Loading ...Get Your Food Storage Now
With stores like Costco and Sams club food rationing for the first time, getting some extra food storage has never been a better idea. Even on a purse string budget you can get some extra food for your family. Remember that anything could happen and the time is quickly coming where you won’t be able to buy anything from your favorite grocery store. And if you think you can go “buy up” everything at the last minute you will be disappointed to find that the only things left are crumbs and dust.
Food Storage is an investment!
Many see food storage as a “waste” of money, time or effort. But remember that food storage is a sound investment, bringing you maximum gain with minimum risk. Unlike stocks or bonds food will always hold its value, even under different currencies or failing economies.
“Agriculture… is our wisest pursuit, because it will in the end contribute most to real wealth, good morals and happiness.” –Thomas Jefferson

So I heard a news report yesterday that has me questioning the validity of these “food shortages” we’re hearing about so frequently these days. One of the reasons given for the shortages was that people with family overseas are buying up bags of rice and sending them to their families who experiencing shortages in the Philippines and elsewhere. Rice shortages in the Philippines? Are you kidding me? Aren’t they like one of the larges rice producers in the world? What seems a more likely scenario is those that stand to gain from creating false scarcity to drive up market prices are playing the free market game and playing it well. Just like those who own the oil refineries create false scarcity to drive up oil prices and reap the huge payoffs. Maybe I’ll throw my hat in the game and go buy up all the toilet paper in my neighborhood and have a garage sale! $5 a roll – who’s with me?

Mike, you got it right, prices going up like crazy!
I am in Japan now, and food staples are up around 30 percent.
I like what you said on Cao blog. China with American style of capitalism is a disaster waiting to happen. Asian societies have always been community oriented, but once it is materialism driven, they would not know how to survive because Asians do not have individual survival skills of Westerners.
I would not be surprised if Soylent Green is in the works for China!

@Igor thirty percent increase in basic food supplies? Holy cow! How can you possibly keep pace with that… I guess by the same token thats not far off from the jacked up fuel prices in the US right now.

Yeah and it sucks because it’s not just “gas”, if gas goes up everything goes up. More expensive clothes, cab rides, zoo fees you name it. Not to mention, I think we will see upward of 5 or 6 bucks a gallon here in the next couple years.

If food and gas will keep going up we will need much
more than rice bags to save our ass …
