As the push toward The Great Reset continues, many Americans are doing what they can to remain independent. But the globalist elites are pushing back with everything they have to force dependency on as many patriots as possible. On today’s episode of The JD Rucker Show, I discussed five ways they’re trying to do it.
First, we have to understand the difference between control and forced dependency. Control is relatively easy to achieve, as we saw during the first 18-months of the Covid Plandemic. The told us to wear masks, so most did. They told us to get vaxxed, so many did. They told us not to go to church, so most didn’t. We were being controlled and far too few American patriots stood up to them.
Forced dependency is the formation of the Absolute Welfare State. It’s what happens when circumstances warrant an existential decision. Comply or die. It sounds like something we would never see in the United States of America, but how many things have we seen since early 2020 that we thought before could never happen here?
Henry Kissinger wasn’t writing a quotable line for the history books when he talked about control. He was writing a playbook. That’s why it’s not surprising the first three of the five ways I discussed about how they’re going to force dependency are directly from his infamous globalist quote.
“Who controls the food supply controls the people; who controls the energy can control whole continents; who controls money can control the world.”
It’s important to know that they will not invoke direct government control over any of these five paths to forced dependency. They will use public-private partnerships to “solve” problems they’re creating in a classic Hegelian Dialectic set of circumstances. They will partner with people like Bill Gates for food. They’re already partnered with many energy companies and they will add to their ranks. They partner with central banks for financial controls. They will partner with BlackRock and others for shelter control. And, of course, they will advance their already-existing partnerships with Big Pharma to control healthcare.
I go into much more detail on the show, but here are brief overviews of each of the five ways they’re attempting to establish forced dependency for as many Americans as possible.:
Who Controls the Food Supply Controls the People
This is the obvious one that’s being created through their manufactured food shortages. It’s no secret that people like Bill Gates have been buying up massive amounts of farmland. This will come into play in a major way once store shelves start really going bare.
Who Controls the Energy Can Control Whole Continents
Just as many European nations are scrambling in preparation for a cold winter without Russia’s natural gas, so too is the U.S. government scrambling to prepare for a gas apocalypse. But it’s all for show. They will partner with effectively all energy companies to put strict controls on price (which will be their predicate for going down this draconian road) but more importantly on supply. Only the compliant will be able to get gas, heat their homes, or power their lives.
Who Controls Money Can Control the World
Central Bank Digital Currencies. That’s it. That’s the ready-made path that has been set forth for a public-private partnership. Instead of controlling industry, they simply need to control currency. That will make everything else fall in line for them.
Shelter Control
Some may think their goals of controlling where many if not most people live is all about keeping us grouped together, but that’s a secondary benefit for the globalist elites. The real benefit to them is being able to establish the Total Surveillance State. By keeping people on “public-private” land, they will be able to keep tabs on them 24/7. Think 1984.
Healthcare Control
Covid was the dress-rehearsal. We’re going to see far more stringent controls over healthcare, especially when the next Plandemic hits. Whether it’s a new variant of Covid, Monkeypox, Hemorrhagic Fever, or something else, we can expect a so-called with a higher death rate pop up and compel government to get fully in bed with Big Pharma.
Why?
What is behind all of this? Is it just for The Great Reset? Is that their endgame? No. The Great Reset is a pathway to establish dependency among the masses for one purpose and one purpose alone: To drive a wedge between us and our Creator.
Jesus Christ said He is the way, the truth, and the life. The powers-that-be want to change that paradigm, at least as it’s perceived by the masses. They want to determine the way people exist. They want to control what is perceived as truth. They want to make the choice for the people about whether they live or die.
The vast majority of those working toward The Great Reset have no idea about any of this. The truth about the machinations is limited to the globalist elites as well as patriots who are willing to see this for what it is. If you’ve read this far and understand it, you’re part of the latter group. We must fight the good fight, pray constantly, and move forward knowing how the story really ends.

Bypass Big Tech Censors
Two Storms, One Harvest
Every food crisis in living memory has been a one-shock event. The 2008 price spike was a commodity bubble. The 2020 shortages were a logistics failure. The 2022 grain scare was a war on one exporter’s ports. Each time, the system bent, adjusted, and recovered, and each time the experts assured us afterward that global markets are simply too big and too diversified to fail.
What nobody in Washington seems eager to discuss is that 2026 is shaping up to be something the modern food system has never actually faced. Two independent shocks, one climatic and one geopolitical, are converging on the same harvest cycle at the same time. Not sequentially. Simultaneously.
Start with the weather. The Pacific Ocean is currently building toward what forecasters now openly call a record event. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center puts the odds of at least a strong El Niño near 88 percent, with roughly two in three odds it reaches “very strong” status, the tier reserved for perhaps three or four events in the entire satellite era. Every major global model now projects a median peak in Super El Niño territory, and most of them project it exceeding the 2015-16 event, which until now held the modern record. Sea surface anomalies were already brushing the super threshold in mid-July, months before these events normally peak. The atmosphere has already shifted into El Niño mode, and the event is forecast to crest in late fall and early winter.
This is not about “climate change.” It’s about the standard cycles of weather, and the cycle we’re currently in is one that has likely devastated societies in the past. We’re better prepared as a society today, but not all Americans are equally prepared.
Serious households have started doing the quiet math on their own. Grocery bills tell part of the story, and the forecast maps tell the rest, which is why long-term food storage has moved from fringe hobby to mainstream line item in the family budget, with established suppliers like Heaven’s Harvest seeing demand from people who five years ago would have rolled their eyes at the idea. That instinct is not paranoia. It is pattern recognition, and the pattern is worth walking through carefully.
Editor’s Note: Heaven’s Harvest IS a sponsor, but the warnings of this article are real and would be written even if we didn’t have a survival food sponsor. With that said, those who take advantage of what they offer can use promo code “Patriot” for 15% off.
The Fertilizer Clock Is Already Running
While the Pacific warms, the second shock has been unfolding in the Strait of Hormuz. The conflict with Iran turned the world’s most important energy chokepoint into a contested waterway, and the consequences reach far beyond the gas pump. Roughly a third of global fertilizer trade moves through Hormuz, and the disruption sent urea prices up 86 percent year over year by March, with a 53 percent jump in a single month.
The World Bank projects energy prices rising about 24 percent in 2026 and fertilizer about 31 percent. By its own accounting, fertilizer prices ran 35 percent higher in the first five months of this year than the same period last year.
Here is the mechanism the nightly news will not explain. Fertilizer is not a grocery item. It is a time-delayed input. The nitrogen a farmer in Iowa or Punjab could not afford to apply this spring does not show up as a problem this spring. It shows up as a thinner harvest six to twelve months later.
The World Bank’s own food security brief concedes that the effects of reduced applications earlier this season “are likely to become visible only later in harvest outcomes.” Translate that from institutional language into plain English and it means this. The damage is already done, it is already in the ground, and we are simply waiting for it to arrive on the shelf.
Now check the calendar. Six to twelve months from the spring planting season lands us squarely in late 2026 and early 2027. Which is precisely when the strongest El Niño in the instrumental record is forecast to peak, bringing its signature droughts to Southeast Asia, Australia, southern Africa, northern Brazil, and South Asia, the very regions that grow the world’s rice, sugar, and oilseeds.
The World Bank warns openly that a strong El Niño “could disrupt multiple crop belts simultaneously” on top of the conflict-driven input costs. Their baseline projection assumes the Middle East disruptions ease by autumn. What in the last two years of Middle East history suggests that assumption is safe?
The System Has No Slack Left
The comfortable answer is that global markets always adjust. But adjustment requires slack, and the slack is gone. Global cereal production is expected to decline from last year’s records even before El Niño does its work. The UN World Food Programme, hardly a den of right-wing preppers, is calling this the most significant disruption to its supply chains since Covid and the invasion of Ukraine, and its supply chain director put the stakes bluntly.
Today’s supply chain challenges are tomorrow’s hunger crisis.
There is also a political dimension that markets cannot price. When food gets scarce, governments do not behave like economists. They behave like politicians. Export bans, hoarding mandates, and panic buying at the national level turned the modest rice shortfall of 2008 into a global crisis, and analysts are already warning that import-dependent nations are the first dominoes.
The 2015-16 Super El Niño, a far weaker event than what is now forecast, threw tens of millions into food stress across Africa and Asia. This one is projected to be stronger, and it arrives with fertilizer already rationed by price and shipping lanes already contested by missiles.
What Joseph Knew
Scripture does not treat preparation for lean years as faithlessness. It treats it as wisdom delivered in advance to those willing to act on it.
Behold, there come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt: And there shall arise after them seven years of famine; and all the plenty shall be forgotten in the land of Egypt.
Joseph did not respond to that warning with a hashtag or a committee. He stored grain during the years of abundance, and when the famine came, Egypt stood while its neighbors begged. The lesson is not that famine is certain. It is that the time to prepare is precisely when preparation still looks optional.
Nobody who filled a pantry in a year of plenty has ever regretted it, and nobody standing in an empty aisle has ever been glad he waited for certainty.
None of this calls for panic, and panic is the enemy of sound judgment anyway. It calls for the same unglamorous prudence our grandparents considered ordinary. Keep some cash margin, know your local growers, and put real food in deep storage while it is cheap and available, because the entire arc of this story is that cheap and available is a closing window.
Families looking for a straightforward place to start can visit Heaven’s Harvest and use promo code Patriot for 15 percent off long-term storable food. The forecasts may yet soften, the strait may yet reopen, and we should pray they do. But hope is a fine thing to hold and a foolish thing to eat.
