20. It's all coming to an end....

Nov 2012

The era of cheap gasoline, big box stores and urban sprawl... it's all coming to an end.

The number one career for the next 20 years.. are you ready? Farmer.. food producer.

We are headed to a scaled-down, basic society, where food and drinking water will be the primary concerns.

So go ahead and tweet and text on face book, because when the electric grid fails.. none of that nonsense will work.

Your I-phones are going to be useless.. your ability to grow vegetables Will be worth much more.

Our infrastructure has been allowed to decay for so long... we may never recover. We have squandered BILLIONS on useless wars we have no business being involved in.

We are wasting BILLIONS on foreign aid and the war on terror.
