More signs of the approaching collapse of the dollar. Major funds like K.K.R. are spending big bucks to reposition themselves into the resources sector. K.K.R. recently spent $1.5B to set up shop in Calgary, Canada so they could be closer to the action and away from the impending doom that will be America. Foreign governments are still buying into gold as well as the gold production and mining sectors. China and Russia have an agreement to abandon the dollar and trade their currencies between themselves. To sum up, the world is beginning to get away from the petrol dollar and into trading either their own currencies or commodities. And when that happens the American dollar, and you by definition, will have your goose cooked. Unless your already into precious metals and have beau coup trading items. And if your not as yet, why not?
BTW, the U.S. national marketable debt has more then doubled under maobama, it's up 106% since 2008.
Interesting news item, the new director of ICE, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency resigned after only 5 months on the job. Either he wasn't aware of all the ramifications that went with the position or he found out how crooked the maobama regime really was and couldn't stomach their plans as he was fully integrated into them. Either way he's gone and who knows who maobama will appoint next to fill that important DHS arm. When questioned as to why he was quitting, he gave no answer????
Warren Buffets favorite ratio of Dow to the GDP points to an imminent 50% crash in the Dow. Is that why he and so many other big money people are deserting the market and running to precious metals and other commodities???
Troubling news about America's ability to deal with terrorists within our borders. Seems that the FBI thinks making friends with them will make them like America better. The muslim group Jamaat al-Fuqra has a series of training camps across America, in almost every state. They claim to be peaceful and say they are not terrorists. Yet video shows them training women in martial arts, weapons handling and combat techniques at their Hancock, MA facility. By coincidence that was the same facility where there is video showing misc. FBI agents having a friendly lunch with these non-violent ragheads. BTW, the lunch took place AFTER the FBI had placed the group on the terror organizations watch list that was sent to EVERY FBI field office. Sort of makes you wonder if the FBI has target identification problems. Maybe they're to busy watching home grown terrorists like the tea party to watch these peaceful (?) muslims. Or were they told to lay off these boy buggers by someone higher up? Like maybe in the oval office???
Just in, the federal government strikes again. Seems a federal judge has struck down the Neb. law OKing the Keystone to be built across it's territory. The reason hasn't been announced as yet, but this is just another way for maobama to try to roadblock the pipeline and still divert blame away from him or the Democrats in this crucial election year. And you wanted to know why your gas prices are surging, again.
To get away from all the gloom and doom news, there are some survival tips I hope you can use.
First concerns a question I got about which method was better for storing food long term, dehydrating or freeze dried. The short answer is freeze dried. Dehydration foods will keep for up to several months or slightly longer, depending on how dry you get it. The dryer the better and you'll know because very dry foods have a brittle texture. While freeze dried foods will last a number of years. Both foods storage life depends on how and where they are stored. The quickest way to destroy your stored foods is to let high temperatures, moisture or light touch them. Contamination, bugs and rodents complete the spoilage list. And always rotate your stored foods using the oldest first. So be sure to date all your stored foods and use FIFO as your motto, first in-first out.
The second tip concerns using canning jars to allow access to frequently used items like salt, rice, sugar, etc. while minimizing contamination possibilities. Someone suggested using lids from salt containers with the pour spout and that will work. However in my house a box of salt lasts a real long time right now. So instead I use the plastic tops of milk or juice bottles. I cut the tops off, completely clean and drain dry the tops, then using the outer ring from my canning jar as a template I draw a line where I want to cut off all the excess plastic. Then I attach the top to the jar and hold it in place with the ring. Works like a charm and is reusable for many times. If it's very humid and your worried about the humidity entering the jar, use a small piece of plastic wrap under the bottle cap and that will keep the contents nice and dry.
