Savage mentoned the money printing thing last week. Said the money is based on nothing, which seems to be true. But then he said that printing more money reduces its value, which is kind of illogical since it is already worth zero. I am watching Peak Oil, which would cause this commodity inflation if it is happening, which is not clear at this time but is possible.

We aren't that powerful when it comes to food exports, but Fur Shur we export the grain that keeps 'em from starving.

Come the next big round of famines (as the climate cools and dries) we definitely need to push the issue of "Franken food" ~ and that is that they either buy it or simply starve!
