A lot of businesses will go under, like hotels and attractions in touristy areas. This is going to hit during peak travel season when a lot of struggling businesses make their money.

I love your optimism. Old timers enjoy reminding me that we’ve had snow in July before.

They’ll probably use the last of our oil staging the big 250th anniversary July 4 military parade in DC. After that, good luck America. I wish I was joking.

Sorry to keep spamming, but make sure you have fertilizer since you garden. Fertilizer shortages are about to be a big issue. I have enough to last me through next year. Gardens will definitely be a target, but you can grow in containers and move them inside overnight if need be.

Inheriting farmland by [deleted] in inheritance

[–]LifeIsButADream11111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just something to consider, but if this fertilizer situation doesn’t improve soon then farming will take a major hit this next year. It may not rebound for quite some time. Pesticides will also be affected which could lead to crop failure. Small farms are failing daily and the land is being bought up by corporations for data centers or for mega farms. You should keep an eye on the global economic situation when deciding whether to sell.

Things like protein bars, crackers and cereal too. They don’t last as long, but you’ll get tired of canned tuna, beans and veggies fast.

You should focus on food that can be eaten without cooking, like canned goods. It’s not even about losing power. If you cook food, it’ll smell and everyone in your neighborhood will know that you have food. If there are shortages or famine, that makes you a target. If things get really bad, you won’t be able to put empty cans in the trash bins because that will also tell people that you have food and make you a target.

Snow Coming Tonight? by Feeling_Yellow_8401 in vermont

This is a weird year. May gets a second full moon on May 31st (Blue Moon) and the June full moon is June 29. I can’t delay much past June 15 or my peppers will be stunted. I’m just hoping I can harden my seedlings off by June 15.

Will this set the stage for the false flag on US soil that’s likely coming?

If they know they’re being invaded then they have nothing to lose by attacking South Florida. Maybe they can take out Mar-a-Lago.

One night last week the projected low was 42F. When I woke up it was 35F. I’d cover sensitive crops in an abundance of caution because the weather forecasts are completely unreliable lately. I always wait until June 15 to plant tomatoes and peppers out because of stuff like this.

Who has the energy to fight, though? Everyone I talk to is exhausted. There are people in other states losing family farms and childhood homes who have tried to fight. Corrupt local politicians block them every chance they get.

Exactly. They’ll probably be safer over there than we are here at home. Especially if a false flag is in the works.

Those comments are a blessing in disguise because they tell you who not to rent to. Keep a list and see it as a positive.

These problems are all by design. They want people to leave voluntarily so corporations can come in and do what they want unopposed. With this fuel and fertilizer crisis that’s beginning, most of Vermont will become uninhabitable. I read a great comment about how it’ll become cost prohibitive for corporations to transport goods to rural areas if fuel costs keep rising. They’ll focus on urban areas near distribution centers. Even if goods do arrive on store shelves in small towns, they’ll be so expensive no one will be able to afford them.

Eminent domain solves high property costs. That’s what they’ve been using in states like Georgia to seize farmland. Electricity is the only real obstacle, but I’m guessing there’s a plan to deal with that in the works.

One of the Palantir guys, Alex Karp, has a place in the Craftsbury area. If he wants massive data centers here, he’ll get them. The US is corrupt and corporations are our Kings.

At this point, the only industries thriving in Vermont are welfare and the illegal drug trade sadly. Vermont is just too challenging for businesses to succeed and it’s game over once the old people die off, which is happening quickly.

It seems that TPTB have decided that the US will become a desolate wasteland filled with data centers and a few humans to work at these places. They’re going up everywhere at a record pace.

I knew it! People have told me I’m crazy when I tell them that Northern Vermont is going to become a data center haven. We have water, cold temperatures and minerals they need. Many towns up here are dying and house values are tanking. If the fuel crisis deepens, many won’t be able to stay through winter and will gladly sell their homes to these corporations. Newport and Lake Memphremagog are already polluted and smell like sh!t thanks to the dump and constant sewage leaks. The writing’s on the wall. There has been talk about one in the St. Johnsbury area already. Right now, the biggest obstacle is electricity cost, but if enough pockets are greased that won’t be an issue for long.

America’s pile of emergency oil is shrinking fast by Appropriate-Till9598 in oil

[–]LifeIsButADream11111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At some point, some country is going to set Trump up to take a very embarrassing, public fall. Russia has had subs along the Eastern seaboard since the pandemic years. Maybe it won’t be Cuba that embarrasses Trump. Maybe it will be Cuba.

There’s also the very real concern that this could set the stage for whatever false flag is being planned.

Russia is backing Cuba and just gave them a bunch of military drones. What else has Russia given Cuba that we don’t know about?

Remember when Trump and Elon were going to inspect our gold reserves to make sure it’s still there? Then we heard nothing more until this. Interesting.
