Investigate Earth Conspiracy Podcast - Food Shortage 2021 | Survival Podcast

Episode Date: September 4, 2021

On this episode we discuss the possible food shortage that could be coming to America towards the end of 2021 or possibly 2022. Many people are calling this the Food Shortage of 2021. We all need to be doing things now to prepare and prep. Prepping is always a good idea, especially when you need it to survive. This is our Survival Podcast episode on the Food Shortage of 2021.

Is a devastating food shortage inevitable in the months ahead? Is the United States government using climate change as an excuse to ensure a mass food shortage? Food shortages are already happening around the world in the name of climate change policies in addition to the pandemic. What can you do to be prepared? Stay tuned. And soxicated. I'll fish in our street. Swimming towards a vicious tree.

And welcome to to Investigate Earth podcast and we're actually going to be doing this podcast for Primal Survival Podcasts as well. So both audiences, welcome. I am your host Chad alongside my wife Sherry. Say hello, Sherry. Hello.

So yeah, we're going to be doing this podcast for both podcasts, Primal Survival Podcast. You guys can check that out, Primal Survival Podcast.com or you can find us on any of the other, or basically anywhere you find, investigate Earth, you can find Primal Survival. So we do more of the survival stuff over there.

And obviously, Investigareth, we do kind of everything else. So welcome both of our audiences, and we will have this episode up on both podcasts. So we felt like this was a very important episode to do for many reasons. There's a lot of talk coming out about a possible food shortage in America in 2021 and 2022. Now, we've already kind of seen a little bit of what can happen during a pandemic. I mean, we saw it with toilet paper. We saw it with things even like dog food. hand sanitizer

yeah hand sanitizer all the craziness and you know unfortunately or fortunately I guess fortunately in that case it was really just due to mass panic of people and when someone panics

and then things happen like that you start seeing everyone stockpiling stockpiling stockpiling and that was really what created the shortages of toilet paper believe it or not and I still never understood that yeah I can I mean I just it just doesn't make sense

I mean, I can get, like, if you stockpolling food. But the weird thing was, during the pandemic, there really wasn't, in the beginning, at least. People weren't going and buying pounds of chicken and pounds of steak and pounds of eggs. And they were buying toilet paper. I mean, that was insane. Yeah, so that was basically panic shopping, I think. Panic stocking. Well, that should tell you also, though, how many people would die in an actual natural disaster?

Because, I mean, you know, for those to be to listen to our show or especially what we're going to talk about on today's show. That should give you some comfort, just the fact of how many people went out and bought toilet paper when they felt like the world was ending rather than food or anything that they could actually survive on. I had always wondered, like, if they were going to eat toilet paper. I wonder if there was any nutritional benefit in that, but I don't think there was. So let's talk about the food shortage, and let's give a little brief synopsis on why we're

at this position that we're in, and there's a couple of reasons. I don't think it's just one or the other. I think it's kind of a cumulative, you know, a number of things, I guess, that has happened over the course of the past year, year and a half. And I feel like when there is a food shortage or if there is a food shortage that is coming, that it may or may not be intentional. There are some things and some reports out there that really make zero sense that we're going to talk about. And, you know, we've verified a lot of these things. So these things are not just, you know, rumors or social media rumors or conspiracies or any of that stuff. It kind of just goes a little bit deeper even in policy.

So let's talk about the pandemic like we did a minute ago. The pandemic started, you know, back in 2020 and around, you know, February or March. There's a lot of people that said that even doctors are inside people that leaked information since that said they knew about this pandemic for a while before the pandemic actually even started. So there's really no telling how long the pandemic had actually began. There's no telling how long the virus had got out and how long it was affecting people. And so what happened was once everyone started freaking out and didn't want to get in public, they started going and buying everything, everything they could. Now, as I said a minute ago, we didn't see the food shortages then because not then anyway.

And even when, you know, chicken plants and Tyson and some of these companies, even when they started having mass outbreaks of COVID or coronavirus or whatever you want to call it, you know, there was a lot of people that were staying out of work. Now, because of the way the food chain works, food chains, you don't typically see, you know, the immediate impact of that then. And I'm not saying even with a food shortage coming that that's what we're going to see. But I think rural areas and places less populated are going to see the impact before bigger cities. Possibly. I mean, it depends because there's already school systems. seeing it across the country already right now.

Across the United States, there are schools that are seeing that they're not having a lot of the meal items for their kids. There are, you know, food trucks are supposed to be showing up six or seven at a time and there's only one of them showing up. And, you know, these people are ordering food months in advance and they're still not getting it. So you're really starting to see something really start building up. And we're going to get into the reasons of why this could be happening.

And what really is the most fearful thing. Now, what I will say is it was strange to me, and I think this has everything to do with media. If you look at Y2K, if you remember Y2K in the year 2000, right? Do you remember that, Sherry? Do you remember how? Of course, yeah. Freaked out everybody was? Everything was going to end.

Yeah, my mom was actually one of those. And in 2000, you know, my mother doesn't listen to our podcast anyway. But yeah, in the year 2000, my mom went and stocked up on everything. I mean, the... Especially water. Everybody was stuffing up on water. My mom had beans and beans and beans for days. She had flour and you name.

And actually, she still has that stuff upstairs. Yeah, because older people don't get rid of that stuff. Yeah. Even though I don't know that now you could eat it. It might kill you now. But she still has that stuff. And my mom worried about that for... I don't even know when everyone started hearing about it,

but I think it was like 99, even maybe the end of 98. We started hearing about a Y2K situation. And so what drove that panic and what drove that prepping? Well, what drove it was the media. The media is what drove the Y2K fiasco. And the media is what pushed everyone to go out and buy tons of food and panic and freak out. Now, the Y2K thing made the media a ton of money as far as, you know, ratings and everything else. What turned out to be is that Y2K didn't happen, just like many other false flags or,

or, you know, all these things. I mean, literally the past 10 years, we've heard of, it's like every other year, either something's going to kill us or the world's going to end this way or some calendar is saying the world's going to end this way.

And I've never believed any of that. Yeah, I've never believed the Mayan calendar stuff. I've never believed any of that stuff. That's just me. I mean, anytime I'd hear it November 12th, everyone's dead. I'm like, okay, whatever. Y2K was weird because it was like,

I don't know, I mean, it was the whole computer thing. Yeah, the whole computer thing is switching over from the, the 1900 and 2000s. Yeah, whatever. And even to me, that didn't make sense. But I was like, okay.

And mom was just, you know, continually buying up stocks. I mean, I did buy some stuff. Yeah. Well, and so the reason I wanted to bring the Y2K thing into this conversation is because, in my opinion, and many experts around the world, especially if you look at what's happening, and not even just our world. I mean, the UK, for example, there are second, there are second biggest, listening audience. So I will talk to the UK people a minute. They're already starting to see food

shortages before we are. The UK is actually having a tougher time than we are right now. And I think that that's not probably going to get better anytime soon. Right. And this is definitely a world. It is. It's not just the U.S. It's all over the world that there's food shortages for many, many reasons. Many reasons, but I think I know one reason that's really going to cause something big. But what I guess my point is, the Y2K thing just really was like, Like, if this happens, then everyone's going to need food. You're going to have no power and this and that and that. And so there was, I can't even, I mean, it was like everybody I knew back then was preparing.

You know, they were, I've never seen more preppers in my life than in 2000. And now, in my opinion and everything I've researched and many people around the world that really know this stuff, especially even, you know, economists and all these people that are looking at what's going on, you know, now's the time that people should be. preparing far more than they should have been in 2000. I mean, and the reality is we're not seeing nowhere near the preparedness now that we are then, or that we did then. And the reality is that, you know, 1999 to 2000 and then now in the next two to three, four, five years, what is the most risk to our livelihood in our way of life?

It was it back in 2000 or was it now? Well, it's now by a hundredfold. And there's a million different reasons for that. Number one, the pandemic. You know, when will the pandemic end? Who knows? You know, we do know there's a Delta variant and then there's other variants that are out there. And I believe it's just going to continue to be other variants.

There are already variants out there. There are vaccine resistant. If you look at Israel data that just came out, you know, the Israel data is saying that 50 to 60% of the people that are full, you know, and by the way, Israel is one of the most vaccinated countries in the world. I think they've got almost 80-something percent of their people vaccinated. They got 60 percent of their people. people in the hospital that are vaccinated with COVID. So, so, you know, and then there's all these new variants that are coming.

We don't know when the pandemic's going to end. That's one thing. The other thing is, which I know you've looked up some other stuff, but a big one is is climate change and policies that are being enacted on behalf of climate change. And so one of the things I wanted to talk about was there's a lot of farmers that are claiming now, and they're actually even showing their letters on YouTube videos, even though those videos are getting banned and TikTok videos, and anywhere they can put

these videos showing these USDA letters to these farmers, it's nuts. And what these USDA letters are saying is that basically they should destroy their crop. So what we're looking at is what is being done right now in the name of climate change? And the federal government of the United States is offering farmers 1.5 times the value of their crops if farmers destroy their crops. If farmers decline the offer, that same government will stop all farm subsidies for them refusing. Now, when you first hear

that, you're like, okay, that makes zero sense. Like, why would they do that? Especially when we're in a, like, food shortage already. Yeah. And then, and then you're like, well, why would they do that? Well, I do want to play this video, and this is a guy that, you know, starts talking about it. And there's, There's many farmers that talk about it. You guys can go find it. If you look up farmers destroying crop, I would suggest you look somewhere that they can actually have a video out there. But I'll play this to you guys, and you can list to it, and then we'll talk more about it. Something came up that I didn't really think about when my dad mentioned it to me.

He's worked in the agriculture industry for over 40 years. This year, farmers are being offered 1.5 times the value of their crops to destroy them. They're also being told by the federal government they will not receive subsidies for farming. if they refuse to destroy their crops. What does that mean? That means that the farmer cannot afford to provide you with food based upon the taxes the government is levying on him if the government doesn't in turn give him back his tax money

to provide you with food. Kind of a fucked-up system, but that's how it works. And, well, they're not going to subsidize them if they don't destroy the crops. They'll pay them more than what it's worth, and they want them to destroy it. They'll still get their subsidies. They're trying to create a food shortage.

We've got eight months to get our own food supply. We're probably going to be facing mass starvation. Good luck. And so that's one of the guys that his family owns a massive farm out in, I believe, Oklahoma. And then not only this gentleman, there are hundreds of other farmers that are posting videos of their letters that are asking them. And that's just crazy. Like, who does that? Who tells you basically to throw away everything you've been doing?

Well, um, throw away your food. The same people that have brought you basically, hundreds of millions of, you know, dead people from famine. I mean, there's been so many things we've looked past in this world as far as famine and people not eating. And, you know, it never affects us here. We've never really had that type of, you know, pandemic. I mean, if you look at it, it would be a pandemic to have no food.

You know, it's kind of the same thing or endemic. But they, you know, they've used food as a weapon. in places like the Ukraine and the former Soviet Union. If you look back on times like that, it was a way for them to gain and maintain control. They do it in North Korea. They do it in many other countries. And now they're going to sounds like, if this is true,

which everything we're reading is true, they're going to try it in the United States. Now, what they're going to use is climate change as the excuse. And so if you listen to that video, and then you go and listen to any of the other videos of the farmers are showing their letters from the USDA and saying they have to destroy their crop. The Biden administration announced on Wednesday, it was the 21st of April, that it would expand a program that pays farmers to leave land fallow, which means leave land, nothing on it. Yeah, part of a broader government-wide effort to cut greenhouse gas emissions by half in 20, or by 2030.

And the new initiative will incentivize farmers to take land out of production by raising rental rates and incentive pay. So they're going to start raising all these rates, tax rates, you name it. And they're going to do that, especially for farmers that decide to either grow or keep their farms. So the Conservation Reserve Program was created in 1985 to incentivize landowners to leave some of their marginal land unplanted. A plan meant to protect the environment by reducing agricultural runoff into streams and rivers, preserving wildlife habitats and prevent an erosion. And so today the Department of Agriculture, the Department of Agricultural, sorry, USDA rents about 21 million acres of farmland from landowners. So they rent this land. Typically, for 10 years at a time, a tiny fraction of a total land farm nationwide.

But in recent years, the number of acres enrolled in the CRP has fallen, possibly because the USDA's rental payments allegedly have not been competitive with the open market. So they're using climate change as a way to basically say, well, if you have, if you have, if you. you continue to grow your crops or you don't leave land unplanted. And they're doing this especially, even with crops that are just now being harvested, they're really, you know, because a lot of crops are now, we're getting towards the end of summer. April started, this is when the initiative started. This is when all these policies rolled out.

And now, so you've had the growing season that's been basically from April, now it's starting to end. And so now this is when farmers are really going to start having to make decisions. And I think this is why a lot of videos are coming out everywhere. because now they have to say, I'm either going to leave the stuff unplanted, but there were actual letters asking farmers to destroy the crops they had, and many of these farmers were doing it

because these letters told the farmers, you either do it or we will. It wasn't even given them an option. And this is millions of acres of farmland. So, you know, is there going to be a food shortage because of that? Obviously there will be. And there already is. I mean, there's already things in the grocery store

that we are not seeing. As much of. We know. And I think it's also, too, with the pandemic, you know, the unemployment and the people not working and people not wanting to go back to work. There's, Chad was in the grocery store the other day talking to a truck driver, remember? Yep. And he's like, you know, there's a shortage of truck drivers. You know, they're going to go on strike because of all this.

And then you think about, like, gas prices going up. You know, all these gas prices are ultimately affecting everything, transferring the food to the grocery stores, getting them there. workers. Then there's a bunch of like places where they transport food and like even China. So the world's second biggest port, it's shut down. So nobody even has containers to get the foods shipped anywhere. So a lot of these farmers in other countries that aren't getting these letters, their crops are just wasting. Their milk is just wasting because nobody can transport it anywhere. Yeah. And you know, I had also seen, you know, for anybody that's in any kind of, of shipping type, you know, career or anybody that depends on shipping, especially international

shipping, knows that over the past, you know, really since the Biden administration took place, they basically got rid of any of the tariffs that Trump had on all the other countries. Our government in the United States now is trying to make us the least independent we've ever been. Trump kind of made us, he was trying to make us the most independent and to really depend on ourselves. It was lower in prices. It was lower in cost of things.

why you saw the gas going down. That's why you saw so many prices that we deal with as Americans and as people here in this country anyway. We saw all those things really being stable for the first time in a long time. And it was nice. Yeah, really, really stable. And it makes you want to spend more money. Yeah, it does. You know, now when we go to the gross store or even buy anything, it's like ridiculous how much money we're spending on food and gas and even merchandise. Even building materials are. Building materials is went crazy.

Yeah, building materials went crazy. You know, the price of chicken is went up. The price of anything that you get in the grocery stores went up. And that is if they have it. There's grocery stores around here. We're seeing we don't have nearly the chicken. It's like once a day or once a week you'll find, you know, decent chicken. The rest of the time it's out of stock.

But it goes all the way down the line. And part of this also is starting to happen is, you know, if you think about it, if we're trying to get our farmers to destroy crops, and that's a legitimate thing, which it seems like it very well is. And there's other countries starting to use this as well around the world because it all goes to the climate accord, which is the international climate accord. This is kind of where there's a bunch of people and a bunch of higher-ups and elitist and government officials that get together.

They talk about climate change and they make all these ludicrous policies to truly inflict harm. and pain on the people, because that's really what it does in the end. There's been, now, look, we can argue and sit here, climate change is a whole other subject that we won't get into right now, whether you believe it's happening, whether you don't. I'm sure there's some climate change, many scientists. You know, it's kind of like, it's very similar to a lot of things about COVID. And, you know, yes, we know it's deadly, but there are two different sciences.

There are doctors and there are scientists saying, hey, these things work and this works. and then there's the mainstream people that say, oh, no, no, you can't dare say that because it's only this. And so that's basically what is also happening to climate change. There are scientists that say, look, the world naturally goes through its processes and all that stuff. And there's not a whole lot we can do with the way we are. Now, even if we got rid of all of the emissions and all of this and everything else, the world still goes through changes.

It still goes through climate changes. It still, and it always has. I mean, this happened the Ice Age, you know, and all of this crazy stuff that happened before. There was nobody here to affect climate change. And this is what- Yeah, this is what people don't realize. And I think- Unless you consider dinosaur poop or something.

No, but, yeah, and honestly, but the reality is, is like they've even tried to say things like that. Yeah, they'd say like cow pooping, things like that are causing it. Which it does, you know, it does emit gases, but, I mean, you know, the funny thing to me about the climate change argument is that what it takes to build batteries for electric cars is massive amounts of gas and gases. I mean, you know, the amount of products that goes into a lithium battery takes an enormous amount of pollution to the world.

I mean, just the mining of lithium and all this stuff is insane. So their argument is kind of BS, but it goes back to when this administration took office recently, we have basically done everything. It is obvious that this administration has done everything in the United States to make us completely dependent on other countries. And there's a reason for that. I'm not sure exactly what it is.

But we don't want to be dependent. We've shut down gas lines. We've shut down businesses. We've raised taxes on the rich. And we're doing it in the middle class. We're doing it in ways that people don't even realize. Inflation. You know, the inflation rate right now that they tried to say,

oh, this is going to be temporary. It's not. It's going to progress. It's going to progress. It's from 2008. That's the last time we've had it like this. Yeah. Well, and it's going to keep going.

I mean, the way the administration now is talking about is, oh, well, the inflation will, you know, it'll even itself out. But what we're starting to see is this not. It's actually getting worse. It's going to continue to get worse because there's no way with the policies that's in place for it to get better. I mean, we can't depend on other countries because we've shut everything down that was dependent on ourselves. And then also depend on other countries, which, by the way, are also. also going through pandemics, just what you were talking about when they're shutting down ports and all this stuff. So imagine if we start not depending on us, because we already, you know, we've already screwed ourselves on oil and gas.

We're continuing to do that. Sounds like we're screwing ourselves on food. And then we're taxing, you know, these massive companies. I mean, mega taxes. I'm talking about, you know, when your capital gains taxes and your business taxes are going up to 40 to 45 percent. And during Trump's time, they were at 23 or whatever percent. Trump did things when his presidency to bring, not only keep people here in businesses, he was doing things to bring our business back, which obviously in turn lowers our prices.

It lowers everything. It stabilizes our economy. And so now what this administration is doing is they're raising all the taxes. And so now it's going to make businesses find other countries to go to, like Mexico and South America. And you're going to start seeing more and more and more of that. And then what's going to happen is these countries are going to take advantage of that by taxing anything that's coming through import. They're going to charge us

ridiculous prices and they're already doing it. China's doing it. China has basically owned us for I don't know how many years and now we're basically putting the United States and our livelihood back in the hands of China. Exactly. Which is unbelievable to me, considering this freaking pandemic

that's caused millions of deaths is from China and now we trust China so much just like we trust the Taliban. Now we trust the Taliban and you saw how that worked out. I know. I mean, they're hanging people from freaking helicopter. Yeah, from our helicopters. Yeah, from our helicopters.

Yeah. And so the reason I wanted to get to that is because if you don't believe that now is a time to be preparing and to be really getting ready for a food shortage, then I don't know what to tell you. I mean, I really don't. Like, I promise you. And I'm going to tell you what we're doing. And this is something that we're going to do. And this is something that I want you guys to follow along with us on our journey to do this. And we're definitely going to have videos, and we really want to document this the best way we can.

And we really do want to do this. We've been talking about it and really seriously thinking about it. But, you know, where we live right now is, you know, we basically kind of live between a bigger city and then, I guess, a medium-sized city. And so what we're in right now is, I guess it's kind of like a manufacturing hub. I mean, it's just, you know, industrial, yes, for sure. That's all this around here. And so we're around a ton of people. We're around a lot of people.

or around a, you know, it's basically somewhere you wouldn't want to be in a mass panic situation where there's no food. Because let me explain something to people that doesn't understand this. If a pandemic where a virus can cause people to go crazy about toilet paper, imagine what happens when they have no food anymore? What happens then? Well, it's going to be breaking in the houses still in people's food, still in people's supplies. It would be that way. And a food shortage is a great way to get people to. hate each other even more because I mean honestly regardless the media and government has used the

pandemic to turn people against each other just like they did with race and everything else they did it with race black lives matter and now it's vaccinated and unvaccinated it's it's whether you believe in this and believe in but that's what they want they want everyone to be against each other so that we don't come together and fight this yeah and what does worry me I guess a little bit is is too that is that, you know, if you look around at other countries, it's great ways that countries use food shortages and all this stuff to control the people. There's no doubt in the United States alone, and I know UK's experience in a very similar situations in Australia, for sure.

Australia, their lockdown and all that stuff's going on down there is insane. But that's what's coming to the United States again. I believe that regardless, the government's not going to probably let their power go that they've already established. And so we got to know how to prepare and what to do with that. So one of the things I can say is that what we're planning on doing is we're planning on having a piece of property somewhere else. Now, we have properties, not us. We don't own properties, but we have places like family places or whoever. We could go if we didn't have our own property and that's fine as well.

But what we're really wanting to do is buy property that is not really a good amount of acreage. I mean, I would like something over 10 acres, if possible. and we want to have a you know just a place to be able to grow things year around and and create a system for that you know whether it be you know the use of greenhouses and irrigation and do all that stuff we'd like to have property with water on it you know we would like to have ways to protect the property as well and and and there's a lot of things that we want to do to prepare ourselves and it's not just buying cans and it's not just buying all the beans and the cans and saving up all this stuff in case there is a you know food's

shortage because there is going to be definitely. And I think this is going to be far worse than any food shortage we've ever had because we're already seeing it. You know, before like with the pandemic, you say it was mainly like toilet paper. It was not really food, maybe some dog food. But now it's really getting to the point where, you know, I'm worried about the grocery store is not having any food, especially meat and vegetables. Yeah. And anything that farmers grow or produce. Yeah.

And the more we can learn to not depend on the grocery store, the better off you're going to be. I mean, in just some many ways. I mean, you know, and the thing is, the government does fight that. And it's already starting to happen. They're already looking at, you know, there's one thing I want to bring to everyone's attention to right now that I think is one of the most important things I've seen lately. Well, we heard if you guys have been paying attention that, you know, social media was getting involved with misinformation with Facebook, meaning that they said, the White House and the government was helping Facebook identify misinformation when it came to COVID, basically meaning the White House was the ones now they're controlling what is said and what isn't.

Yeah, on Facebook. I'm sure they got some kind of deal worked out on Facebook. And even though that's highly unethical, illegal, it's everything else. It's government overreach, if, you know, if you've ever seen it. But what I had seen on Facebook the other day, I'm a part of a lot of groups. you know, a ton of groups that, you know, whether it be survival groups, bushcraft groups, I like to see what people are saying. I like to see what people are doing and kind of how they're reacting to everything that's going on.

But I did see one thing. And this was actually in a canning, simple recipes, food and garden, and preserving and crafting group. So it's a group for people that want to learn how to can or make simple recipes or gardening and preserving food or crafting things. You know, this is a group that is obviously completely innocent. But Facebook gave a warning to this group, and it gave a warning to some of the people that were in the group, and it said, are you concerned? And it was pointing to this group, and Facebook says, are you concerned that someone you know is becoming too prepared, question mark? This is literally what their warning message is. It says, we care about preventing extremism on Facebook.

Others in your situation have received confidential support. So they're worried about people becoming too Too extreme. Not too extreme. That's what they said. I know. But they're comparing preparedness or people preparing as extremism. Yeah.

That's what I was trying to say. It's crazy. Yeah. So you're not even allowed to have groups talking about canning food. Yeah. So now they're starting to really identify and monitor and censor survival groups, canning groups, anything that, that, could mean that you are not reliant completely on the government.

They are starting to censor that. And so they're taking it, you know, it's one thing, you know, here's a problem. Our ex-president is banned from social media. The Taliban leader has a Twitter account. He's literally posting videos and pictures of them hanging people from stuff. And shooting Christians. Yeah, and all these people are allowed to have social media groups.

But our president that has, that was for the people. I mean, he was for freedom, right? Regardless of whatever your political belief is. The past administration was for freedom. This administration seems like they're not. And it seems like... They're for government. Yeah, well, it's big government, and I think it is getting really, really out of control.

But the fact that Facebook and all these groups are starting to be censored and some of them are starting to already be deleted. You know, and then meanwhile, they would allow groups like Antifa that went and burned down city. and all this craziness last year in the United States, they allowed them to organize to an amazing degree. I mean, I'm talking about times, dates, here's where you're going to be. This is what we're doing. How many people are inviting? But yet, if you want to prepare yourself for starvation, you are considered an extremist now.

That's crazy. I mean, and like you said, it's right. They're allowing people like Taliban and, you know, real actual terrorist groups on social media, but they ban people like President Trump. I mean, who bans the former president in the United States? Like, who bans them? Well, they do. So it's their rules.

And, you know, and I think, and honestly, you know, I hate to say it, but I think the administration now and the people that were behind, like, getting Biden in office probably had a lot to do with that as well. Now he's inevitably, or forever banned, they say. So they're going to. Yeah, forever. That's obviously good for them because now he has no way to kind of. get to reach the people as far as running again. And they can't have someone running again that is going to screw up their entire agenda,

their whole agenda, which is, and this is not conspiracy guys. I mean, if you just look at it as, look at what's happening, I mean, when groups are getting banned just for canning and simple recipes and preserving food,

and they're being called extremist, like what, what are we, what world are we living in right now? And, you know, I started seeing this about six years ago. I saw it about six years ago.

when there's some survival people I watch on YouTube. And a lot of the survival channels started talking about, especially the big ones, that their videos were getting censored or black-labeled. People weren't finding their videos. People were getting unsubscribe from their videos. This started happening. And it slowly was happening and happening. And now it's happening even more.

I actually, the other day, just as a thing I thought I would do, I had not seen a lot of the guys that I watched survival-wise on my YouTube anymore. I'd never seen their videos. And so I just went to their channels to see if I was still subscribed, which on a couple of them, I'm not. And so I got unsubscribe from these channels by YouTube themselves. And then the ones that I was subscribed to, it's just not letting me see their videos. So it's almost like they don't exist anymore. Unless you physically go and remember to look them, they don't exist, according to YouTube.

So the things that the government and social media and everything is doing, it's not just censoring what they want you to say. or here or any of this stuff. It's now they don't want you to be prepared. They don't want you to have to not depend on the government. And there are laws already being enacted. You guys can look these up throughout the United States. There are counties and cities. They already have laws in place.

If you have land, you can't do this or you have to have power and you have to have this. You know, you can't just have land and let it be there. Or you can't just have land and then put like a, you know, I don't know, build a cabin with no power. They'll make you, if you don't have power, they'll condemn your property. Really? Yeah. It's nuts. I mean, and we've seen, I've started seeing many of these videos of people that have this,

they're starting to have this issue, getting all these letters, they're trying to sue the city or the states or whatever. So that's also a big problem. But what I recommend to everyone is that you start preparing now, you start thinking about how you're going to best be prepared. And it's not, I don't believe, just about getting food and buying food and stuff like this. I know not everyone has money to go out and buy land. But there are things you can do in every situation.

I mean, obviously, for the people that are looking to buy property in the next six months to a year, which, who knows with the way the real estate, real estate, as of right now, still high. I don't think it's going to stay that way. But for those of you that just do little things every day, like make decisions based on preparing and making sure that you're better suited for what could happen. future and that includes if you're buying a house you know maybe you pay a little you know maybe you pay not a little more but maybe you look more at how much land it has rather than just how nice of a house it is right um and you know there are houses that are not horrible but they're not you know they're not

the best houses but they may have five to six seven acres and water and yeah and all this stuff um do things like that look for land and you know there's a lot of land out there for sale and you know the reality is once you buy land you know land they don't make more land you know it's the land this here is the only land is ever going to be here and so when i think about investment you know land has to be one of the best investments you can possibly have and so um make sure that you're you're constantly looking for deals there are deals on land out there um and then start doing things to figure out and think about how you would use the land to self-sustain yourself and self-sustain your family and how you would be able to do that year around, not just, you know, not just in the, uh, the summer months. Um, you know,

some of our decisions right now that we're thinking about is, you know, we're thinking about, you know, okay, well, if we want to buy land, should it be North Carolina, whatever, but we're also thinking like if we want to grow and we want to have a garden and all this stuff year round, um, we also want to kind of be somewhere warmer to where it's not brutal in the winter to where we can, you know, grow things year around. Now, you can do it anywhere, obviously, but, you know, some of our decisions we're making right now is, okay, well, do we want to be in a mountain-type environment? Do we want to have land kind of down south somewhere? So those are all the decisions we're starting to make. We're starting to look at ways that we

can grow year-round. We're starting to look at animals that we could possibly, you know, get, whether it be cows or pigs or chickens or whatever the case is, and actually have a farm and a way to sustain the farm and a way to take care of the farm, especially if we're not living on the property to begin with. And then also looking at ways to grow year-round and have food and what is the best foods that we need to buy. And, you know, if you don't have animals, then obviously, you know, you want to be growing beans for protein. You want to be growing vegetables. You know, we're growing all the stuff.

Those are all the things we're looking at right now. And we're really trying to get serious about preparing for that. Absolutely. Absolutely. Now, I was just thinking about when you are talking about all that, that, everything that we're going to do. You know, we even have friends that are way younger than us in their 20s that they're also preparing and doing things. And, you know, he's a special friend of mine, my, I guess, kind of stepson or whatever. But anyways, he started buying just simple things like alfalfa sprouts and growing them.

And he sends me pictures of like two weeks of growth. And then it took them like, you know, from that. And then he started canning them. And, you know, he's already starting doing that because, I mean, there's a lot of people out there that really know it's coming. And it's really important for us to start now than later when it's too late. Yeah. Yeah, and, you know, especially one of the things that I think everybody should do is instead of watching naked and afraid or some of those things, really be watching videos of people that really know what they're doing as far as canning, preserving food, smoking food, you know, some of their systems they have, greenhouse, water gardens, or hydroponics, you know, all of that stuff. Look at ways that you can, even, you know, we were talking to our good buddy Justin that's been on the podcast quite a bit and, you know, talking about hydroelectric type stuff. And, you know, if you have water on your property, figure out ways that you could use the water for power rather than solar. I mean, solar is an option, but, you know, solar is always going to be more expensive.

It's going to be less effective. But if you had a property with water, you could definitely do some hydro-type electric stuff. You don't really even have to be a genius to do it. You just get to know how to do it and know what your process is to do that, especially if you have property with a river running through a dam situation, so on and so forth. And then you would be self-sustained on power. You'd be self-stained on food. you'd be self-stained on everything. And, of course, a shelter.

I mean, I think every property should have a shelter. It doesn't mean you have to live there. And, you know, I also, I go back to the shelter situation is, and it's not just, you know, most people say, oh, yeah, a shelter, you just put it underground. And, you know, I've saw those shows. And, you know, a lot of the shows, a lot of the things they show in there are just, I don't know,

some of them are realistic, some of them are not. But what I can say is, obviously, you don't want to stick out like a sore thumb either on land. You know, you don't want to have this big house and then all your stuff around, you know, where's the first place people are coming to? It's probably your house and it's probably because they know you're going to be prepared for everything. Right. So if they can kill you, they can just take over your property.

So also where you look at property, I mean, even if you have 10 acres of property and it's in the middle of a city, you know, you're still kind of like the target in the middle of the city. So, you know, find ways that you can make, you know, start planning now on what you can and can't do. Start planning things. If you can buy land, buy it. If you can start figuring out ways to grow your own stuff, just at least start, you know, experiment with it and figuring it out because I will say that gardening is not as easy as people think it is. It isn't. But it is a lot of fun.

It is. It is fun. And it's fun to see, you know, your garden produce actual food that you can eat. And it's so much better than the food you buy in the grocery store. Like, it actually has real flavor. Yeah. And there's a lot of ways, you know, even with tomatoes and all these things. There's so many ways that you can, you know, trim the plants and how you're supposed to trim them and when you're supposed to trim them and and this and that.

I mean, it all makes a huge difference in how the crop comes out and all this stuff. And the more you can learn about all these things, if nothing else, just start learning about it and then start having a plan in the back of your head. Well, what do I need to do to repair it? If right now it is all you can do is get, you know, cans and, you know, get there are a lot of companies out there that also do, you know, food supplies over the course of four and five months. lot of those companies are pretty expensive for what you're getting. Or you can buy like 50 pounds of rice or 100 pounds. Or the freezer dried or the stuff, the dehydrated meals and so on and so forth. And we're actually looking to work possibly with a company that we're going to figure out what the best one is to be able to kind of give you guys an option, at least that as an option, as an emergency food supply.

I think those are better for emergency food supplies rather than long-term. situations but if you know if I look at our future in this country I I don't know I mean emergency food supply may work but I really truly think people need to be starting to think about long term right exactly and just how to live off the land pretty much yeah and have your own land in know that you can survive without the government yeah because I mean and they that's the last thing we might get banned for that quicker and we get banned for sorry I mean seriously we might it's that that's what's crazy is when you you start seeing, when you start hearing talk about the government acting like you're,

you're not allowed to live without them, like that, that you're not able to do that. Like, this is their land, no matter if it's your land or not, it's their land. And we're in a free country, but we're not free. Yeah, and there's something else also that I wanted to, I wanted to show as well that is starting to come around. And it's being put in a lot of the stock groups. And I first started seeing it in the stock groups and so on and so forth. But this is something else that, you know, you've got to think about.

And what this government is doing right now is just, it's starting to make sense because, you know, if you think about they're starting to ban and call people that do, you know, canning and preparedness extremists, now there's a few banks out there. They're starting to post these statuses on Facebook and social media talking about what the Biden administration is requiring or about to require. and this one bank F&B Community Bank and there are others but it says as your community bank we want our customers to know the facts especially when it relates to concern and developments around public policy that exposes your financial privacy

it says the Biden administration has proposed to require in all community banks and other financial institutions to report to the IRS on all deposits and withdrawals through business and personal accounts worth more than $600 regardless of tax liability It says this indiscriminate comprehensive bank account reporting to the IRS can soon be enacted in Congress and will create an unacceptable invasion of privacy for our customers. It says we work for our customers in our community, not the IRS. Join us in telling Congress that provost IRS bank account profiling is intrusive and indiscriminate for our customers.

$600. So they're wanting to know. Everything. Yeah, now not only they want to know what groups you're part of, what you say, what you hear, what you don't hear, they want to know every dollar that you take out and put in. in, they want to know where it's going. And, you know, guys, honestly, this could have to do with, you know, I don't know. I mean, are they going to start saying, well, are they preparing? You need to make sure that we get them, you know.

It's scary and it's crazy. And all I'm saying is you guys need to be preparing. I think if there's any time in my life, my life. I mean, I've been alive for a long, for a decent amount of time, you know, and I've never seen anything like's happening now. I don't think anybody has unless you, you. you know, live through World War II and depression and stuff, but

I don't know, I think what we're headed towards can be well worse than depression. And I think, you know, this country's already probably more divided than it's maybe ever been. I mean, I mean, not ever, but, you know, it's definitely worse than I've ever seen it.

And they're going to use that. And they are using it right now because they're using it to get away with so much stuff. They're using it to get away with all these things. even the bank thing. I mean, the bank thing, you know, probably 90% of people don't know about that. But, you know, they know that if they got their side or this side has this side, they know they'll be able to get away with anything, you know,

because this side's going to protect them no matter what, because it's Trump versus Biden or whatever. Right. And so they know they can do anything they want and they're going to be protected. And that's what's scary. And there's many people that don't even know about food shortages again because, well, I guess they probably do. I don't know. A lot of people don't know about them.

No, I mean. And I don't think people are being prepared. So maybe they do know about them, but they're not getting prepared like they did. Like you said, with YK. Y2K, yeah. No, I don't know. I mean, nobody's getting prepared. Some people are.

I mean, I'm hearing some people are. And, you know. But it is really happening. And like, seriously, when we go to our own grocery store, we don't have chicken. But what I think, if anything, if this is food shortage, just going to be created, I think it's going to be created. I think it's going to be because the government wants you to also depend on them for food or not. And they're going to use it.

You know, they're going to use whether you get food or not on whether you do this or that. I mean, literally, if you already look at what's happening with the vaccination, look, I'm neither for or against the vaccination. I'm for everybody's right to choose to get vaccinated or not. If you're vaccinated, you should be protected. If you're not, then that's your decision. And if you're not vaccinated, then the people that are vaccinated should be protected from you. They shouldn't care. They shouldn't care.

And no one should care. It makes zero sense, right? But the same way they're using the vaccination to, you know, the same way they're using the vaccination to dictate to people what they can and can't do now, especially in these big cities, New York, Chicago, California, if you don't have a vaccination card, then you can't go out, you can't eat, you can't do this, you can't do that. And it's going to get really bad to the point of, you know, how far are they going to take that?

And then so you've got to think, like, well, if they could get rid of food and have food shortages and then make the government depend, make the people depend on the government for food now, then they can say, well, you either do this or you're not getting food. You're not getting food. Yeah. And you really got you. And there are countries that do that. I mean, they have you by the balls and they have you by your starvation or not.

I mean, that's, and right now it sounds crazy to say that, but really it sounded crazy to think that you were either getting this vaccination or not and you weren't going to be able to do things or not. You weren't going to be able to go here. You might get fired for your job or. I mean, it's, you know, the things that are happening and have happened over the past year has escalated very quickly. And, you know, a lot of the things we kind of knew would probably happen, and they are. So just wanted to come on and make sure you guys were fully aware that there is a food shortage coming, I believe. And, you know, food shortage is just one of the problems that's coming.

I mean, we have a, we've had a ton of problems. And, you know, one of the things I did last week was delete everything. news channel I have on social media and really I want to just delete social media and and what we really want to do is I've been saying this is create a social platform for for like-minded people to prepare or to get ready for you know anything and just you know people that care about truth and people that care about you know being able to sustain yourself in case you don't have something those are all the things we should all be thinking about humans because if you're a United States citizen or if you're not, if you believe in God or whatever,

you know, the United States Constitution was created because it protected the people from the government interfering with their God-given rights. Our rights don't come from the government. Our rights come from God, and that's what the Constitution was enacted for. It enacted it to say that no government should ever impede on people's rights because the rights were not given to them by the government. They were given to them by God. And I think God gives everybody their rights. no government should give anybody rights. Government is there for the people, not the people there for the government. You know what I mean?

And so that's the biggest problem we're having right now, and especially in the United States. It's becoming to where the United States is authoritarian. They're starting to say, you can and can and can't do this, and you can and can't do that, and you can and can't do this. And, oh, no, we don't work for you.

You work for us, you know. And that's getting really scary. And so just, guys, be prepared. You know, start thinking of things that you can do to prepare. And I am going to write an article on this and kind of give some ideas on some of the things you guys can be doing and thinking about. If any of you guys have tips or what you're

doing and some of the ways you're preparing, definitely email us, contact us, contact and investigateearth.com or investigateearthpodcast.com. Sorry, I got to get it right. Contact and investigateearthpodcast.com. And we'd love to hear it. See what you guys are doing or preparing and see what your

thoughts are on everything. And listen, on a lighter note, I did read that you probably should start shopping for Christmas now instead of waiting until December because they're not going to be all out. They're not going to have anything in December. So just let you know. Well, yeah. Well, we'll see if we're still in the pandemic, but we probably will be. All right, guys.

Well, this has been another Investigator Earth podcast episode and Primal Survival podcast episode. We're going to do it on both. But we love all of you guys. Thanks for listen. And we'll be back very soon. Have a good one. Golden, I'll follow me golden.
