Government buying up emergency food supplies

so dilligaf is a member of a survivalist forum and she ran across this post today there.
i found it disturbing as yesterday there was a post on the same forums about another bulk food company having a "major announcement" tomorrow and it would seem to insinuate may 18 they will be out of stock as well..
if anyone is interested in discussing this i can have dilligaf dig up the other posts that have the E mail copy and some other links to articles pertaining to this..

what is our government hiding from us now?? does this concern you?

I spoke today to the folks at internet-grocer.com. I was ordering some cheese and wanted to order the canned butter but they were out. I was told by the sales person that the government had bought their entire shipment when it came in, leaving them with nothing. She said when the government wants it, there was not much they could do.

She said they just did the same thing to Mountain House. Bought almost the entire inventory. If you go to the Mountain House website, it's a pretty empty store right now. Almost everything is unavailable. She said the government has always regularly purchased from Mountain House for the military but this was outside of their usual arrangement.

So here's the kicker. If they are buying up the emergency food supplies, who are they buying them for? They are not stocking shelters for the public. Are they stocking shelters for the government only?

Relatively speaking, I'm not one of the more alarmist types on this board. But this information, to me, speaks volumes.

Let's step it up and get our houses in order, folks.

hhb wernt you also warning about a comming ice age just a few weeks ago?

no refferences its all alarmist conspiracy crap

not sayin it woudd surprise me if its true but you tend to post alotta stuff likethi with no real backup but your own paranoia







i bet the same kinda paranoid rantings have been all over the survivalists forums for 20 years

lets have a lil facts before u attempt ot to cause pannic

I would actually like to discuss this on my blogtalk show. I need more info.

ok,cool.,

i feel its worthy of investigation and discussion as well. i mean being the united nations is warning of global food riots and knowing farmers are selling there stock off in huge numbers etc.

it do make ya wonder dont it?

shes cooking dinner but ill have her dig it up ASAP. theres actually 4 or 5 discussions going on there all basically on the same subject as these people are "survivalists" an times aint lookin to good.
so that bein said, there forums aint set up like here and i havent a clue how to track them down lol..
so as soon as she gets time ill do as much as i can to help..

i wonder if its just due to the "global food crisis" an there shipping it all to where the riots are or if its something more sinister like its being divided out between the government officials to lock away in there safe houses as that was also discussed.

seems 3 weeks ago congress had another closed door session and supposedly that was one of the subjects..

i dunno.. she will find it all an ill post the info when i can..

soaring eagle, if you think the global food shortage and the riots that are now in 33 countries and the fact that the EU and the UN are warning of "GLOBAL FOOD SHORTAGES" is a conspiracy,, then i guess thats your right..

im not quite sure how you can come to that conclusion,,but its your right all the same..

i think it warrants paying attention to especially when bulk food companies are being bought out by the united states government..

wow,, so heres a sample of what mountain house has left after the supposed pillaging by the government..

Dear Patrons,
URGENT NOTICE:
The J. Michael Stevens group (efoodsdirect.com) is issuing an extremely urgent notice regarding world and American food supplies. The United Nations has declared a worldwide food emergency and their World Food Program has requested $1 billion from developed nations to provide food for starvation in underdeveloped countries.

the anticipated May 12th price increase will be announced Friday, April 18th at 12:30pm CST in a special half-hour segment of the Alex Jones Show.

HOW THIS AFFECTS YOU:
Because of the order volume expected between April 18 and May 12 it will be necessary to limit the number of orders that can be processed to 100 units per day. (As you know, unlike food supply retailers, JMS refuses to hold a canned inventory due to the importance to you of storing only fresh, safe, clean food.)

If you need to order additional units of food or are getting your first supplies, be sure to order the wheat necessary for both your present order and previous orders. (We suggest five to six 5 gallon pails for each one adult one-year supply.) The shipping cost on wheat is much more favorable if it’s included with one or more regular food units.

We previously told folks to get wheat locally since shipping cost was so high. Unfortunately, wheat is becoming hard to find in many areas so the warehouse has it available. The wheat is intended to complete your one-year supplies so requests for wheat only bulk shipments are being denied unless they match previous unit orders.

THE UNITED NATIONS WORLD STARVATION CRISIS IS REAL!

With world and American food shortages, rationing and the falling dollar, we've run out of time. Whatever you need to complete your food supply, do it now.

Please note: We'll soon be sending a follow-up letter with instructions on how you can obtain priority placement for your order.

We'll help any way we can for as long as we can.


P.s. It's snowing right now in Colorado Springs.

hang on she bombarded me with information lol..

are you wanting information on the food shortage and the governments involvement as a whole or just on if in fact they are buying up food stocks?

i suppose ya could call the folks that the person spoke to and ask them yourself,,hell ya may even interview the person if it turns out true..
seems the simplest way to know for sure. he gave the name of the company in the OP i put up.

lemme sift through and find what i feel is relevant an ill post it as i find it,, it may take a day or two lol.. .

there is no global food shortage theres a global inteligence shortage
simply reducijng or eliminating the meat industry would solve the food supplky problems globaly

that was 1 store too if u click th link at th top u see other venders are not sold out
