Will and Bill Bonner, believe that a sudden deflation leading to a national or international money shortage is still possible today.

The Bonners, who have studied some of the world’s knowledgeable investors such as George Soros, believe that the next financial crisis will begin with a “violent monetary shock” similar to the one that occurred during the Great Depression. They predict that money could suddenly disappear overnight, causing the economy to come to a grinding halt.

What Happens When Money Vanishes

Historical accounts of the Great Depression show us some of the possible effects of such a violent monetary shock. The damage caused by such a violent deflation can include:

The sudden collapse of prices. The Great Depression began with the collapse of stock market prices in 1929. That was preceded by the collapse of agricultural prices in the United States during the 1920s. During that crisis, land prices in rural areas collapsed, causing large numbers of rural banks to fail. When the banks failed, the government liquidated them and their assets, which included lots of foreclosed farmland, an action that further drove prices and made the crisis worse.

Everything you have — your investments, your home and your possessions — could suddenly lose all of its value. We saw this happen during the mortgage bubble of 2007-2008, when many people found themselves “underwater.” That occurs when the amount a home is mortgaged for exceeds the property’s value.

The collapse in prices during the Great Depression particularly hurt farmers who relied on commodity prices. Newsreels from the early 1930s show farmers dumping grain on the ground and pouring out milk because they could not sell them.

Bank runs and the collapse of financial institutions. A bank run or banking panic occurs when all of a bank’s depositors try to take their money out at once. Bank runs often trigger the collapse of financial institutions, which prompts even more bank runs. Between 1930 and 1933 nearly 10,000 banks failed or were suspended. The panic got so bad that President Franklin D. Roosevelt actually suspended all bank transactions in the US between March 6 and March 10, 1933 to prevent further runs in his so-called “bank holiday.”

During the banking crisis of the 1930s, many Americans lost their life savings simply because they were not able to get to the bank fast enough and withdraw their money. Even some wealthy individuals ended up on the streets and in bread lines because they could not get money from the bank.

Massive unemployment. It is a simple and obvious fact that when there is no money, there are no jobs. At the height of the Great Depression in 1933, 24.75 percent of the nation’s labor force, or one in four workers, were unemployed. Around 12.83 million people were out of work at a time when America’s total population was only around 93 million people. That unemployment persisted for years, with 8.1 million Americans still out of work in 1940 in the 11^th year of the Great Depression. The unemployment created by the Depression only ended when World War II created “jobs” in the form of the draft and war production.

Hunger and Starvation. Not surprisingly, hunger and in some cases death from starvation can become a problem after deflation. Historians disagree on the number of people who died during the Great Depression.

Massive expansion of government and its power. In his first 100 days in office in 1933, Roosevelt signed 15 major pieces of legislation, several of which established massive new bureaucracies. During the 1920s there were 553,000 civilian employees of the federal government, but by 1940 the federal government had more than 1 million civilian employees. For the first time in American history, the federal government even tried to set prices for products under the National Recovery Act. The government also told farmers what to grow under the Agricultural Adjustment Act. Those laws were so blatantly unconstitutional that the US Supreme Court struck them down in 1935 and 1936.

Increased taxation. When money disappears government gets desperate and imposes more and taxes in an attempt to squeeze more money out of the economy. During the Depression, the maximum income tax rate was raised from 20 percent to 55 percent, gift taxes were increased from .75 percent to 33.5 percent, and new taxes were levied on automobiles, gasoline, telegrams, telephone calls and even checks. By 1934, the United States had the highest tax rates in the world. In 1935 taxes were raised again. Historian Murray Rothbard estimates that the effective tax rate in the United States increased from 16 percent to 29 percent during the Depression.

Why it Could Be Worse Today

If such an event were to occur in today’s world, it could be far worse than the Great Depression.

People were far more self-sufficient in the 1930s, as large numbers of families lived on farms and grew their own food. Even many Americans who lived in town maintained gardens and chicken coops. In those days people also hunted for meat, canned and preserved their own food and baked their own bread. People also sewed their own clothes and fixed their own cars, which gave them a high level of self-sufficiency.

Today, most Americans rely solely on supermarkets for food, and many families no longer even cook. Few people bother to sew, and most of us do not even change the oil in our cars. If our money were to disappear, we would be as helpless as children.

It’s time that we learn the lessons of the Americans who survived the Great Depression. That lesson was to be as self-sufficient as possible so you can survive, no matter what.
