Chapter One

Are we there yet?

Preparedness guidelines that have remained unchanged for decades are now obsolete. Those who fail to change with the new paradigm will find their resources grossly inadequate to meet the needs of a drastically altered game plan. The world is a different place than it was 30 years ago. Current scenarios that remove our support infrastructure, for much longer than previously anticipated, are now more likely than ever. Today, even veterans of preparedness are finding themselves students again. We all have a lot of work to do.

Is America on the brink of disaster? Could we wake up one day to find our world suddenly and dramatically changed? Many knowledgeable authorities think so. Watch the news stories, both domestic and foreign, regarding American business, unemployment, health, government and threats that might affect the quality of life we have grown to expect in this country. They point to a universal belief that America is not healthy and is headed for serious trouble. Here are some of those headlines:

Telegraph.UK By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard Published: 6:35PM GMT 10 Jan 2010 America slides deeper into depression as Wall Street revels December was the worst month for US unemployment since the Great Recession began.

Thomas Ferraro WASHINGTON Tue Dec 22, 2009 6:19pm EST Senate sets Christmas eve vote on U.S. debt limit WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Senate on Tuesday set a Christmas Eve vote on final congressional approval of a bill to provide a two-month increase in the federal debt limit.

Updated January 20, 2010AP Senate Democrats Propose $1.9T Increase to U.S. Debt Limit WASHINGTON - Senate Democrats on Wednesday proposed allowing the federal government to borrow an additional $1.9 trillion to pay its bills, a record increase that would permit the national debt to reach $14.3 trillion.

Breaking from Moneynews.com Foreigners Dropping Treasury Securities at Record Rate A record drop in foreign holdings of U.S. Treasury bills in December sent a reminder that the government might have to pay higher interest rates on its debt to continue to attract investors.

Thursday, 18 Feb 2010 | 8:39 AM ET By: Reuters Jobless Claims, Inflation Jump as Economy Wobbles The number of U.S. workers filing new applications for unemployment insurance unexpectedly surged last week, while producer prices increased sharply in January, raising potential hurdles for the economic recovery.

Updated December 24, 2009 AP

Senate Votes to Raise Debt Ceiling to $12.4 Trillion The Senate's rare Christmas Eve vote allows the Treasury Department to issue enough bonds to fund the government's operations and programs until mid-February.

Published: January 20 2010 16:46 | Last updated: January 20 2010 16:46 By Peter Garnham Russia diversifies into Canadian dollars (and away from US dollars) Russia's central bank announced on Wednesday that it had started buying Canadian dollars and securities in a bid to diversify its foreign exchange reserves. (They are diversifying away from US currency)

FOXNews.com Obama Shatters Spending Record for First-Year Presidents The federal government spent $3.5 trillion during President Obama's first year in office. This far exceeds the spending for any other first-year president.

The New York Times | 23 Nov 2009 | 06:29 AM ET Wave of Debt Payments Facing US Government The United States government is financing its more than trillion-dollar-a-year borrowing with i.o.u.'s on terms that seem too good to be true. But that happy situation, aided by ultralow interest rates, may not last much longer.

AP Unemployment Report Expected to Be Grim When the Labor Department releases the January unemployment report Friday, it will also update its estimate of jobs lost in the year that ended in March 2009. The number is expected to rise by roughly 800,000, raising the number of jobs shed during the recession to around 8 million.

Thursday, December 03, 2009 Maryland Reports First Drug Resistant H1N1 Cases BALTIMORE — Maryland health officials are reporting the state's first two known cases of swine flu resistant to Tamiflu.

Below is a chart showing the recent growth in the number of unemployed people who have not found work after six months of searching. These have exhausted their unemployment resources. News stories listing a decrease in claims for unemployment will show this data in a positive light but keep in mind, the people represented by this chart are still unemployed and they have exhausted their eligibility to make further claims.

There are many more articles and data supporting these alarming facts. I stopped collecting because supporting articles are in the paper every day. Nearly 5% of our civilian workforce has been unemployed for over twenty-six weeks. Were it not for federal extensions, our front page headlines would read like those of the great depression. The same articles that hail the end of recession, include comments that unemployment and home foreclosures may continue to increase. Who is the media trying to kid?

If there was ever an opportune time for adversity, America is in it. Our economy is on the verge of collapse from the weight of its own debt. Terrorists are actively planning attacks on American soil. We are ripe for a medically resistant epidemic. Acts of nature can shut down regions of our country for long periods of time and if that's not enough, any one of us could lose our job and face extended unemployment.

Fox News recently reported that 79% of Americans believe our country is headed for economic failure and that our government officials do not have remedy to avoid it. International experts have been saying this for years. We aren't so powerful that it can't happen to us. It happened to the USSR and they charted for us what we could expect. Overnight their money became worthless and the only thing of value was food and water. It took the emerging nine Baltic States an average of six months to develop a temporary script to serve as money. Real money, that could be exchanged for other currency of the world, took five years to be established.

Terrorism in our own country is now routine. Attempts to create mass carnage are being discovered in advanced planning stages. Many of us wonder when the next attempt will be successful.

The Pacific Northwest is expecting a massive earthquake from the two geological plates beneath them. These tectonic plates have been jammed for decades and building energy as they literally elevate a mountain range. When it lets go, there...
