#3 More like, Paleos meet Bedouins. Though the Paleos outnumber the Bedouins, the Bedouins generally take no shiat from the Paleos, most of whom aren't even citizens.

So, if these are Bedouins protesting, it's one thing. If it is Paleos, dollars for donuts there is going to be a crackdown.

#5 The wheat crop here in Kansas in under intense stress. Only 29% looks good, zero looks excellent, the rest is poor or dead. Look for prices to continue to go upwards with the added cost of fuel and petro based fertilizer and the decrease in bushels per acre.

#6 The next few years of cold and flood/drought in this weather cycle will bring massive food riots, upheaval and starvation.

Instead of the stupid Global Bulling effort, a better effort would have been made to make the most of the 7 good years and plan on the 7 lean years.

#7 "a better effort would have been made to make the most of the 7 good years and plan on the 7 lean years"

Better but unlikely, Darth. Such a thing would require our ~~"betters"~~ "leaders" to (a) have actually read the Bible and (b) admit it in public.

Can't have that....

#8 Yes, 7 lean years - could be devastating to the nancy state of the planet.
Especially with all the unfaithful.

#9 If it is the Paleos, they should remember the Black September of 1970 - the Bedouins will support the King, and his daddy showed how it was done.
