The United States, Hitler’s Germany, Stalin’s Russia, North Korea, China, Myanmar and Cuba all allow or have allowed indefinite detention of its citizens. That’s right, I included the United States in that list.

With the passage and signing of the National Defense Authorization Act, the United States now allows indefinite detention of American citizens. Even though the current administration says it won’t do that. Oh really? All we have to do is look a history and we can see that has not been the case.

Not Hitler, not the Communist Soviet Union, not Hitler’s Germany, not China, not North Korea, not Myanmar, not even Cuba had the bravado to put down their indefinite detention policy on paper and sign it into law. They just did it. But not here in the United States. We are the ones that “just want to be safe from terrorists”, even it costs us every last freedom we’ve got.

People don’t even seem to be minding the pervasive mission creep of the Department of Homeland Security into every aspect of our lives. A of people say:

I bring these things up because you need to see that this is not America anymore. We still have the illusion of America, but the principles that this country was founded on are quickly being lost. The beacon of liberty that has always been the United States is about to go out.

I suggest that you make emergency preparations for your family. Make an emergency preparedness plan and start implementing it. Store some food and water. If you are worried about what the neighbors will say, then keep your mouth shut. You only open yourself up to ridicule when you tell everyone what you are doing. Learn how to keep a secret.

Do it now while you still have time.

If you think your family can’t survive a food shortage, then please continue reading.

Natural disasters are increasing both in frequency and intensity. It is crucial to consider all the types of disasters and their locations when you are putting together an emergency preparedness plan.

The graph below shows the number of disasters drastically increasing over the last half century. In 2010, there were over 900 major disasters worldwide. And global disasters will probably over 1000 for 2011.

The following map shows the US counties that declared natural disasters through September 30, 2011. Notice that it’s practically the entire US.

Now, you have seen that natural disasters are increasing and you are thinking about forming an emergency preparedness plan. When it comes to emergency food, what type should you store?

The best solution for long term emergency food storage is a supply of nutritious, good tasting Freeze Dried Food. Freeze Dried foods rehydrate faster than any other type of foods, and they require little or no cooking and save valuable fuel and water.

Freeze Dried Foods store longer, are nutritiously superior to other types, and taste better than any other food available for long term food storage. In addition, freeze dried foods typically have a storage life of decades, 25 years plus! Actually, they gave been proven by government testing to store with a high degree of nutritional value for over 30 years. Imagine that.

Freeze Dried foods can be used as an emergency food supply for any major disaster or emergency, whether natural or man-made. These foods are enjoyed by leaders at the highest levels of government, Congress, the Cabinet and above, senior members of the U.S. Military, and the astronauts.

This is not the same as your father’s and grandfather’s old dried stuff from WWII, Korea or even Vietnam. There have been considerable advances in food preservation technology since the 1960s. Freeze Dried Food is comparable to or superior to the best fresh frozen foods, but without the need for refrigeration or rotation.

Freeze Dried Survival Food is your best choice.

Photo: Wikipedia Commons An acre of farmland is lost every minute in America

Every day the world population grows. When it comes to feeding all those people, a common idea is to just grow more food. However, it is not as easy as that. Now, I do not agree with the idea that there are too many people in the world. However, there are tremendous pressures being put on the world’s food supply.

Growing more food sounds like a good idea, but industrial farming over the last 40 years hasn’t proved that to be the case. Yes, advances in agriculture have increased crop yields per acre. But, those greater yields are offset by the fact that farmland is being lost in the United States at an ever-increasing rate.

On average, we lose one acre of U.S. farmland every minute. Most of this loss is due to the conversion of land from farms to industrial and residential uses. Between 2002 and 2007, 4,080,300 acres of farmland were converted for development. This is roughly the area of Massachusetts and is just part of a long-term trend.

Over the past 25 years, every state in the country has suffered a net loss of farmland. The biggest losers are Texas (1.5 million acres), Ohio (796,000 acres), North Carolina (766,000 acres), California
(616,000 acres), and Georgia (566,000 acres).

We could use more land for food, but we are also going to need more land for everything. Right now, industrial and residential development is winning out. Remember those 219,000 new people coming over for dinner tomorrow? And the next day? And the next day? Demands for land use is coming from every area, not just from the farmers. The pressures on land management will increase to a level never seen before.

The average American eats approximately 2,000 pounds of food per year. With all things considered, having an emergency food supply just makes sense.

          Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise! It has no commander, no overseer
          or ruler, yet it stores its provision in summer and gathers its food at harvest (Proverbs 6:6-8)
