"I see a bad moon risin'

[Mgderf]

"I see bad times today..."

I stopped by a local gas station this afternoon that I frequently visit.
The clerk and I have talked before, small talk, current events...but we don't know each other outside of the station.

When I stopped by today he asked me what I saw in the near future for our country.
I told him I don't think it's going to be an easy time ahead for a lot of people, and he agreed.

We discussed the food shortages at stores, the difficulties of business owners to find/hold help, rising gas prices, housing...

"I see earthquakes and lightning.
I see trouble on the way..." So what does Ingo think?

I have to agree. As I told a friend last year, 2020 is a prelude to the clown show of 2021. Now I'm thinking 2021 is just a prelude the the s***show that's going to be 2022.

So people are finding out that bad tweets really weren't so bad?

You'll never get them to admit it.

I'm afraid very difficult times lay ahead. The consequences of intentionally removing our nation from elite global status is going to be painful for generations.

I can't imagine that anyone could disagree unless they are living in some other reality. You don't need to be Fellini to figure this one out..

Current events with a CCR reference. You can’t get that just anywhere.

The USA needs to change and regain its status as the lead country on the planet.

 

[jsharmon7]

I doubt it’ll be abrupt. More shortages, higher prices, higher crime, etc. I’m not up-armoring my Silverado just yet. Shortages haven’t been an issue for me so far. Local gas station hasn’t had bottles of Coke products for a month, but I can live without it.

To get a picture of the near future, look at the recent past.
In my 60 some odd years on this earth I never remember bare shelves in supermarkets or the level of divisiveness this country is currently experiencing.
As our resident in the white house has said....this is going to be a dark winter.

Is that the song I'm thinking about?

A big thanks goes out to many on INGO, who helped me be prepared for whatever may well happen.

There is a lot to learn here, especially beyond the politics section.

I'm ready for whatever it may be, with tools and more importantly skills.

Dave Canterbury said it best in a video last year, during the toilet paper shortage...

"They ain't laughing at preppers now, are they?"

Fact check of the fact checkers:

Didn't know my great grandmother, but my mom sure as heck did! She even washed and saved those thin plastic "baggies" back before there were Ziplocs.

Yep, same here.
The idea of being frugal has gone the way of the do-do.
