Prep Updates 01/21/13
Peter makes a pretty good point here. THE USPS is broke and the government can’t fix it, but we are supposed to believe our lawmakers can “fix” this fiscal hole we are in? The notion is hilarious at best.

Prepper Deals out on the Internet:
If you still need magazines I would encourage you to sign up for email updates on multiple website so that when they become available you can jump on it. Today I got an email notification that mags I had interest in where in stock at 44mag.com. Over 200 mags were gone in about 3 hours! Even JWR suggests buying as many mags as you can, even if you have to do so on a credit card. If a ban passes, it’s game over.
Current events and opinion:
What’s missing in U.S. gun control scramble? Bullets
PJ: Serial numbers on individual bullets? Not likely, at least I hope not. Would they also make bullet casting and reloading illegal?
Gas tax revenue down, officials eye mileage levy
PJ: Here’s how this goes. GPS monitoring device on your car which helps to levy a tax based on the amount of miles you drive because our broke government needs more ways to fleece its citizens. Another good idea fairy comes along and suggests that the system could be modified to monitor speed as well and electronically levy tickets based on location (if speed limit is exceeded). Proponents of this measure will say it’s for our safety, and of course: “If you aren’t doing anything wrong you should have nothing to worry about.”
Germany initiates massive gun registry, to barely a peep
PJ: People often say you have to register your car, why not submit to registering guns? I’ll tell you why, that’s because I don’t live in fear of someone trying to confiscate my car for the greater good. Additionally driving is a privilege and is not guaranteed in the Constitution. Germany can initiate a massive gun registry, but we’ll say no thanks to that every time here in the US.
Do Facebook ‘likes’ mean anything?
PJ: I’m all for a social network revolt. Additionally, do Facebook friends mean anything? Nope. I don’t have Facebook and keep in touch with the people I want to stay in touch with just fine. If you have a Facebook account I challenge you to delete it, I guarantee you will not receive ONE email/phone call from any of your “friends” begging you to come back.
WiseWay Pellet Stove is Non-Electric, EPA-Certified
PJ: I’ve been thinking about adding a Pellet Stove or Wood Stove to my home. This is an informative article over on Mother Earth News.
