Does that mean that Treasury Bonds are not a good investment?

I know how it works ... the taxpayer/citizen gets the shaft through the hidden tax of inflation. Well, maybe you don't.
Some citizens make out just fine under inflation. These people are usually called debtors. But even someone who just has real assets (as opposed to cash assets) benefits because the government is effectively repudiating the debt by inflating the currency which lessens the debt burden on the citizens.

Or they try to suck out the inflation (treasury debt.) by “Steal Care.”....you know cause it’s all about “health.”

Obama's billions of lying words amounts to POTUS uncredibility inflation
everyone in the USA is hunkering down and stuffing money in matresses until the Obama hurricane blows over, and now its spreading to the rest of the world
the guy has a brown touch, every thing he touches turns to poop
every time Obama opens his mouth with another BS speech (which is twice a day) the entire world cringes and hides their money

>> The were holding interest bearing paper; and now they are holding non-interest bearing paper.
Maybe they have some place better to put their money.
I hear Greek sovereign debt is yielding pretty high these days.

It means an immediate end to all government spending that is not mandated by the Constitution and likely a default on SS/Medicare and on government debt.
Joy....

...is there some way I can vacuum pack the bulk food I store in them without having to vacuum pack the food in bags first before storing it in the bucket? You can use mylar liners. Regular plastic is porous and does not keep out air.
Place the liner in the bucket, fill with wheat, rice, etc., place some oxygen absorbers on top, heat seal the mylar bag using an iron. Wait until the next day to pound down the lids, because the oxy absorbers will make the liners contract; you don't want the sides of the bucket to suck in.

Why not bury or keep underground? That's okay if your container won't rust and will keep rodents from gnawing holes in them.

What about the 5 gallon pails that are vacuum packed with various kinds of wheat? If the vacuum holds are those good almost indefinitely? What if the vacuum packed pails are stored in the summer at 80 to 90 degrees F. How much am I losing there? Thanks.
The Walton Feed site states that constant temperature is the best and avoid an outside shed. The biggest impact is a lost of taste.

“Some citizens make out fine.”
Correct. And their names will be Bernanke, Geithner, Paulson, etc.
Let me amend my statement to suit your hubris: Most citizens will get the shaft.

To: kingpins10
No fool. I wasn't thinking of the Bernankes, Geithners, and Paulsons. You sound like an envious lefty. Everyone always gets the drop on you, don't they?
