Few announcements:
- Todd Sepulveda from The Prepper Website has recently launched his own podcast – The Prepper Website Podcast. Todd has come up with a great idea in that he reads and creates audible versions of many of the articles he links to on his website. This is perfect for those of us that take advantage of driving time to listen to audiobooks and podcasts. He featured my article – Stocking Up For Type-1 Diabetes in Episode 12. Check it out.
- Mark Goodwin has released his latest book – The Days of Elijah, Book Two: Wormwood. I love this series and will grab the audio version after I finish my current selection.
- I’ve got a lot of reading to do!! The Survivalist, Book 9 – has come out. One of my absolute favorite series The Survivalist is incredibly fun to read – or listen to in audio format.
- I’ve got a special project coming up……stay tuned!!

There is news coming out that Trump is going to cut funding to the United Nations. Of course, people are freaking out as the UN helps the poor and unfortunate across the globe. As a country we are in a fiscal mess and spending MUST be reduced. This would be a step in the right direction.

NOTE: If you see a free preparedness eBook that you’re interested in get it now. Prices change often and there is no way to tell how long the book will remain free. Before purchasing a free Kindle book on Amazon make certain the book is still free by making sure the price is $0.00. If it lists a price or says “read for free” or has a price for prime members the book is not free anymore.
STOP funding the UN all together and stop foreign aid. We can’t afford to pay what we owe our Legal Citizens, why are we sending anything to outside of the US?
“The United States is assessed for the regular budget at the ceiling rate of 22 percent, which in 2006 was $423,464,855 of the total $1,924,840,250. This works out to be a contribution of about $1.42 per American citizen, according to 2006 census data.”

Now, to make you even sicker, here are some interesting statistics from CNS News:
“–More than half the U.N.’s membership will be assessed less than $1 million each for both budgets (compared to $3.024 billion for the U.S. alone).
–The 119 members of the Non-Aligned Movement together will account for around $490 million (compared to $3.024 billion for the U.S. alone).
–The 56 countries of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) – which include 10 of the world’s 20 top oil-producing nations – will together contribute around $360 million (compared to $3.024 billion for the U.S. alone).
–The other four permanent members of the U.N. Security Council – Russia, China, Britain and France – will together account for around $2.523 billion (compared to $3.024 billion for the U.S. alone).
Schaefer told the committee he believed it was in the interests of the U.S. to have an effective United Nations, but to be useful the U.N. must be competent, efficient, transparent, accountable, and must hold employees to the highest standards of conduct.
“Unfortunately, the current organization falls short.”
The US should reduce the amount of the assessment to no more than that of the other permanent members of the UN Security Council. If the UN complains, then give them 24 hours to cease operations in New York and 72 hours to leave the US.
Of course their freaking out. All the crooked people relying on our(stolen) money would cause their countries to start facing economic depressions. Not to mention their global agenda and the loss of political (bully) power.
Voted your site and got a good chuckle out of the video :o)
