I have noticed the shortages including dehydrated #10 cans at many preparation sites. Some I have been dealing with for over ten years and this is the first I have seen. Beprepared.com is one that has many out of stock items which is very unusual for them.

I just commented on the Comex thread that I think the problem is more than just the government. I think people are beginning to wake up. I think it is still a small minority, but it will not take much to stress the system.

The grasshoppers through quantitative easing are destroying the assets of the ants. This is enough to wake up anyone that has worked hard, practiced thrift and saved. I believe the real panic will come later when many will not be able to afford the food luxuries they have always known. This is when the takers will become dangerous.

It is best to take care of as many preparations that you can now before inflation destroys your purchasing power and shortages begin. Consider anything you purchase now as money in your own bank.

I have been in this mode for a least two years.

I've been doing that for 2+ years...

Excellent point.
