For days now, the news has been warning that Ukraine is the 4th largest grain producer in the world and because of the war, we are going to see and feel severe food shortages in our very near future. According to the dishonest NY Times (that prints all that is not fit to print, click here):
Russia and Ukraine together produce nearly a quarter of the world’s wheat, feeding billions of people in the form of bread, pasta and packaged foods. The countries are also key suppliers of barley, sunflower seed oil and corn, among other products.
So, I asked myself, if Ukraine and Russia are responsible for only 25% of the world’s wheat, who is supplying the other, bigger, larger, more abundant 75%? Here’s the true fact:
Turns out Russia is actually #3 and Ukraine is all the way down there on the bottom of the list as #9. We get most of our needed grain and wheat supplies from China and India. If there really is going to be a slowdown from either Russia or Ukraine, surely China and India as well as America (we’re #4), France, Australia, Canada, Pakistan and Germany can all pull together and cough up that lacking 25%. Makes common sense, doesn’t it? So why is the media frightening the living bejesus out of all of us threatening that there is going to be food shortages and we are all going to die of starvation????
Next up on the fear mongering list is corn. It is being pounded in to our brains that corn production, the food item most important to feed the cows, livestock, other animals, as well as people….corn-the most vital important ingredient in high fructose corn syrup (which we all know we DON’T need) will also be on the shortage list.
Really, guys?
Know who is the biggest producer of corn? We are! The good ole United States Of America.
Want to know where Ukraine sits on that list? Ukraine is Number Five (5). Give me a break!
The media is fully trying to scare us even more by telling us that Russia and Ukraine produce the largest fertilizer supplies on the planet. And without that fertilizer farmers have already decided they are not going to plant anything and just let their fields go to rot. Really? America is a capitalist society. If anyone sees an opportunity to make money and more money, don’t they hop on the bandwagon and get producing? When did Americans suddenly become stupid? (not counting those who voted for Uncle Joe)
Again, let’s look at the facts. Who are the largest producers of fertilizer on Planet Earth? Here are the numbers:
China is Numero Uno (Number One). The United States is Numero Duo (Number Two). Next comes India as Number Three (3). Russia comes in last of the top suppliers. Even if China doesn’t step up fertilizer production, the United States surely will. And so will India. That country wants to get into the world wide competition and they most assuredly will beef up fertilizer production.
I hate to break this news to you, Ladies and Gentlemen, but we all are being lied to. Over and over again. Daily, weekly, monthly, annually. I challenge you to do your own research. Go to a feed store or a garden center. See if they have any fertilizer. I betcha they do AND the price of it has risen due to the lamebrain excuses the media has been forcing down our throats. We’re all being manipulated and it’s a crying shame. The truth is none of us here in either America or Planet Earth need Russia or the Ukraine for anything. They’re non-players. Period.
Don’t get me started on Russian oil. We have more oil in the one state of Alaska that could supply the whole entire planet, and yet we don’t drill for fear of disrupting the great white polar bear. Our government is blocking almost all American drilling because it wants us to switch to all electric cars. But where does that electricity come from? Coal mines. And what has America done to coal mines? It shut them down. Meanwhile, as of this writing, China has built an additional 240 coal mines on their own land. Why is that? What kind of idiot are we? How stupid can America be?
China continues to add coal-fired power plants within its borders, bringing forty-one gigawatts of coal power on line in 2020 alone, which accounted for seventy-five percent of the global total. China, the top global coal miner, consumer and emitter, whose leader, President Xi Jinping, is not expected to attend COP26. More than 1,000 coal plants are in operation, almost 240 planned or already under construction.
America is not ready for a 100% electric American lifestyle. We all can’t go out and buy EVs now. First off, the power grid isn’t ready for us. Secondly, have you seen the price of these EV cars? A friend of mine just bought a Tesla for $62,000. Can you afford to spend money like that on an experimental vehicle? With the roar of inflation making us poorer and poorer with each passing day, how many people do you know, in their right mind, who can afford buying an EV right now? You’d have to take out an extensive, long loan AND you’d now have to pay a much higher interest rate. Who is going to jump in to this insanity?
It ain’t me, that’s for sure. And I’m certain it isn’t most of my readers either. We just can’t do it. And that’s going to be the wake up call to GM, Ford and of course, the non-union Tesla who President Biden ignores.
To all newscasters, social media outlets, bloggers, influencers, YouTube and Tik Tok stars: stop telling us that gas, food, energy and rent prices are higher and going higher. We know. We’re dealing with it. We don’t need YOU reminding us of it every.single.day. We get it. We have to change our ways in order to survive. We know what we can afford to give up and we know what we need to prioritize. We don’t need your stinking advice. And to those who are touting living back in the 1940’s, stop doling out advice that is over 80 years old! This isn’t the 1940s. And it’s not the 1970s either. It’s the year 2022 and we have a whole new ball of wax to deal with. Yes, we should study and learn from the old days but we also need to learn and understand the new horizon that waits for us in our near futures.
Our first step is to get all these progressive, unrealistic nincompoops out of our way. And we do that come November. That’s probably the best advice you heard all day.

Ciphers From Cindi 
Cindi, this was a good post. I wanted to let you know that what you said about our electrical power grid is spot on. My hubby works in this field and has been saying the same thing for the last several years. He is also concerned about our power grid being vulnerable. Keep preaching. Chris

I get what you’re saying but I think the concern is that China’s having a bad year and has basically come out to say they’ll take all of Russia’s exports to top them up. This disadvantages two big markets for Russian wheat: Turkey and Egypt. So, Turkey and Egypt are major producers of fresh produce for Europe and also other commodities, like natural gas for example. If there is food instability in these countries, that can knock into other economic and political spheres which the major western countries don’t want. So then there will be a push to divert,say, US wheat to that region… pushing up domestic U.S. prices. This info on past market suppliers comes from the US Dept of Agriculture from Trump’s presidency. I agree though that the newspapers don’t present the info very coherently. I’ve been thinking hey if wheat’s expensive well I can just eat beans or potatoes. Or we just make ourselves rye or spelt bread, all of which are grown locally for us. But what’s a company like Kellogg’s to do? They’re totally dependent on wheat. Glad this isn’t a problem I have to solve!

Dear Cindi
Hello from the UK and many thanks for your post. The table on wheat is very interesting. And has you say we, the world generally, are being lied to hand over fist. In German, lied means ‘song’, and interestingly, which I have only just checked, ‘leid’ (ie reversed) means suffering.
This all reminds me of ‘The song remains the same’ a film about Led Zeppelin. Perhaps it is because we are being ‘sung’ to, lied to, and suffering because ‘The song remains the same’, that is the ‘song’ from MSM is the same lies over and over again!!
As regards your question ‘When did Americans suddenly become stupid?’, well it has been happening slowly over a long period of time, in the current scheme of things about 150 years ago. It has accelerated in recent years of course.
Whilst I appreciate this does not seem directly applicable to this post, in essence it is as it helps explain some of the background of how we got here. It is my standard text on Covid 19 what it is and to an extent who is behind it all. It is adapted as required.
“I have had my fair share of vaccines, including polio I believe. I used to think vaccines were of some use until, at 60 years of age in 2020, I researched properly. I changed my mind.
Covid 19 is the ‘flu, dressed up as a monster to scare people, re-branded if you will. This helps big pharma etc, control the populace and make more money.
The ‘flu is the internal toxicosis of the body, mainly via urea, partly due to metabolism of food and partly due to the many poisons in our environment which can and do enter our bodies in the air, food and water. The ‘flu cannot be transmitted to someone else as it is individual to each person.
Unless your blood is given to someone in a blood transfusion, for example.
In essence urea is a neuro-toxin due to the nitrogen which the body may use up to a point but must ultimately excrete as is becomes ammonia which is highly toxic.
Injecting poisons such as via vaccines merely adds to the toxicosis problem. Vaccines have never been of any use, it is merely that constant and persistent ‘advertising’ persuaded people that they were of use. The various deaths and harm have been well-documented over the decades. It is being documented now.
Vitamin D deficiency is the true pandemic due to indoor working and living away from the sunshine which, if we do the right thing things, will give us vitamin D (free!). Big pharma etc. are not keen on free as they don’t make much money out of it.
Vitamin D levels drop in the winter months, depending on latitude, due to reduced sunshine levels and as any gains in the summer months are depleted.
Lack of vitamin D causes rickets among other things. Polio was merely rickets re branded again for big pharma to make money. The polio vaccine was pointless. A good dose of vitamin D such as was once given via cod liver oil in a spoon (a disgusting taste I understand). You can now get this in capsule form of course.
Vaccines are neuro-toxins, if there is anything in them at all, as are most big pharma drugs. The toxic drugs contain nitrogen and can be readily identified as a consequence if you know the chemistry. Therefore they are at best pointless, suppressing symptoms and not dealing with the real issue. Indeed, they usually merely add to the issues, hence the ever increasing cycle of drugs to treat side effects of drugs etc.
This ever increasing cycle is good for big pharma business not not for the human body.
If your immune system is in good order then by and large you will tolerate a poisonous vaccine. If weakened you will suffer various side effects. If your immune system is very poor you may die.
Boosting your immune system with vitamin D can go a long way to protecting you against the toxicosis, but vitamin C is very good as an anti-oxidant to help flush the toxins out of your system. By and large you should be able to gain your vitamins etc from good, untainted food. Highly processed foods will not help.
I have seen the statistics on Australia since February 2020. These show a close correlation between Covid cases and vaccination. It is abundantly clear the vaccines are causing the case numbers rise, as would be expected. Look at other statistics and you will no doubt see the same correlation.
Vaccine makers will say that correlation is not causation, although try telling that to those who fall ill immediately after the shot (or die!).
However, they use the same argument for justifying that vaccines do any good, that because people don’t fall ill or not so badly, it is the vaccines which have helped. This is a big lie. Lots of factors change over time and each person is an individual, not a herd.
I have done much on Covid 19 etc., here is my link to my summary. That gives access to the various other issues. I cover the statistics in the UK and USA and more recently those in Australia.

The following explains the media fear campaign.

A useful website on the deceit.
https://timefortruth.blog/2022/02/01/how-the-media-lies-about-covid/
Fear is a major problem in health. It should be noted that fear tends to ‘freeze’ the body’s immune system from functioning correctly and can stop people doing sensible things. Like avoiding having foreign bodies injected into their systems.
So when your soul or spirit is at peace your health will tend to be better. However, this does not mean you will avoid the side effects of chemical poisoning on your body if you don’t eat and drink cleanly.
And I wonder how many people would choose to have a vaccine if they had to pay for them directly rather than via their taxes (vaccination is not free)?
As regards vaccinated/unvaccinated I gather the goal posts keep changing so unvaccinated currently means not fully vaccinated in at least some countries. This means people who have had vaccines are lumped in with those who have not had recent vaccines. Therefore the people of the world are being duped into having something nasty put into their bodies.
Unless they like playing Russian roulette with their bodies of course. But then that is both sad and mad.
As regards reasons of variance of symptoms, if any, between those who are vaccinated the problem lies in not knowing what exactly in each vial; sadly people will sell nothing for something and the vial might contain only saline, it is impossible to tell without testing each vial.
Vaccines are causing the issues by and large nowadays and case numbers and deaths will rise as a consequence. I recommend avoiding vaccines like the plague.”
Please note I do use humour as necessary on posts and pages to lighten the mood and help make the points. I will use strong salty language if required. I am not PC.
So we are being lied to in numerous ways, even the situation in the Ukraine is deeply suspicious due to the tsunami of lies from MSM. I am drafting a post but using humour to try and expose what is really going on.
And before I forget, I have glanced at some of your other posts which I have appreciated. If I can, I will try and go back and read more closely. Anyway, thank you again.
Kind regards

Hi Alpha. I appreciate your comment, in all it’s detail. My brother died of Covid. Or at least, that is what the doctors told us. He died at the very beginning of the pandemic, before anyone knew what was going on or what was to be done. I personally, think the medical team killed him as they inserted a breathing tube down his throat much too early and he died because of that. NOT the covid.
I believe in science and I believe in the vaccines. I remember waiting, as a five year old, on line in kindergarten to get my sugar cube of the polio vaccine. In my life, I used to pneumonia quite frequently. It wasn’t until I got that vaccine that the bouts of pneumonia stopped. I’m also a big fan of vitamins as I swear by Vitamin B12, C and D3. I take them religiously every day. As for the winter, I’ve been in Florida every season since I was 6 years old. I’m now 71. I believe in the power of sunshine.
I don’t know what the answer or solution is to any of this. I say, follow your gut. It will never fail you.
As for stupid Americans, I blame the schools for that one. They have taught our children nothing. Absolutely nothing.
Again, thank you for your informative comment. I appreciate it.

There are so many aspects to food problems. This is what I am understanding from farmers.
The fertilizer was a problem long before the war. China had a terrible wheat crop last year and Russia’s crop was too wet. Both decided early in the year to not export their fertilizer for the coming season. They were keeping it for their own fields.
Subsequently China’s winter wheat crop failed in many parts of the country, causing them to buy sub par wheat from Russia to stockpile for the summer needs.
Corn also needs the fertilizer, but pesticides is a further issue. With the looming Round Up debacle-parent company chose not to produce as much pesticide. That is driving farmers to look oversea for the products – and Ukraine has the chemical factories that produces what is needed. Hummmm
I do know that my BFF in Kansas and my son in law are both planting cover crops instead of hay, wheat or corn this year. They are planting to feed their hearts- but that is it.
My BFF said that Kansas was having a hard time finding seed corn because Bill Gates had cornered the market and was not selling anything but GMO seed.
Now add that the price of plowing a field has doubled with the price of diesel…..
My understanding is that we are still eating last year’s grain. The prices are rising because of supply demand- but in the fall they will rise because of actual shortages.
Other shortages—I am not sure what the issue is….
As for American’s being stupid. I do not agree. My kid’s generation is amazing. I just think that loads of 80 year old people ,with no actual skin in the game, should not be ruling (not leading) a country like ours….
Great to hear what you are thinking about Cindi. Hope this alleviates a bit of the mystery why, as far as food goes, it could be a very long winter of 22-23.

If Bill Gates will only sell GMO, then plant the darn thing. It’s up to the buyers not the sellers. Buyers rule the markets.
As for stupid Americans, last I counted there were 80 million of them.
Pelosi is 82 years old. I’ll say no more.
If everything is expensive and if everything is going to be priced higher, as long as there are people who will pay, what’s the problem? It’s all relative. People will pay for wheat and so will the big corporations.
I live in rural America. I live in farmland. My hometown area can provide whatever it is we will need. Yes, I’ll have to pay. Or barter. That’s big out here.
Thanks for your comment.
