Dontcha believe them!

            I'm into gardening at the moment. I was curious to find out what the hype is all about - I was invited to join this group of avid gardeners and they seem such a happy lot! Being me, an avid researcher, I traipsed over to youtube to find out more. And I got hooked! Well, enough to give it a shot at least ;)
            Today I heard this during a talk on permaculture [on youtube - of course!]: "when u believe that yr sustenance is dependent on the stores, then u'll fight to keep them [stores]". How absolutely true! 
            We've been conditioned to think that we'd only be able to feed our family if we farm on a big scale. That there's no way our little postage stamp front/backyard, balcony, rooftop would produce a crop big enough to feed the average household of 5. So we grow flowers or lawns instead in these spaces. And end up spending a lot more in its upkeep. Ironic isn't it.
            Hurray! The powers that be are happy. Delirious in fact. And they keep on brainwashing us by telling us that there's a lack of food in the world. We swallow this hook, line and sinker. I mean, most, if not ALL of us have seen pictures of skeletal people in Africa and various other parts of the world. We hear of famines. We hear of pests, droughts and such like disasters wiping out food supply. And we feel so blessed that we can still comfortably get access to "fresh and healthy" food albeit at rising costs.
            Is the produce that we purchase really fresh? Is it really healthy for us? We know it's not. So we try our best to buy organic foodstuff - at an even higher price! Which makes it unaffordable to most. I mean, how many can really afford chicken at RM35 per bird? So we quietly consume the pesticide residue in our food. Whilst giving thanks for our bounty. 
            Congratulations, Mr Zionists! I read about how the zionists get us at every level of our lives - food and entertainment ranked highest on their to-do list. I must say they've done a great job. They got us thinking that store bought food is the best for us. That uniform looking vegetables and fruits with absolutely no markings on the skin are great and healthy stuff. That modern farming technologies to create higher yield and better looking produce are really helping the world arrest starvation. We only woke up from our stupor when they tried to shove GMO food down our throats. Oh, bless you [not], Monsanto! Since when would a company synonymous with pesticides be interested in our wellbeing??
            So, yea, Mr Zionists, you got us there. But you know what? Many have dared to prove you wrong. They travel to those parts of the world deemed impossible to grow anything and have made "oasis of deserts". Without the use of pesticides. Or synthetic fertilisers. Or heavy machinery. Or exorbitant cost. These folks work with whatever's available on site. They respect nature and cooperate with it. And nature showers them with abundance. Many pockets of seemingly arid land is now green. Proof that when men work hand in hand with nature, abundance is assured.
            People are amazed to find out that they could feed themselves for a whole year with just a 4'X4' plot! I'm amazed too. 4'X4' is an area most of us have to play around with. Whether it's flat on the ground, or vertically up a wall. 
            If you're willing to eat local produce, you should be able to cut your food bill quite considerably if you would just work a 4'X4' plot. Check out square foot gardening on youtube. Prepare to be amazed :)
