The 3rd Wave, Evacuation From A Disaster Location
Let me preface this article by acknowledging the source for the idea of this article comes from another peppers’ video.

Argentina, Fascism after Default

The Time Is Now, and It’s Not Too Late
I’m sitting in another damn airport. Not bitching, however, just another damn airport. I have to rant a bit. The time is now. The time is now if you are not a prepper to prep. The conversations I have had with friends who are in the real world (Middle America) verifies that now is the […]
