That would be quite a few years of stockpiling. But what about the storage facilities? Welfare square silo holds 19 million pounds. So, 10,000 of those ( if my math is right ).

Nothing wrong with that, but they cannot be your sole storage food. You need fiber, enzymes from sprouts, and the nutrients only found in the wheat bran/hull. Go half and half, whole kernels and white flour. If you don't want to buy a mill, just get enough kernels for sprouting, but you better have a replacement for the whole grain. Like the Ornamentals eat a lot of veggies with white rice.

If you look at the story of Joseph, seven years should be what every person of faith (or common sense) should strive for.<br /><br />The civil defense doctrine of the fifties became a joke because their recommendations were based on the assumption that the mighty machine that won WW2 could rebuild itself in two weeks after an attack. Even Kearney only gave instructions to keep fourteen days of food and water. Most of his expedient shelter plans were barely three feet wide. Conventional wisdom said two weeks were long enough for the bulk of the radioactivity to dissipate. Two weeks, something repeated by FEMA all the way up to last year when they finally decided a month was better.<br /><br />DHS chuckled and sent a memo out to all it's members saying they better have six months worth. Those are people that will have the pick of whatever fedgov supplies are available long before it filters down to the average peon.<br /><br />I don't know what you have planned for tomorrow, but I hope it touches on The Alpha Strategy some. Money spent on long term supplies doesn't have to be accompanied with any more paranoia than knowing for sure inflation will occur.

The quarter from which it will break is in doubt, that it will break is not. We'll discover who the real preppers are after the first hard blasts roll across the land. In war this is known as "first contact with the enemy", the violent unraveling of faulty imagining that exposes the viable core, if any.<br /><br />When gentlemanly prepping doesn't cut it, and it won't for long, we'll find out if they can up their game to become survivalists. My estimate: each step will eliminate more than half, meaning fewer than one out of four self-proclaimed preppers will continue to master the maelstrom as competent survivalists. Then it comes down to how many survivalists will actually survive. I'm guessing most.<br /><br />Why most? The hard lessons will have been learned. Scarcity of resources is one thing, scarcity of will and skill another. The first is challenging, the second, fatal. Events don't select survivors, they select themselves.<br /><br />Those who believe prepping is tinfoil hat stuff have revealed they plan to fail. And fail they will. It's here the casualty list will be longest."<br /><br />http://www.woodpilereport.com/html/index-609.htmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-64615392192496997632019-12-24T07:33:25.531-08:002019-12-24T07:33:25.531-08:00Just about fully agree with all of Jim's docto...Just about fully agree with all of Jim's doctorines here. <br /><br />At least with this information availability via internet and mobility of people, we holdout true disciples of 'Survivalism' (the unadultered non wussy watered down religion-lite version) have an advanced woke grasp of the never before dynamics occuring live and in technicolor, today and right now. <br /><br />The friggin one year fantasy time frame until recovery is bull spit. Simple war seiges in little corraled areas went on for years on end to this day and occur now. Fema and ngo volunteers on bus caravans are not coming to your redoubt hermitages at day #366 to nation rebuild your ass. <br /><br />"This time it's different" ain't some corporate motto. <br /><br />What part of frenemies eventually slaughtering family and others not be clear enough. What part of starvation with ribs and bones protruding from a rag wearing body not be indicative. <br /><br />This is not a scholastic based anti-drug scared straight program, it is a 'now' by ample evidence and clue bat strikes= reality. <br /><br />Plan really accordingly.
