(WND)—There is a perverse phenomenon taking place in America. As the nation crumbles, a significant number of the population engages in the chaos by committing acts of depravity that seem to be violence for the sake of violence. These criminal acts are not driven by greed or desperation or the need to survive. The perpetrators seem to delight in their violence, and give particular attention to inflicting as much suffering upon their victims as is possible.
What has changed in America? Many victims of crime would come home from work to find their television set grew legs and walked out of the home. Once upon a time the criminal either needed a new TV, or the cash to buy more drugs. Today, it is not uncommon to find the entire house trashed. Destruction for the sake of destruction. The 80-year-old lady navigating her walker down the sidewalk probably is not carrying a lot of cash when she is knocked down and beaten to death. Often the video captures the joy on the faces of the murderers. These people seem to enjoy the killing. Deviate sexual crimes are a daily staple of crime reporting, and Frankenstein surgery is practiced in the nation’s hospitals.
Society cannot survive this daily diet of Charles Manson-style bloodshed.
What changed to create mass societal suicide? Marxists have been verbally abusing personal freedom and free enterprise for more than a century. In Los Angeles after World War II, UCLA was often referred to as the “little red schoolhouse.” That never changed, but the Marxist propaganda is now the position of the national government, sways both major national political parties and dominates nations on all continents. Down south, way south, Argentina just said “no mas.”
Americans are told daily their nation was founded by evil people, always has done evil things, and so Western civilization, particularly Christianity, must be destroyed. It seems logical to assume some people will be influenced enough to lash out at their perceived oppressors.
Add to the mix the fact that an extraordinary number of Americans have voluntarily engaged in self-destructive drug abuse. At the beginning of the 1960s, the homeless population had a problem with alcohol consumption. Then marijuana was added, and now we are flooded with synthetic drugs and life destroyers. Somewhere, some time along that journey, the individual may decide nothing is his fault, society has failed him, and then he becomes violent.
It also is logical to be concerned that those who eject the idea of the United States of America might also gravitate to a new world order. The prevailing political outlook in this nation now characterizes everyone, not as a person, but part of a “community,” and that community also is oppressed by a corrupt society. There is a parallel demand government make repairs to fix its failures. The last place a person in this position should go to seek help is government – which cannot repair the roads, operate a profitable railroad, or even provide a basic education to the children.
Government’s response to the drug crisis has been to legalize it, go into the drug business itself to tax it, and abandon the nation’s borders to increase the population’s dependence upon drugs and government. If one wanted to grow government, is there a better way?
This leaves the responsible, working American angry at the government as he navigates the sidewalk excrement. Both the homeless sidewalk dweller and the beleaguered homeowner share an anger at our social condition. Added to that anger is the news of invaders from Africa, Asian, South and Central America all lined up for taxpayer-provided free housing, free food, free medical care and free education.
Imagine the riots when the free stuff is no longer provided.

So one side aligns the American middle class and the lower income folks who have had it up to here with government abuse pitted against the Ivy League graduates who also think nations and elections failed. Their solution is absolute power over a new world order run by them and their computers.
Last week the world leaders of tomorrow, the folks who intend to do away with nations and elections and eliminate half the population, bragged about their plans. The attendees at the World Economic Forum were giddy with enthusiasm. That is how confident these masters of the universe are about their own destiny. Why not? President Biden echoes their every word. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, fresh from his trashing of Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu, maintained his ardent enthusiasm for the WEF plotters. John Kerry was at Davos to save earth from humanity.
How do the plotters and the schemers plan to transition from nation states run by local citizens to a singular social, economic and political organization for the world?
Probably, the coup will come after a devastating world war. These plotters have that covered too. In case you missed it, Klaus Schwab called for Europe to go to war with Russia, using beleaguered Ukraine as the excuse.
Coffee the Christian way: Promised Grounds
Klaus Schwab makes Vladimir Putin look like Peter Rabbit. To those Americans who lived through the Cold War and appreciated President Ronald Reagan to bring it to a non-violent close, Schwab sounds very much like a mad man in search of an asylum.

Five Things New “Preppers” Forget When Getting Ready for Bad Times Ahead
The preparedness community is growing faster than it has in decades. Even during peak times such as Y2K, the economic downturn of 2008, and Covid, the vast majority of Americans made sure they had plenty of toilet paper but didn’t really stockpile anything else.
Things have changed. There’s a growing anxiety in this presidential election year that has prompted more Americans to get prepared for crazy events in the future. Some of it is being driven by fearmongers, but there are valid concerns with the economy, food supply, pharmaceuticals, the energy grid, and mass rioting that have pushed average Americans into “prepper” mode.
There are degrees of preparedness. One does not have to be a full-blown “doomsday prepper” living off-grid in a secure Montana bunker in order to be ahead of the curve. In many ways, preparedness isn’t about being able to perfectly handle every conceivable situation. It’s about being less dependent on government for as long as possible. Those who have proper “preps” will not be waiting for FEMA to distribute emergency supplies to the desperate masses.
Below are five things people new to preparedness (and sometimes even those with experience) often forget as they get ready. All five are common sense notions that do not rely on doomsday in order to be useful. It may be nice to own a tank during the apocalypse but there’s not much you can do with it until things get really crazy. The recommendations below can have places in the lives of average Americans whether doomsday comes or not.

Secured Wealth
Whether in the bank or held in a retirement account, most Americans feel that their life’s savings is relatively secure. At least they did until the last couple of years when de-banking, geopolitical turmoil, and the threat of Central Bank Digital Currencies reared their ugly heads.
It behooves Americans to diversify their holdings. If there’s a triggering event or series of events that cripple the financial systems or devalue the U.S. Dollar, wealth can evaporate quickly. To hedge against potential turmoil, many Americans are looking in two directions: Crypto and physical precious metals.
There are huge advantages to cryptocurrencies, but there are also inherent risks because “virtual” money can become challenging to spend. Add in the push by central banks and governments to regulate or even replace cryptocurrencies with their own versions they control and the risks amplify. There’s nothing wrong with cryptocurrencies today but things can change rapidly.
As for physical precious metals, many Americans pay cash to keep plenty on hand in their safe. Rolling over or transferring retirement accounts into self-directed IRAs is also a popular option, but there are caveats. It can often take weeks or even months to get the gold and silver shipped if the owner chooses to close their account. This is why Genesis Gold Group stands out. Their relationship with the depositories allows for rapid closure and shipping, often in less than 10 days from the time the account holder makes their move. This can come in handy if things appear to be heading south.
Lots of Potable Water
One of the biggest shocks that hit new preppers is understanding how much potable water they need in order to survive. Experts claim one gallon of water per person per day is necessary. Even the most conservative estimates put it at over half-a-gallon. That means that for a family of four, they’ll need around 120 gallons of water to survive for a month if the taps turn off and the stores empty out.
Being near a fresh water source, whether it’s a river, lake, or well, is a best practice among experienced preppers. It’s necessary to have a water filter as well, even if the taps are still working. Many refuse to drink tap water even when there is no emergency. Berkey was our previous favorite but they’re under attack from regulators so the Alexapure systems are solid replacements.
For those in the city or away from fresh water sources, storage is the best option. This can be challenging because proper water storage containers take up a lot of room and are difficult to move if the need arises. For “bug in” situations, having a larger container that stores hundreds or even thousands of gallons is better than stacking 1-5 gallon containers. Unfortunately, they won’t be easily transportable and they can cost a lot to install.
Water is critical. If chaos erupts and water infrastructure is compromised, having a large backup supply can be lifesaving.
Pharmaceuticals and Medical Supplies
There are multiple threats specific to the medical supply chain. With Chinese and Indian imports accounting for over 90% of pharmaceutical ingredients in the United States, deteriorating relations could make it impossible to get the medicines and antibiotics many of us need.
Stocking up many prescription medications can be hard. Doctors generally do not like to prescribe large batches of drugs even if they are shelf-stable for extended periods of time. It is a best practice to ask your doctor if they can prescribe a larger amount. Today, some are sympathetic to concerns about pharmacies running out or becoming inaccessible. Tell them your concerns. It’s worth a shot. The worst they can do is say no.
If your doctor is unwilling to help you stock up on medicines, then Jase Medical is a good alternative. Through telehealth, they can prescribe daily meds or antibiotics that are shipped to your door. As proponents of medical freedom, they empathize with those who want to have enough medical supplies on hand in case things go wrong.
Energy Sources
The vast majority of Americans are locked into the grid. This has proven to be a massive liability when the grid goes down. Unfortunately, there are no inexpensive remedies.
Those living off-grid had to either spend a lot of money or effort (or both) to get their alternative energy sources like solar set up. For those who do not want to go so far, it’s still a best practice to have backup power sources. Diesel generators and portable solar panels are the two most popular, and while they’re not inexpensive they are not out of reach of most Americans who are concerned about being without power for extended periods of time.
Natural gas is another necessity for many, but that’s far more challenging to replace. Having alternatives for heating and cooking that can be powered if gas and electric grids go down is important. Have a backup for items that require power such as manual can openers. If you’re stuck eating canned foods for a while and all you have is an electric opener, you’ll have problems.
Don’t Forget the Protein
When most think about “prepping,” they think about their food supply. More Americans are turning to gardening and homesteading as ways to produce their own food. Others are working with local farmers and ranchers to purchase directly from the sources. This is a good idea whether doomsday comes or not, but it’s particularly important if the food supply chain is broken.
Most grocery stores have about one to two weeks worth of food, as do most American households. Grocers rely heavily on truckers to receive their ongoing shipments. In a crisis, the current process can fail. It behooves Americans for multiple reasons to localize their food purchases as much as possible.
Long-term storage is another popular option. Canned foods, MREs, and freeze dried meals are selling out quickly even as prices rise. But one component that is conspicuously absent in shelf-stable food is high-quality protein. Most survival food companies offer low quality “protein buckets” or cans of meat, but they are often barely edible.
Prepper All-Naturals offers premium cuts of steak that have been cooked sous vide and freeze dried to give them a 25-year shelf life. They offer Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin among others.
Having buckets of beans and rice is a good start, but keeping a solid supply of high-quality protein isn’t just healthier. It can help a family maintain normalcy through crises.
Prepare Without Fear
With all the challenges we face as Americans today, it can be emotionally draining. Citizens are scared and there’s nothing irrational about their concerns. Being prepared and making lifestyle changes to secure necessities can go a long way toward overcoming the fears that plague us. We should hope and pray for the best but prepare for the worst. And if the worst does come, then knowing we did what we could to be ready for it will help us face those challenges with confidence.
