One of his top trends: Neo-survivalism
Quote: In 2010, survivalism will go mainstream. Unemployed or fearing it, foreclosed or nearing it, pensions lost and savings gone, all sorts of folk who once believed in the system have lost their faith.
Motivated not by worst-case scenario fears but by do-or-die necessity, the new non-believers, unwilling to go under or live on the streets, will devise ingenious stratagems to beat the system, get off the grid (as much as possible), and stay under the radar......

So Hubby and I would be considered in the top 5 % ,but we have been watching the trends for years,paid off our house,no debt, been buying gold since it was $250 an ounce we have played in the market( short term)in out and taken our profits and invested in commodities,but in the meantime we have employed people that would have lost everything,if we didn’t have any money>So now the Government is coming for us,and will be taking the money we would have spent employing people and bankrupt us.
All for the greater good!
Tell that to the people that would have been employed by us for years,now we can’t pay them after the feds get done with us
So to finish the story,I have been stocking up on essentials,gas,soap,toothpaste,I have bought a generator,vitamins,aspirin,motrin,contact solution,and lots and lots of food.
So if I have a net worth of millions,and I am taking measures to feed and take care of my extended families,my grandbabies(because my kids don’t see the peril) my Mom (because she has no money) My friends because they will have nowhere to go,and no money to get anywhere.
Am I paranoid or just prepared??

Isn't it more likely that a county who's citizens are prepared for disaster is stronger as a whole and better able to cope in times of emergency? Duh! Just imagine if ALL Americans were well armed, trained and had enough provisions to hold out for three to six months. The stability these actions would impart are immeasurable.
Patriot Babes on Horseback... I likes that picture!

I just finished reading the story you posted the link to. Took me all weekend but it was well worth it. Thank you.
I am glad you enjoyed it.
What a sick sense of humor John had. It is as if he hated all of mankind and wished every one to suffer who didn't believe as he did.
I watched Once Upon a Time in the West the other night for the first time. I was amazed at how fast those stagecoaches can go LOL
Who could blame him after consideration of the evil he witnessed during his lifetime?
Revelations wasn't one of my favorite books in the bible. I couldn't make sense of any of it until lately. It's starting to make some sense now as events unfold.
I believe there are powers and realities beyond our understanding or comprehension. Even observations of the physical world that we are capable of interacting with continue to us baffle us. I therefore would suggest that we may witness many of John's recorded prophecies actually fulfilled during our lifetime.

How did we do?
