Thanks to “just in time” inventory practices; America has an average of just three days of food on its shelves. Inventories are kept extremely well managed and “tight” thanks to the amazing efficiency of modern day transportation and manufacturing systems.<<<

Why have we let our country reach this point?

I know that there are many people who shop every day and do not have much in the pantry.

Even now, Scott only shops for me once a month.

LOL, and then forgets half of the list.

If we do have to depend on food and it is short, there will be riots like this world has never seen before.

Which reminds me, this week, on the police scanners, there is a new crime, I have caught it in 3 different areas, more than one report in an hour or so.

The man came home from work at midnight and found 3 people in his house, unknown to him, making them selves at home.

He ran them out [was he armed?], and called the cops.

Or, the man came out of his bedroom, in the middle of the night and found 3 people had taken over, unknown to him, he locked himself in the bedroom and called the cops.

They managed to get away.

Just samples of what is really happening, nothing stolen or wrecked, but what they thought were empty homes and they would take over.

The first one that I caught, I assumed they were robbers, but when I kept hearing them, I thought they might be homeless and tired of being homeless.

Your article is right, America does not know what she has to face and few will believe you if you tell them.

The jobless are going to get hungry and will do anything to feed the families.

Barter will be the money of the future.

PEOPLE ARE WAKING UP!

News updates will be VERY SLOW for the next week due to a massive demand for Dare To Prepare. Much is happening right now that has the power to change our lives. People have awakened to the fact that we must take care of ourselves and not depend on government agencies. It's frightening to think FEMA is our "disaster deliverance". Thanks for your patience. —Stan and Holly
