This podcast was recorded in the car and there was more road noise than I wanted, but these are some important thoughts, please bear with me. Lets talk about how rising food prices can lead to reduced food production. Also why the return on investment for buying a freezer full of beef might be better than putting your money in the stock market this year. I'm not giving financial advice, just a discussion of current events.
Unexpected Consequences of Food Inflation

Sounds crazy, but it you were a tyrant, how could you get control of a nation. How to lose control of your life and liberty 1. create a food shortage or make food so expensive people can't afford it 2. give it some time, let the prices rise 3. tell the people that the shortage has a solution, but we have to give more control to the government 4. wait for the us to get more and more desperate for food for us and our families 5. remind us that the problem was caused by X but the government has a solution 6. wait for us to beg for food 7. promise to fix the problem, take more control and take our liberty away 8. never fix the problem, but its too late we gave away our liberty Is this the most likely scenario? I don't know. However there is a way to protect your community and your family. A Real Solution without the Government Steps to Keep Control of Your Life and Liberty 1. Grow some or part of your own food. 2. Preserve and store that food 3. Teach your neighbors to grow and preserve food 4. Help your neighbors grow and preserve food 5. Your community can thrive Join me a I discuss how to help your community thrive in tough times.

Lets take a few minutes and discuss how to improve your food security and your food supply foot print. You don't have to be completely reliant upon the grocery store. Lets talk about some ways to improve your food security. CSAs (community supported agriculture) are a great way to source more of your food locally. There are several websites that provide listings of local farms that provide a CSA product. LocalHarvest.org is a good example of a website that can connect you with a local CSA.

Lets walk through and take a look at every campsite in the Family Camping area. If you are trying to figure out which site to select. This might be a good start. I also take you down the connector trail from the camping area to the picnic area and lake. This isn't an exciting video at all, but if you are planning to camp at Millpond State Park then it should help you select a site. It really is a nice place to camp with campsites that are a nice distance from each other. Enjoy!

Join me as I walk down the trail from the family camping area to the picnic area at Merchants Millpond State Park in NC. Its a great place to camp and enjoy the beautiful weather. Lets talk about the downstream effects of censorship. How cultural tropes like "don't talk about race or religion" make it easy for censorship to take hold and destroy a country.
