I never said that "...I am anonymous @ 1:41pm.<br /><br />I never said that "prepping" would get us through this in and of itself.<br /><br />But if one isn't prepping now in a big way, it won't matter how hard you work later. Prepping allows one to hit the ground running with some momentum behind him to allow him to make the transition to getting by vis hard work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-82044324132776183322014-09-30T16:48:04.857-05:002014-09-30T16:48:04.857-05:00That is productive asserts come in-the ability to ...That is productive asserts come in-the ability to create and shape our environment. Producers will always have a market of some sort. Unless the dieoff is so great that nearly everything is available for free pickup. Or if there is open warfare raging across the country- that will put a stop to a lot of trade.<br /> Some say a nice neatly maintained and organized farm is the way to go. Everyplace I have ever been that was close to the bone(remote Indian villages, settlements in the Alaskan bush, etc) had a ton of discarded stuff in the yards. I am sure some was just because there was no place to get rid of it, but a lot of the stuff was raided for parts to repair other items. A junkyard is a cornucopia of useful stuff.

I support basic 'prepping' anyway, and will continue to have up to three months' supplies in reserve (all I can afford or have room to store right now). However, if the world economy goes the way it looks like going, even up to three <i>years'</i> supplies in reserve probably won't be enough. It's going to take hard work to keep our heads above water.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10595089829300831372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-25443018660461849682014-09-30T13:41:28.818-05:002014-09-30T13:41:28.818-05:00You will need items to barter for trade as well.
