Share this list of shocking questions with everyone you know that needs to wake up. Sometimes asking good questions is the best way to get someone that you care about to understand something. When I attended law school, I became very familiar with something called "the Socratic method". It is a method that has been traditionally used in law schools all over the United States. Law professors will bombard their students with questions, and the goal is to stimulate critical thinking and allow students to discover the answers for themselves. Many times those of us that can see what is happening to this country get frustrated when we try to get others to see what is so apparent to us. But instead of preaching to them, perhaps asking questions would be more helpful. When you ask someone a question, they are almost forced to think about what you just said and come up with a response. And without a doubt, the fact that America is in decline is undeniable. Those that would choose to blindly have faith in the system are foolish, because it is glaringly obvious that the system is failing. Our economy is heading for collapse and the world around us is becoming more unstable with each passing day. So it shouldn't be a surprise that the number of preppers in the United States is absolutely exploding. Some estimates put the number of preppers in the U.S. as high as 3 million, and the movement continues to explode.
So exactly what is a "prepper"? Well, the truth is that there is a tremendous amount of diversity among the people that fall under that label.
To me, you don't have to move to Montana and store 500 cases of MREs in a nuclear fallout shelter to be considered a prepper. I believe that anyone that can see a very serious crisis coming and that is taking steps to prepare for that crisis would be considered a prepper. You might be living next to one and never even know it. Many families have converted spare rooms into food pantries or are taking survival training on the weekends. Others have renewed their interest in gardening or have started to invest in precious metals. As far as I am concerned, anything that you can do to become more self-sufficient and more independent of the system is a good thing, because the system is rapidly failing.
Perhaps you are reading this and you are thinking that people who are "preparing for disaster" are being rather foolish. Well, I encourage you to read the list of questions that I have compiled below and come to your own conclusions.
The following are 50 shocking questions that you should ask to anyone that is not a prepper yet…

#22 Why is an elderly survivor of the Nazi occupation of Austria, Kitty Werthmann, warning that America is heading down the exact same path that she experienced?
#23 If the economy is in good shape, then why are more than one out of every four U.S. workers with a 401(k) raiding those funds in order to pay current expenses?
#24 Why does the Federal Reserve continue to insist that the economy is "improving" when it obviously is not?
#25 Why can so few Americans explain how money is created in the United States?
#26 Why has the U.S. dollar declined in value by well over 95 percent since the Federal Reserve was created?
#27 Why is the U.S. national debt more than 5000 times larger than it was when the Federal Reserve was created?
#28 Why isn't the mainstream media in the U.S. discussing the fact that the U.S. dollar is in danger of losing its status as the primary reserve currency of the world?
#29 Why don't more Americans know about the quadrillion dollar derivatives bubble?
#30 Why did the U.S. national debt grow during the first four years of the Obama administration by about as much as it did from the time that George Washington took office to the time that George W. Bush took office?
#31 Why is the middle class in America bringing home a smaller share of the overall income pie than has ever been recorded before?
#32 If the U.S. economy is producing a healthy number of good jobs, then why are we spending nearly a trillion dollars a year on welfare?
#33 If the U.S. economy is not collapsing, then why has the number of Americans on food stamps grown from 17 million in the year 2000 to more than 47 million today?
#34 If America is still an economic powerhouse, then why have we lostmore than 56,000 manufacturing facilities since 2001?
#35 Why are we losing half a million jobs to China every single year?
#36 Why were one out of every ten homes sold in the state of California last year purchased by Chinese citizens?
#37 Why has the percentage of men with jobs in the United States fallen so dramatically? Back in 1950, more than 80 percent of all men in the United States had jobs. Today, less than 65 percent of all men in the United States have jobs.
#38 Why are so many Americans poor today? According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more than 146 million Americans are either "poor" or "low income". Why is this happening?
#39 Why does the U.S. government have a website that teaches immigrants how to sign up for welfare programs once they arrive in the United States?
#40 Why has the number of gang members living in the United States risen by an astounding 40 percent just since 2009?
#41 Why does approximately one out of every three children in the United States live in a home without a father? Can such a society prosper in the long run?
#42 Why are our supermarkets being flooded with genetically-modified foods when a whole host of studies have shown that they are potentially dangerous to human health?
#43 If the economy has "improved" during the Obama years, then why are hunger and poverty still absolutely skyrocketing in the United States?
#44 Why are more than a million public school students in the United States homeless?
#45 Why are more than 50 percent of all children in Detroit living in poverty? Detroit used to be one of the greatest cities in the entire world. How did such prosperity turn into such desolation?
#46 Why did a violent riot break out at an event where government-subsidized section 8 housing vouchers were being handed out in a suburb of Detroit earlier this month? Is this the kind of unrest that we can expect to see all over the country when things get really bad?
#47 Why are cities all over the United States making it illegal to feed the homeless?
#48 Why is the UN trying to take control of the Internet?
#49 Why have global food supplies sunk to their lowest level in nearly 40 years?
#50 Why is global power concentrated in so few hands? According to the Swiss Federal Institute, a network of 147 mega-corporationscontrol 40 percent of all the wealth in the world, and in a previous article I described how just six obscenely powerful corporations completely dominate the media industry in the United States. Is it good for such incredible power to be concentrated in the hands of so few people?
Please share this article with as many people as you can. It only takes a few moments to share an article, but the person on the other end that reads it might have their life changed forever.

What is condominium insurance?
Condominium insurance is similar to homeowners insurance but is designed for the specific needs of condo living. Many families choose condos because of the convenience of on-site maintenance and access to community amenities. In this environment, the main structures of all buildings and common areas are covered by an insurance policy held by the condo association. However, a personal condo insurance policy may cover property damage and liability risks of the unit owner.
Who benefits from condominium insurance?
Condo insurance is beneficial for all condo owners as well their visitors. In fact, most mortgage companies require condo owners to purchase a policy for the duration of their loan. Condo insurance may cover damaged, lost or stolen property due to fire, theft or natural disaster. This protection could extend to interior furnishings, including walls, flooring, ceilings, appliances and fixtures.
In addition, this type of policy could cover you against liability claims. If you are found liable for a visitor's injury, condo insurance could cover associated medical expenses and/or legal fees.
How much condominium insurance do you need?
The necessary amount of condo insurance largely depends on the value of your possessions. By determining how much it would cost to replace your possessions, you can estimate the policy size that would be appropriate for your individual needs.
Call us today to learn more about protecting your home with condominium insurance.

The Air Compressor Is a Versatile Tool
The Air Compressor is one of the most versatile tools in any garage or workshop. It is easy to use and can perform a variety of tasks, from jackhammering to drilling. These machines are available in a wide variety of sizes and types, making it an excellent choice for a variety of situations. With a single motor, you no longer need separate motors for each tool. Its lightweight, compact design makes it easy to handle, and the single motor also reduces wear on parts.
Oil-injected air compressors require a large amount of lubricant, which needs to be added to the sump regularly to maintain optimum performance. As there are many types of industrial fluids, a well-intentioned maintenance technician may add the wrong lubricant to the compressor. If this happens, the compressor will become incompatible with the lubricant, resulting in excessive carryover and the need to flush and replace downstream air treatment components.
Typically, the G 110-250 oil-injected rotary screw compressor from Atlas Copco provides reliable compressed air, preventing costly downtime. The G110-250 oil-injected rotary screw compressor is highly reliable and durable, enabling it to function in temperatures up to 46degC/115degF. Despite the oil-injected air compressor's robust design, this unit requires very little on-site installation, and it features simple operation.
The primary advantage of oil-injected air compressors is the reduced cost of running. The cost of oil-free compressors is less than half of that of oil-injected ones, and it will require fewer maintenance costs in the long run. Moreover, the oil-free system is more environmentally friendly than oil-injected air compressors. But the drawbacks of oil-injected air compressors are substantial, too. It can contaminate finished goods and cause a significant financial risk for the manufacturer.
An oil-injected rotary screw air compressor offers several advantages over its counterpart. First, it features an innovative vertical design with variable-speed drive, allowing it to run more efficiently. Second, oil-injected air compressors reduce energy consumption by up to 50% compared to non-oil-injected air compressors. They also have a thermostatic valve, allowing them to maintain an optimum temperature. Thermostatically-regulated oil coolers allow the compressor to run more quietly.
What is an oil-free air compressor? The name refers to a type of air compressor that does not contain oil in the compressor chamber. Oil-free air compressors still use oil for various purposes, including lubricating the moving parts and managing waste heat. However, many people do not realize that their air compressor still requires oil for proper functioning. This article will explore why this type of air compressor is preferable for many users.
First of all, oil-free air technology has many benefits. For one, it reduces the energy cost involved in filtering air, and it minimizes leaks. Moreover, it also reduces the oil costs associated with compressor refills. And finally, it reduces the risks of contamination. Oil-free air technology is the future of compressed air. If you're looking for an oil-free air compressor, here's what to look for in your search.
Depending on the purpose of your air compressor, it may be beneficial to invest in an oil-free air compressor. Oil-lubricated air compressors are generally more durable than their oil-free counterparts, but they may cost twice as much. You should still consider the cost of ownership before purchasing an oil-free compressor. The oil-free models can be easier to transport, and they are more powerful. Moreover, they're quieter than oil-lubed models.
An oil-free air compressor also means less maintenance, as it doesn't need oil to work. This type of air compressors also features fewer moving parts, which means fewer places for problems to develop. All oil-free air compressors are manufactured to meet ISO Class 0 and 1 air purity standards. They also have less noise and vibration compared to their oil-based counterparts. So, why not choose an oil-free air compressor for your business?
When choosing a gas-powered air compressor, it's important to consider the advantages of gasoline. This energy source can power a large air compressor without electricity. However, this type of air compressor lacks electrical hookup, so you'll need to run an extension cord if you need to use it at a distance. However, gas compressors are able to function with just a gas tank. This makes them ideal for medium to heavy-duty industrial applications.
Another important consideration when choosing a gas air compressor is its size. Larger compressors are typically larger than portable ones and require more space. This makes them easier to transport and operate on the go. However, if you're not sure which type of air compressor is best for you, consider the gas-powered versions. While they may be lighter, they don't run as smoothly as their electric counterparts. Gasoline-powered compressors are not as portable as their electric counterparts and require proper maintenance.
Electricity in an air compressor is not cheap. A 25 HP air compressor runs for ten hours each day, five days a week. The motor in these machines consumes 746 watts per hour. To find out how much electricity the equipment uses, multiply the wattage by the running time. For example, if the compressor runs for three hours, then it will use 1.9 kilowatt hours of electricity. To determine how much electricity an air compressor uses per day, you can calculate the kilowatt hours and multiply the number by the utility rate. Considering this, you can determine the cost of running your air compressor once per month.
The cost of operating an air compressor depends on the type of compressor. Electric air compressors are often silent and can run without any maintenance. These tools can be left unattended for up to four thousand hours before requiring repair. Electric air compressors require higher power for higher pressure, so you should plan accordingly. Whether or not you need a maintenance visit is up to you, but the benefit of not having to spend a fortune on repairs is priceless.
Although compressed air is not an energy-efficient source, its use in a variety of applications may save you money and kilowatts. Since an air compressor uses power when it is running, the cost is lower than the cost of operating a power tool. If you plan to use your air compressor for a long time, make sure that it is maintained properly. Proper care will save you money and power, and you may even be able to get an extended warranty if the compressor breaks down.
Variable frequency drive
The main purpose of a variable frequency drive (VFD) in an air compressor is to reduce energy consumption in the process of compression. A single motor drag system cannot adjust its speed continuously according to the weight of the load. By applying frequency control to the compressor, the power consumption can be reduced while maintaining the same pressure level. Therefore, a VFD is an excellent choice for compressors. Its benefits are numerous.
A VFD can also monitor the temperature of the motor and send error signals if the motor is running too hot or too cold. This eliminates the need for a separate sensor to monitor the oil pressure. These functions are useful not only in lowering energy consumption, but also in improving the performance of an application. Moreover, a VFD can monitor additional variables such as temperature and motor speed. Hence, it is a useful investment.
When using a VFD, it is crucial to choose the right motor. The speed of the compressor should be within the maximum starting limit of the motor. The air tank may be of any size, but a constant pressure limit is required to keep the VFD running within the service factor of the motor. In addition to a VFD, a master controller should also include a remote pressure set point and a PID card for a master controller. The transmitter should incorporate all useful data from the VFD, including the speed and the oil temperature. The VFD must be tested before it is integrated with the master control. It should be tested for min and max speed, temperature, and current within the expected range.
The use of a VFD in an air compressor has many benefits. One of the most notable is the reduction in power consumption. Fixed-speed compressors run on set points of six to seven bar. An extra bar of compression uses 7 percent of energy. This energy is wasted. A VFD-powered air compressor can also increase the life span of compressor parts. It is one of the best investments in your compressor. So, why wait any longer?
