Now, I know what you are saying.  Oh, golly, we don’t need to kill Indians any more and our Boys In Green are super deluxe professional Ninja Warriors and by golly just having one show up in his tacticool forty pounds of ballistic protection will fill the unruly mobs with fear and they will all forget they are hungry and disperse peacefully.  Hey, I have a bridge with attached fallout shelter I want to sell you in Northern Idaho, too.  Fill out an estimate for all assets and estimated future earnings, double that and send it to me in bearer bonds.  You really think there is no more need for militias?  And, duh, I’m talking about the government controlled militia, not the circle jerk boys wheezing their way on to the paintball field to engage in glorious and goose bump educing games of “cover me” and “give me suppressive fire”.  Why, my state and county doesn’t have official militia, you cry.  Isn’t that the Feds that do that?  The Feds insist everyone is a militia member, if of sound body and within an age group.  How they then disperse or use those members is also up to them.  Local control might be one method, and probably the only available one as transportation and communication break down.  But before you get all excited, thinking you are going to be a super bad ass in the city militia, you are far less Tommy Tactical and way more African Child Soldier.

The future of our industrial oil age military is bleak.  They will shrink in size as the cost of corporate welfare rises and equipment costs skyrocket, squeezing personnel costs as the overall budget shrinks, while at the same time less troops will try to fight or hold more territory.  Any withdrawal from an area will match numbers reductions, leaving every military unit understaffed.  Especially the CONUS ones.  The National Guard used to fill in for those units but as the overall military size decreases those troops are also sent overseas.  The police, no matter how many armored carriers or M16’s they have, are already stretched in “normal” fiscal times and will prove to be about 100% ineffectual come serious emergencies.  The better staffed police in the 1960’s couldn’t contain civil unrest then and the college educated idiots they employ now stand less chance.  They might look Billy Bad Ass with SWAT teams and such, but the only thing they have going for them now is their reputation for berserker lashing out unprovoked or for ganging up on the near powerless.  Only fear of irrational morons keeps the police in power right now.  But while everyone might fear bullies, they also know how to defeat them easily.  If you are a LEO, beware that day.  Even if you are professional and fair, your brethren in the big urban war zones have painted you with an unfair brush.

It will take very little time for all levels of government to understand they don’t have enough well equipped or well trained police or military forces.  The military can’t come home or we lose even more oil, and they can’t expand the police due to Union protection of training standards made to minimize personnel and maximize pay ( which is of course understandable, but an unintended consequence ), not to mention casualties from the initial stages of conflict, and at some point the militia is going to need to be activated.  This will be a draft in name, to replace cannon fodder casualties overseas, or an actual armed male conscription for local cannon fodder.  The police won’t cede power, and will be kept as MP’s for the militia, and the militia will be used and misused and abused.  At the beginning, armed dudes are deputized against criminal activity.  It will soon degrade into riot control against hungry protestors.  And eventually you will be unwilling foot soldiers fighting for the local politician in the New Feudal conflicts.  You won’t be fighting to save your family or home but as foot soldiers keeping the local baron in power, or helping him get into power.  History is against you, sorry.  American militias as dictated and/or allowed by government is merely free armed forces for the elite.

Okay, we are done with that.  Now on to food control.  I want you to think about a few things.  Indians on the reservation or independent as the buffalo was eradicated.  The widespread malnutrition during the Great Depression ( when most folks farmed-or, at least they did prior to eviction ).  How zoning and taxes work against you farming for calories, 90%+ of the time.  And do not forget this last drought along with a two decade old grain shortage.  Not to mention corporate farming centralized.  Now, tell me how food control was never used and never will be.  Go on, I’m waiting.  Any one?  Bueller?  Lack of gun control, at least the aspect leading to your deputization, will certainly endanger you, but food control will be no picnic either.  Food surplus now keeps the masses in line, not gun control, and that is 99% petroleum oil dependent, from fertilizer to transport and storage.  But the food we grow and eat is already centralized in the hands of just a few big players ( I’m not speaking of the centralized selling of convenience foods-Nestle and Phillip Morris or whoever-but basic commodities ).

*

Care to bet how long it will take for that industry to be under the control ( if not the profit ) of the government?  Remember Nixon and his control of the industry back when?  Under the guise of combating inflation, he encouraged consolidation for price savings.  And that was an industry more decentralized than now.  It would be much easier today, faster.  Don’t forget that.  History shows food being used as a weapon time and again.  How could it not?  Food is everything.  Riches and sex don’t hold a candle to it.  We killed the buffalo off to starve out the Indians we didn’t want to spend money on defeating militarily.  We didn’t offer all that much food for the hungry during the Great Depression, fighting with food any inclination to rebel ( they were starved by the time it was known they needed to fight back.  The Depression was denied not to keep the investors in Wall Street but to keep the poor from taking to the streets.  Realization came AFTER they were already weakened.  Food relief and make work programs came after that ). 

*

Profit maximization is primarily why you are kept out of the competition growing your own food, but not the sole reason.    You are allowed to grow supplementation, but not allowed complete calorie independence.  The government and the corporations want to keep that control, and taxes and zoning and regulations keep 99% of us dependent.  The corporations need the profits and the government needs the control.  Obviously, food independence can be done, but so can complete personal freedom.  The cost is merely held to be too high for all but a niche minority.  Most play the game.  Work for pay chits to buy food or die.  Yet even most nearly independent on food are completely dependent on oil from overseas, so their independence is largely illusion.  The troops are kept overseas for food energy, more than anything else ( just because it is all profit orientated now doesn’t negate this as a necessity ).  And you pay all of life’s idiot bills such as paying twenty plus times what a home is worth or getting sodomized over auto ownership, basically to stay close to the food chit job.

If you can’t see how complete the control over you is, mistakenly thinking asparagus cultivation as food independence, why, how about another brochure on that bridge I’ve been trying to interest you in?  Which kind of ties in with Yuppie Scum Survivalist food storage, doesn’t it?  They are completely dependent on both staying at their corporate employ AND being reliant on high technology foodstuffs.  They are more controlled than poor peasants with a sack of grain.  I had to throw that in.  Sorry.  I think.  And how about that “homesteading” movement?  Thirty year mortgages make you so NOT food independent.  Before you can think about freedom and independence you need to understand how you are enslaved.  You are both confused about gun control and about food control, completely living in an Orwellian DoubleThink existence.  War is peace, control is freedom.  Most of what you are doing to make yourself independent is tightening your chains.  Does this suck?  Of course!  But action without enlightenment is control.  And enlightenment without action is still slavery.  Damn, this thinking crap is depressing.
