EPISODE 334 – Capitol Riot Lessons
8 of 10
THIS WEEK'S TRANSCRIPT
top 5, 10, or even 20% of those who are trying to climb their way up the social ladder
by stepping on those beneath them.
I think we've all seen these same things when we look around us, right?
Now this process isn't exactly new. In fact, it's happened in roughly 50-year cycles
since 1780 according to Turchin - and there's evidence to that in our history books.
But that ALSO means that we're not through this yet.
AND, I would argue,... things have been accelerated due to the MASSIVE debt we're
currently piling on with an out-of-control pandemic... and the upcoming political divide
getting wider and wider.
Now, I'm not saying that there are going to be zombies climbing out of the ground to
chew your face off next week and I'm not recommending you look for blueprints in how
to transform your mini-van into a Mad Max mobile to survive the dusty wasteland.
All I'm saying is that there are some specific areas I feel you need to prepare for to
keep your family safe during tough - and potentially dangerous times.
One of the principles I talk a LOT about is the "50% Rule" I learned the hard way with a
natural disaster I went through in my little TX town that had a deadly flash flood carry
75 homes away in the middle of the night. In that flood, the waters were about 50%
higher than ever in our town's history and so people weren't prepared - and they died
because of it.
I used this same rule to predict your own threats at the very beginning of the pandemic
when it was predicted that we could see as many as 200,000 deaths - and so I said
that REALLY means 300,000 deaths for those of us who want to realistically prepare.
Well, we're now at 400,000!
So the same thing applies here... take a look at the WORST you've seen on the
news... and increase it by 50%. THAT is what you should be dealing with in your preps
to stay ahead of the curve.
SO... with this rosy picture I've just painted, let me give you some ideas for some areas
of preparedness that you may want to look at taking advantage of in the coming weeks
and months as a result of the storming of the Capitol and as things unfold...
