During World War II the Japanese controlled the parts of south Asia where the largest amounts of coconut oil was being imported to the US from. Since we were effectively cut off from our source of coconut oil American manufacturers began to come up with other sources of cooking oils. Then the war ended. The manufacturers had way to much to lose by allowing coconut oil to once again become a staple cooking oil. Hence forth began the scare tactics seen so much in modern day capitalism. The stigma created since then is starting to wear off as people rediscover the miraculous healing properties of coconut oil.

From the mainstream:
CNN did a great story on the wondrous job our NAZI Department of Homeland Security is doing “protecting” the citizens of our free nation.
I particularly enjoyed at 3:15 where the Retired Brigadier General states, “There’s gonna come a point in time where everyone’s on the watchlist.” They then go on to tell [...]

Yes, yes, I’m against women’s suffrage, they should not have the right to vote…but hear me out on this one.
Women are, as far as natural rights are concerned (at the very least) entirely, 100%, fully equal to men. This means that women have just as many rights as do men. That is to [...]

Throughout the ages of time Gold and Silver have been the currency used to trade for goods. Only in the last 100 or so years have we replaced them with paper money. In the old days banks would hold your gold and silver for you and issue you “bank notes” that could be traded with others and then turned back in for gold and silver. We slowly began to drift away from this system until the government deemed it unnecessary for people to own precious metals and saw it fit to force people to use ‘federal reserve notes’ that are backed up by nothing and whose value can be totally manipulated by the government itself. It’s time you ask yourself how much faith you have in these paper federal reserve notes.

We are coming into that time of year where backyard gardeners and those into homesteading have an abundance of tomatoes.

How about making some delicious fresh home made spaghetti sauce. Here’s how…
