Scurvy is a devastating disease caused by not enough vitamin C in your body. While it’s often associated with pirates and seafarers from long ago, the disease is making a comeback in the modern day, even in developed countries where, theoretically, scurvy should no longer exist
Scurvy, a condition caused by vitamin C deficiency, is often associated with pirates and sailors of times gone by. If you stop consuming vitamin C, this water-soluble vitamin will be depleted in your body within four to 12 weeks. So those spending long periods at sea — without access to fresh fruits and vegetables where vitamin C is naturally found — often ended up suffering.
Scurvy was first reported in 1550 BC, and even Hippocrates described it, calling the disease “ileos ematitis” and noting, “the mouth feels bad; the gums are detached from the teeth; blood runs from the nostrils … ulcerations on the legs; some of these heal … skin is thin.”[i]
From the 15th to the 18th centuries, it’s estimated that 2 million seamen died of scurvy while attempting to cross the Atlantic, Indian or Pacific Oceans. Often, the disease was mingled with symptoms caused by other nutritional diseases, such as beriberi (vitamin B1 deficiency) and pellagra (vitamin B3 deficiency).[ii]
Today, “Scurvy is perceived as a disease irrelevant to the developed world,” Canadian researchers wrote in the Journal of General Internal Medicine.[iii] Yet, it’s still affecting people in the modern day.
Canadians Still Being Diagnosed With Scurvy
Scurvy should be a “never event” in the 21st century, when it’s known that this condition can be easily prevented with adequate intake of vitamin C. Despite this, a case report of hospital patients in Hamilton, Ontario, from 2009 to 2017, found 52 people had vitamin C levels low enough to cause scurvy.[iv]
Among them, only 13 had evidence of scurvy documented in their hospital charts, however, which suggests the condition may be going unnoticed. The most common symptoms documented among the modern-day scurvy patients were easy bruising, gingival bleeding and perifollicular hemorrhages.
Because vitamin C is widely available, scurvy in the modern day is typically the result of alcohol or drug abuse, poor dietary intake or living conditions that prevent proper nourishment.
In the featured study, two scurvy cases were related to alcohol use disorder, three to bariatric surgery, which can interfere with proper nutrient intake and absorption, and seven to other causes of malnutrition, including persistent nausea and vomiting, purposeful dietary restrictions, mental illness, social isolation and dependence on others for access to food.
“That it [scurvy] still occurs in Canada in our time indicates that we are not supporting vulnerable people as we should,” study author Kayla Dadgar said in a news release.[v] In an extraordinary case, scurvy has even been found in a person with an allergy to vitamin C, who deliberately avoided vitamin-C-rich foods and instead relied on a strict fast food diet.[vi]
Fortunately, scurvy is easy to treat with vitamin C supplementation, and all the patients who received such supplements had a rapid recovery. Further, according to the Journal of General Internal Medicine study, “One patient was able to walk within 24 h[ours] of vitamin C administration despite having previously been bedbound for weeks.”[vii]
Up to 14% of US Adults May Be Vitamin-C Deficient
While scurvy is uncommon, it still very much exists in the developed world, even in the presence of widespread availability of vitamin-C-rich foods, fortified foods and vitamin C supplements. In fact, it’s estimated that up to 14% of Americans may be deficient in vitamin C,[viii] with rates reaching up to 73.9% in north India.[ix]
According to some experts, scurvy may even be an “unrecognized and emerging public health issue in developed economies.”[x] In a five-year period in Springfield, Massachusetts, for instance, doctors tested about 120 patients’ vitamin C levels and found 29 had levels low enough to be diagnosed with scurvy.[xi]
Clinically speaking, vitamin C deficiency is described as a serum concentration of less than 11.4 umol/L. Your body can store only 1,500 milligrams (mg) of vitamin C, and deficiency may occur when levels reach less than 350 mg. Risk factors include:[xii]
Alcoholism Smoking Low income or inability to afford fruits and vegetables Eating disorders Type 1 diabetes, which has high vitamin C requirements Inflammatory bowel disease and other disorders of the gastrointestinal tract Food allergies or restrictive diets Iron overload, which leads to wasting of vitamin C by the kidneys
Vitamin C Supports Your Immune System and More
If there were any doubt as to the importance of vitamin C for your body’s function, consider Jonathan Lamb’s description of this “nightmare disease” in an interview with National Geographic. Lamb, who wrote “Scurvy: The Disease of Discovery,” explains:
“The main physical symptom of scurvy is the disintegration of the body. The skin begins to break. It starts with little blood blisters and develops into full-scale ulcers. The gums begin to putrefy and become black. Bones that had previously broken rebreak. Old wounds open up. This is because one of the major effects of scurvy is that the body can no longer produce collagen, the glue of the body’s cells. The cartilage, especially around the thorax, begins to disappear.”[xiii]
Those are the symptoms on the outside, but on the inside, the ravages are equally appalling. “In terms of the insides, the hydraulics, what happened was that the arteries and capillaries began to decay,” Lamb said. “Blood began to leak into the muscle and coagulated inside arteries, causing terrible cardiovascular damage. The effect of this on the brain was that you could have seizures or aneurisms at any moment.”[xiv]
Mental symptoms, including hallucinations, also occur, due to the disintegration of the brain’s nervous structure.[xv] There are more than 900 abstracts related to vitamin C research in our GreenMedInfo.com database, focusing on some of the most important roles that vitamin C plays in human health, like providing antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and chemopreventive properties.
Researchers are still uncovering more about this crucial vitamin as well, like a 2019 study that found a 16.5% lower mortality rate among septic patients given intravenous vitamin C.[xvi] Importantly, vitamin C is also essential for immune function, supporting both your innate and adaptive immune system. It’s known to both prevent and treat respiratory and systemic infections, likely including coronavirus.
As noted in the journal Nutrients, “Prophylactic prevention of infection requires dietary vitamin C intakes that provide at least adequate, if not saturating plasma levels (i.e., 100-200 mg/day), which optimize cell and tissue levels. In contrast, treatment of established infections requires significantly higher (gram) doses of the vitamin to compensate for the increased inflammatory response and metabolic demand.”[xvii]
Top Sources of Vitamin C
Fresh fruits and vegetables are among the best sources of vitamin C. The word “fresh” is important, as vitamin C is heat-sensitive, so cooking depletes levels — and the longer the food is cooked, the lower the levels tend to be.[xviii]
Remember, your body doesn’t store much vitamin C, and any excess will leave your body via urine. Because of this, it’s necessary to consume sufficient amounts of vitamin C daily to keep your levels optimized.
While you can take vitamin C in supplement form, eating a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables offers you vitamin C along with additional beneficial phytonutrients. Top sources of vitamin C to add to your daily diet include:
Broccoli and Brussels sprouts Cauliflower Green and red peppers Leafy greens, including spinach and turnip greens Cabbage Sweet potatoes Tomatoes Winter squash Citrus fruits, including orange and grapefruit Kiwi Mango Cantaloupe Papaya Pineapple Berries, including strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and cranberries Watermelon

This year it’s time to keep our money home.’
By Alison Weir
Breaking Defense, a digital magazine that covers military issues, reports that Israel may ask for its U.S. aid early, possibly in a lump sum that could be as high as $7.6 billion.
This would work out to almost $21 million per day from American taxpayers, even though the U.S. is approaching a $4 trillion deficit (the largest in the world), and Israel typically has a lower unemployment rate than the United states.
The report is by Breaking Defense Israel correspondent Arie Egozi, an Israeli citizen who served in the Israeli military and is close to the Israeli security establishment.
Egozi’s article states that because of the coronavirus pandemic, “Israel’s Ministry of Defense and high command have hammered out an emergency plan for an appeal to Washington.”
The article, which carries a Tel Aviv dateline, reports: “Sources here say the COVID-19 pandemic is forcing Israel to ask Washington to make major changes to the [aid] agreement, including a request to receive the annual allocation $3.8 billion earlier than planned.”
U.S. aid to Israel is normally disbursed in October, in a lump sum that is deposited to an interest-bearing Israeli account in the New York Federal Reserve Bank. (Since the U.S. has been operating at a deficit, this means that the U.S. government borrows the money and pays interest on it long after it has gone out.)
Potentially $14,000 per minute from American taxpayers
In addition to receiving the aid earlier than usual, a “senior source” quoted by Egozi suggests that Israel may request that the aid expected for 2024 also be disbursed this year.
If that happens, it would work out to nearly $21 million per day, or $14,460 per minute to Israel from American taxpayers suffering from a devastating hit to the U.S. economy.
Moreover, it is highly likely that when 2024 comes around, the advance would be forgiven, as have numerous U.S. “loans” to Israel, and Israel would get the aid again.
The current aid to Israel is based on a 2016 agreement by the Obama Administration to give Israel $3.8 billion annually for the next 10 years – a total of $38 billion, touted as the largest such aid package in U.S. history. Overall, Israel has received more U.S. aid than any other country, on average, 7,000 times more per capita than others.
While the Obama Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is a non-binding agreement, Israel has received this sum every year since it was signed. Israel advocates in Congress are currently seeking to cement it into a law that would permit this amount to go even higher in the future.
A ‘wild idea’ that might not appeal to Americans
Egozi reports that the former president of Israel Aerospace Industries, Joseph Weiss, said asking for the money ahead of time is “a wild idea,” but said it “makes sense in the special conditions created [in Israel] by the pandemic.”
However, it’s unlikely that this would make equivalent sense to Americans, who have been at least as hard hit by the pandemic.
Over 26 million Americans so far have lost their jobs, and many U.S. companies are facing bankruptcy. A comment below Egozi’s article suggests how Americans would respond to a massive outlay to Israel this year:
“Why do Americans put up with all this money going to Israel when millions of them have no healthcare, no job, and are eating from food banks?”
To deflect such outrage, Israel partisans in the U.S. typically defend the aid by saying that it eventually goes to U.S. defense companies. However, they fail to mention that millions of the dollars go to Israeli companies that compete with American businesses, often leading to job losses in the U.S. No other country receiving U.S. military aid is allowed to do this.
In addition, many Americans feel that Israel should use its own money to purchase its weaponry, as the U.S. does. They point out that if Americans wished to subsidize weapons companies, the U.S. government could simply purchase items for American use.
Similarly, a growing number of Americans object to the uses Israel makes of U.S. weapons, regularly deploying them in violation of both international law and U.S. law (also this).
However, the pro-Israel lobby in the U.S. is extremely influential in both political parties, and U.S. media rarely report on aid to Israel, so the lump sum could slip through without notice.
An administration official recently said that Israel would not need to worry about money “even if there is a depression.”
Petition by Council for the National Interest
A critic of the aid, former CIA officer Philip Giraldi, points out that Israel is not an ally, and that it has often “done damage to the United States.” Giraldi, who is currently executive director of the Council for the National Interest (CNI), notes that Israel often spies on the U.S. and has stolen American technology. It also tried to sink a U.S. Navy ship, killing 34 Americans and injuring over 170.
Giraldi is asking people to sign a petition by CNI: “Stop the $3.8 Billion to Israel.”
The petition states: “…We need to take care of Americans and not send our tax money to a wealthy foreign country. Israel has already received billions of dollars from American taxpayers. It has received over $10 million per day, year after year. This year it’s time to keep our money home.”

renegadetribune--2020-04-28--Life After COVID: A Look at the New Economy

Renegade Editor ’ s Note : I do not endorse everything Daisy is saying here , nor do I think any of it is a done deal , as we always have the power to change the direction things are heading and foil our enemy ’ s plans .
I post this because it is a decent overview of where we are headed with the current trajectory .
Many Americans have been locked down in their homes for more than a month now , and they ’ re anxiously awaiting the day when things “ get back to normal.
” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ I wrote previously , that we ’ re never going “ back to normal.
” The world After COVID will not be like the world Before COVID .
It ’ s very important to understand what lies ahead so we can prepare for it .
Two reasons that the world After COVID will be so different are problems with the economy and the supply chain .
Let ’ s take a look at both and see where we ’ re headed .
The government stepped in fairly quickly after lockdowns began to approve @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
These loans were to be distributed by the institution with which the small business does their banking .
Unfortunately , the outcome would be laughable if it wasn ’ t so tragic .
Here ’ s an example : Chase Bank gaveRuth ’ s Chris Steak House a $ 20 million forgivable loan meant for small businesses by dividing it up by locations instead of treating the company like the large corporation that it is .
Incidentally , Chase “ earned ” $ 100K for processing the loan .
After everyone rightly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s Chris is returning the 20 mil .
Chase and Ruth ’ s Chris aren ’ t the only culprits .
There were all sorts of shenanigans that meant the fund ran out of money before the legitimate small businesses could even complete their applications .
For example , big banks earned ten billion dollars in fees for processing the loans and here ’ s a list of big companies that played around with this system and drained it of millions .
Another round of small business loans has been approved by @ @ @ @ @ @ @ holding my breath that any of this will happen in the way we ’ ve been told it will .
So to summarize , a lot of the small businesses who need the money to survive haven ’ t gotten it yet and may never get it , but big banks and big businesses are sitting pretty with the help of their cronies in Congress .
It isn ’ t a stretch of the imagination to say that the longer a small business stays closed , paying their expenses and holding inventory while @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the less likely they are to reopen successfully ( or at all ) once the all-clear is given .
And if they can ’ t reopen ?
All those folks they used to employ will be out of a job .
Despite seemingly generous government offerings of stimulus payments and higher-than-normal unemployment payments , getting by is about to get a whole lot harder .
First of all , many people haven ’ t yet received their stimulus payments .
Some states still haven ’ t rolled out their COVID unemployment registration websites @ @ @ @ @ @ @ still haven ’ t gotten one thin dime .
It isn ’ t going to be long before that stimulus money is gone and if unemployment hasn ’ t yet kicked in , the first week of May is not looking pretty .
A lot of folks were unable to make rent or mortgage payments in April , and of the ones who managed to hack together last month ’ s payments won ’ t be able to pay rent and mortgages .
It isn ’ t just a roof over their heads @ @ @ @ @ @ @ use of food banks has soared over the past month .
People who were barely making ends meet before are in a hole from which they may never dig out .
And this isn ’ t out of laziness or any other lack of “ virtue ” – people can ’ t go to work because their workplace is closed .
And it ’ s a perfect storm .
If people are not allowed to work and the government is not following through with its promises of aid , there will be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of civil unrest and crime waves .
At the same time , many of those who have gotten their COVID unemployment are refusing to go back to work .
Why would they go back to getting minimum wage when with unemployment and the extra $ 600 per week , they ’ re getting close the $ 3000 a month ?
Businesses can ’ t reopen without employees .
Unfortunately , when the COVID unemployment is over ( it ’ s currently good for a total of 3-4 months ) , people may not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because , as I mentioned above , the longer a business is closed while still facing expenses , the less likely that business is to survive .
It ’ s very likely that even once we ’ re “ open ” again , unemployment numbers will remain extraordinarily high .
Prices are going up .
Meanwhile , what money people are able to scrape together isn ’ t going to go nearly as far as it did Before COVID .
A lot of folks haven ’ t been to the store in a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ go back they ’ re going to be in for one hell of a surprise .
Prices have increased on just about everything .
On the products with no price increase , many companies have reverted to the rather deceptive practice of selling a smaller container for the same price as before .
( We found this to be true on both peanut butter and coffee , to name two examples . )
You ’ re going to pay more for things like meat , eggs , canned goods , pasta , frozen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
As well , food manufacturers are halting promotions – so things won ’ t be going on sale like they used to .
Of course , they ’ re doing this to “ help ” us out by making it more expensive , thus keeping people from being able to buy as much .
In a given month , “ 22 % of food on store shelves is discounted , according to the companies under its coverage , and the average discount is 23 % .
” According to MarketWatch , getting @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a 5 % increase in sales .
This means , of course , a 5 % increase in what consumers are paying will occur .
And that ’ s just for certain items .
Eggs have actually tripled in price since early March and many readers have reported seeing the price of their commonly purchased items increase by 25 % all the way up to double the Before-COVID price .
Then there are the supply chain issues .
And this isn ’ t the worst of the news .
Shortages are appearing to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stores struggle to hide by spreading out the inventory and filling in gaps with items that are more plentiful .
Some of the things that are missing are products that originate in China – see this list .
Other items , like paper products , are also sparse even though many of these things are made in the USA .
It isn ’ t just because of so-called “ hoarders ” either , as the media wants us to believe .
There have been shortages of TP across the globe and the main @ @ @ @ @ @ @ now at home most of the time now .
Previously , a lot of a person ’ s toilet paper usage was outside the home – so everyone was using those giant janitorial supply rolls .
Most households are now using 40 % more toilet paper than before .
This interesting article goes into detail about why there isn ’ t a quick and easy fix for this .
Then there are food “ shortages.
” Interestingly , this problem isn ’ t necessarily about actual shortages as much as it is processing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ country are shutting down as more and more employees become ill. At least ten large meat processing plants have closed due to the virus .
Distribution issues have farmers dumping thousands of gallons of milk , plowing under vegetables in the fields , and leaving potatoes to rot .
A lot of the food being produced was destined for restaurants , hotels , and cruise ships .
Diverting it to grocery stores and the millions of people using food banks right now ( because they didn ’ t get their money from unemployment @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not as easy as it should be .
This article explains some of the issues with getting food to hungry people .
One of the issues is processing .
With meat , in particular , this is difficult – most folks aren ’ t even going to be willing to process their own chickens and it ’ s wildly unrealistic to imagine a family in the city processing a cow or a pig .
With produce , it becomes a little bit easier – anyone can wash fruits and vegetables – but employees @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
A lot of that scarcity could be remedied if we could reallocate things – if janitorial supplies could be sold to the general public , if farmers could sell directly to stores or consumers , and if farmers could donate unpurchased items to food banks .
To summarize , farmers are losing billions of dollars and people are going without food , while the food we have is left to rot .
Hopefully , President Trump ’ s new 19 billion dollar plan will allow the federal government to play matchmaker between @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s put all this information together .
Here ’ s the TL ; dr version : Trillions of dollars were created from thin air to “ help ” us through the crisis .
Unfortunately , a lot of that money is now lining the pockets of massive businesses that would survive regardless .
Many small businesses will never reopen .
Many jobs will never come back .
People who are getting COVID unemployment would have to take a massive pay cut – for many , more than two thousand dollars a month @ @ @ @ @ @ @ they have no interest in returning to their jobs .
Why would they when they ’ re more financially secure sitting at home ?
But they ’ re not thinking ahead – these new-found riches are only coming in for 3-4 months .
People who are not getting money are going to run out very soon ( if they haven ’ t already ) and this will result in an uptick of crime and civil unrest .
Meanwhile , the money that folks have will buy less as the cost of just about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ This all leads nowhere good .
I ’ m not saying that COVID-19 itself was a big conspiracy but more a case of “ never let a good crisis go to waste.
” One possible outcome is Universal Basic Income .

( I previously wrote about UBI here but I thought the trigger would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ give everyone 16 and over $ 2000 per month for at least the next six months .
The bill is called the Emergency Money for the People Act and would provide $ 2,000 a month for a guaranteed six months or until “ employment returns to pre-COVID-19 levels.
” “ Pre-COVID-19 levels ” mean the employment to population ratio for people ages 16 and older is greater than 60 % .
The monthly cash payments would not count as income .

So a family of four with two children earning income up to $ 260,000 a year would receive $ 5,000 .
A single tax filer would get $ 2,000 .

By Daisy Luther
Many Americans have been locked down in their homes for more than a month now, and they’re anxiously awaiting the day when things “get back to normal.” I regret to inform you, as I wrote previously, that we’re never going “back to normal.” The world After COVID will not be like the world Before COVID.
It’s very important to understand what lies ahead so we can prepare for it.
Two reasons that the world After COVID will be so different are problems with the economy and the supply chain. Let’s take a look at both and see where we’re headed.
The After-COVID economy for businesses
The government stepped in fairly quickly after lockdowns began to approve a massive number of small business loans. These loans were to be distributed by the institution with which the small business does their banking.
Unfortunately, the outcome would be laughable if it wasn’t so tragic.
Here’s an example: Chase Bank gaveRuth’s Chris Steak House a $20 million forgivable loan meant for small businesses by dividing it up by locations instead of treating the company like the large corporation that it is. Incidentally, Chase “earned” $100K for processing the loan. After everyone rightly lost their marbles over this, Ruth’s Chris is returning the 20 mil. Chase and Ruth’s Chris aren’t the only culprits. There were all sorts of shenanigans that meant the fund ran out of money before the legitimate small businesses could even complete their applications. For example, big banks earned ten billion dollars in fees for processing the loans and here’s a list of big companies that played around with this system and drained it of millions.
Another round of small business loans has been approved by Congress but I’m not really holding my breath that any of this will happen in the way we’ve been told it will.
So to summarize, a lot of the small businesses who need the money to survive haven’t gotten it yet and may never get it, but big banks and big businesses are sitting pretty with the help of their cronies in Congress. It isn’t a stretch of the imagination to say that the longer a small business stays closed, paying their expenses and holding inventory while not being able to earn income, the less likely they are to reopen successfully (or at all) once the all-clear is given.
And if they can’t reopen? All those folks they used to employ will be out of a job.
The After-COVID economy for individuals
Despite seemingly generous government offerings of stimulus payments and higher-than-normal unemployment payments, getting by is about to get a whole lot harder. First of all, many people haven’t yet received their stimulus payments. Some states still haven’t rolled out their COVID unemployment registration websites, so we have unemployed folks who still haven’t gotten one thin dime.
It isn’t going to be long before that stimulus money is gone and if unemployment hasn’t yet kicked in, the first week of May is not looking pretty. A lot of folks were unable to make rent or mortgage payments in April, and of the ones who managed to hack together last month’s payments won’t be able to pay rent and mortgages.
It isn’t just a roof over their heads that people are worried about. The use of food banks has soared over the past month. People who were barely making ends meet before are in a hole from which they may never dig out. And this isn’t out of laziness or any other lack of “virtue” – people can’t go to work because their workplace is closed.
And it’s a perfect storm. If people are not allowed to work and the government is not following through with its promises of aid, there will be a response – most likely in the form of civil unrest and crime waves.
At the same time, many of those who have gotten their COVID unemployment are refusing to go back to work. Why would they go back to getting minimum wage when with unemployment and the extra $600 per week, they’re getting close the $3000 a month? Businesses can’t reopen without employees. Unfortunately, when the COVID unemployment is over (it’s currently good for a total of 3-4 months), people may not have jobs to come back to, because, as I mentioned above, the longer a business is closed while still facing expenses, the less likely that business is to survive.
It’s very likely that even once we’re “open” again, unemployment numbers will remain extraordinarily high.
Prices are going up.
Meanwhile, what money people are able to scrape together isn’t going to go nearly as far as it did Before COVID.
A lot of folks haven’t been to the store in a month or so. When they do go back they’re going to be in for one hell of a surprise. Prices have increased on just about everything. On the products with no price increase, many companies have reverted to the rather deceptive practice of selling a smaller container for the same price as before. (We found this to be true on both peanut butter and coffee, to name two examples.) You’re going to pay more for things like meat, eggs, canned goods, pasta, frozen pizza, and other popular lockdown foods.
As well, food manufacturers are halting promotions – so things won’t be going on sale like they used to. Of course, they’re doing this to “help” us out by making it more expensive, thus keeping people from being able to buy as much.
But the tactical dynamic is that we’re in daily discussions with our customers on how to help them meet the needs of their shoppers. And many customers are looking to pull back on promotions as they try to manage the basics of just keeping their shelves stocked. (source)
In a given month, “22% of food on store shelves is discounted, according to the companies under its coverage, and the average discount is 23%.” According to MarketWatch, getting rid of the discounts will lead to a 5% increase in sales. This means, of course, a 5% increase in what consumers are paying will occur. And that’s just for certain items. Eggs have actually tripled in price since early March and many readers have reported seeing the price of their commonly purchased items increase by 25% all the way up to double the Before-COVID price.

To summarize, farmers are losing billions of dollars and people are going without food, while the food we have is left to rot. Hopefully, President Trump’s new 19 billion dollar plan will allow the federal government to play matchmaker between frustrated farmers and hungry families.
Introducing another run at UBI
Let’s put all this information together. Here’s the TL;dr version:
Trillions of dollars were created from thin air to “help” us through the crisis. Unfortunately, a lot of that money is now lining the pockets of massive businesses that would survive regardless. Many small businesses will never reopen. Many jobs will never come back.
People who are getting COVID unemployment would have to take a massive pay cut – for many, more than two thousand dollars a month – to go back to work so they have no interest in returning to their jobs. Why would they when they’re more financially secure sitting at home? But they’re not thinking ahead – these new-found riches are only coming in for 3-4 months.
People who are not getting money are going to run out very soon (if they haven’t already) and this will result in an uptick of crime and civil unrest. Meanwhile, the money that folks have will buy less as the cost of just about everything goes up and scarcity continues.
This all leads nowhere good. I’m not saying that COVID-19 itself was a big conspiracy but more a case of “never let a good crisis go to waste.”
One possible outcome is Universal Basic Income.
We’re being told we’ve got no place to go except giving away a lot of free money – although they’re calling it something different: the Emergency Money for the People Act. (I previously wrote about UBI here but I thought the trigger would be different).
This fund would give everyone 16 and over $2000 per month for at least the next six months.
The bill is called the Emergency Money for the People Act and would provide $2,000 a month for a guaranteed six months or until “employment returns to pre-COVID-19 levels.”
“Pre-COVID-19 levels” mean the employment to population ratio for people ages 16 and older is greater than 60%. The monthly cash payments would not count as income.
You could still apply for income-based federal or state assistance programs, such as assistance with purchasing food.
Who would be eligible for the money?
Everyone 16 and older making less than $130,000 annually would receive $2,000 a month;
Married couples earning less than $260,000 would receive at $4,000 per month;
Qualifying families with children will also receive an additional $500 per child for up to three children.
So a family of four with two children earning income up to $260,000 a year would receive $5,000. A single tax filer would get $2,000.
If you are unemployed, you are eligible for the money, as well.

Adults with disabilities were also left out of the stimulus payment since they could be claimed as dependents on others’ tax returns. They would be eligible for the Emergency Money for the People Act. (source)
What could possibly go wrong with “free money,” right?
Plenty. Hyperinflation is one major factor nobody’s talking about – this money they want to give away does not exist and is backed by nothing. If you think prices are super-high now, just wait.
And then there’s the other cost.
Trust me when I tell you there will be a high price tag for that “free” money and the cost will be liberty. Maybe it will be your freedom to decide where you work.

(Back to that civil unrest and crime again). And to some degree, they’re right – the current straits Americans are finding themselves in can be chalked up to decisions made by the government. But I can’t imagine that in this direction lies liberty.
What can you do?
The answer, as always, lies in self-reliance. The less you need, the better off you’ll be. I’ll go more in-depth later but find some general guidelines below.
Produce or acquire food as much as possible. Gardening; sprouting; raising livestock for meat, eggs, and dairy; hunting; and foraging are all ways to put food on the table yourself. Learn to preserve food. When food is plentiful, putting it back by canning, dehydrating, and freezing. Localize your supply chain. Find local farmers and purchase directly from them. Visit pick-your-own farms, get CSA shares, or hit up your farmer’s market. Buy in as much quantity as you can for the best prices. Slash your budget. Get spending down to a bare minimum right now while we wait to see how things pan out. Mend and repair. Instead of throwing things away and buying new when something breaks or gets damaged, learn how to fix things like clothing and household items. Make do. There are a lot of things we get that we don’t need: upgraded phones, new clothing, decorative items, updated vehicles, newer tools, and small kitchen appliances. Whenever possible, make do with the things that you already have. Make things last. Use everything to the last drop. Squeeze out that last little bit of toothpaste. Add some water to your dish soap.

renegadetribune--2020-04-29--Hermann Herzog’s Paintings of Nature’s Beauty

Born in Bremen , Germany , Hermann Herzog began to study painting in Düsseldorf in 1848 , with Schirmer , Lessing , Achenbach , and Gude .
He was deeply influenced by his teachers who urged him to travel in search of “ scenic beauty and inspiration , ” and he chose landscape painting as his primary subject .
In the flush of early success , Herzog exhibited paintings in Germany and France , winning a prize at the Paris Salon of 1863 .
He counted Queen Victoria , the Grand Duke Alexander of Russia , and other members of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ living in Germany , Herzog sent paintings to the Pennsylvania Academy ’ s annual exhibitions from 1863 to 1869 , establishing an American market for his work .
Possibly prompted by the Austro-Prussian War and the resulting civil unrest , he immigrated to the United States with his family in 1869 .
They settled in Philadelphia and Herzog began traveling widely throughout the eastern United States painting scenes of Niagara Falls , Lake George , the Chesapeake Bay , New Hampshire ’ s White Mountains and the Maine coast in his meticulous , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ moods , he would get up at three in the morning , and set up his materials outside to capture the first light of dawn .
In the mid-1870s , Herzog made his first trip out West , discovering the breathtaking , mountainous landscapes of Utah , Oregon and California ’ s Yosemite Valley , and towards the end of the 19th century he began producing Florida landscapes inspired by the region ’ s tropical , lush foliage .
Nature was Herzog ’ s chosen muse and the varied landscapes that he painted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the exotic riverbanks of Florida , the majestic cliffs of Yosemite or the tranquil , woodland interiors of the East Coast , attest to his versatility and talent .
A Walk along a Path at Sunset shows the painter in a more poetic , contemplative mood , with its subtle gradation of sunlight , and warm and cool contrasts .

Born in Bremen, Germany, Hermann Herzog began to study painting in Düsseldorf in 1848, with Schirmer, Lessing, Achenbach, and Gude. He was deeply influenced by his teachers who urged him to travel in search of “scenic beauty and inspiration,” and he chose landscape painting as his primary subject. In the flush of early success, Herzog exhibited paintings in Germany and France, winning a prize at the Paris Salon of 1863. He counted Queen Victoria, the Grand Duke Alexander of Russia, and other members of royalty among his patrons. While still living in Germany, Herzog sent paintings to the Pennsylvania Academy’s annual exhibitions from 1863 to 1869, establishing an American market for his work.
Possibly prompted by the Austro-Prussian War and the resulting civil unrest, he immigrated to the United States with his family in 1869. They settled in Philadelphia and Herzog began traveling widely throughout the eastern United States painting scenes of Niagara Falls, Lake George, the Chesapeake Bay, New Hampshire’s White Mountains and the Maine coast in his meticulous, polished style. Interested in capturing atmospheric moods, he would get up at three in the morning, and set up his materials outside to capture the first light of dawn. In the mid-1870s, Herzog made his first trip out West, discovering the breathtaking, mountainous landscapes of Utah, Oregon and California’s Yosemite Valley, and towards the end of the 19th century he began producing Florida landscapes inspired by the region’s tropical, lush foliage.
Nature was Herzog’s chosen muse and the varied landscapes that he painted, whether the jagged fjords of Norway, the exotic riverbanks of Florida, the majestic cliffs of Yosemite or the tranquil, woodland interiors of the East Coast, attest to his versatility and talent. A Walk along a Path at Sunset shows the painter in a more poetic, contemplative mood, with its subtle gradation of sunlight, and warm and cool contrasts. The lone figure is seen not as an intruder, but a welcome guest in harmony with her surroundings. (Bio from Incollect)
