Desperate people do desperate things during desperate times – hyperinflation, shortages and war will have Americans reliving the 900 days of Leningrad

This morning the CPI (Consumer Price Index) report came out and was higher than expected (Inflation stayed red-hot in May as CPI spiked 8.6% — highest since 1981).

(Article by Stan Szymanski republished from EncouragingAngels.org)

It is kind of like telling someone who is buried on the beach up to their neck in sand that the tide is coming in but not as fast as you think it is.

Most of the food prices I see are up at least 15-33% from what I was used to paying. I know that the standard government numbers say that food inflation is 10% up for the year (CNBC 6/10/22), but I think that we would all agree that that report is just a story, a fabrication. I used to pay $8.00 for a can of Folgers coffee at Wally World; now it is almost $15 and the can is smaller. Gasoline and diesel are both double what they were when Joey Poopy Pants sat down behind the big boy desk at Pennsylvania Avenue and the cost of fuel plays into the cost of every morsel of food as it is transported to stores all across the USA. Shortages across many sectors of the food industry are now commonplace.

And that sloppy old ELECTION FRAUD INSTALLED FAKE POTUS, screams at the cameras “please believe me, I have given you a wonderful economy”.

He and that criminal RAT Party enterprise needs to be removed from office.

I suggest people stock up on canned meats. Chicken, Tuna, Beef, ect. Don't forget canned fruits and vegetables is you're stuck in the cities. Water or water purifying tablets. I have no idea how bad it's going to get. It's just time we prepare for what's possible.

President Brain-Dead Biden responded to criticism for the skyrocketing inflation under his administration by screaming “We are changing people’s lives,” though he did not explain how changing people’s lives by causing inflation was a good thing.

“I don’t want to hear any more of these lies about reckless spending,” Biden yelled during the AFL-CIO convention on Tuesday. “We’re changing people’s lives!”

And to say we are going to be in “900 days” is a bunch of fear mongering.

“Desperate people...” I was mentioning this in our standard conversations about where the world’s economy was headed BEFORE the Covid nonsense. But I also added this, and will add it today:

Desperate countries...

As I’ve said for the last six years, every year is more “interesting” than the last. Remember when everyone was so happy that 2020 was over. HAHAHA!🤣

I think things are about to reach an “interesting” peak. This will be a summer to remember - but not as interesting as next summer.

Biden might as well be a cardboard cutout. Don’t waste your time blaming him. Focus on the real power.

A rarity that I haven’t seen in my 20 years in the subdivision where I live - I see wild rabbits (several times a week now) out in the lawns of some houses in the evenings just grazing and hanging out while the neighborhood cats and dogs are away.

The best filters; http://doultonusa.com/HTML%20pages/ceramic_candles_gravity.htm

They are the ones everyone copied that are called Berkey style filters. Doulton, formerly Fairey Industries, are the inventor and created them for the UK military.

How to assemble the filters into two 5 gallon buckets to make a gravity drip water filtering system.
