We Are All Preppers Now
Damian McBride is the former head of communications at the British treasury and former special adviser to Gordon Brown, erstwhile Prime Minister of the U.K. Yesterday he tweeted some surprising advice in response to the plunge in global equities markets.;
Advice on the looming crash, No. 1: get hard cash in a safe place now; don't assume banks & cashpoints will be open, or bank cards will work.
Crash advice No. 2: do you have enough bottled water, tinned goods & other essentials at home to live a month indoors? If not, get shopping.
Crash advice No. 3: agree a rally point with your loved ones in case transport and communication gets cut off; somewhere you can all head to.
Evidently, McBride interprets the wipe-out of over $3 trillion in total global market cap during the three-day rout as a prelude to a much broader and deeper financial crash that will precipitate civil unrest.
Just like mid-October last year, the market howls; the Fed panics & puts the dummy back in; and we all pretend it's OK again. It's madness.
— Damian McBride (@DPMcBride) August 25, 2015
Every day the era of easy borrowing persists just means even more loans that won't be repaid when the real crash finally comes.
— Damian McBride (@DPMcBride) August 25, 2015
Today is just the stock market catching up with the terror over defaults that's been gripping the bond market for months.
— Damian McBride (@DPMcBride) August 24, 2015
According to McBride,
We were close enough in 2008 and what's coming is on 20 times that scale.

a few interesting products that might have some useful value: a lifestraw, you'll still need the water source but it can be almost any source (a family size is available). a biolite stove/grill combo set, quite efficient and generates electricity to a usb (there is a larger camp size too). freeplay led lantern, charge by usb (see stove previous), crank or plug in a solar panel. the 3 things together probably don't weigh 10 lbs and fit in a small bag.
search out biolite, lifestraw and freeplay for more info to see if it would fit the bill for you.
http://codegreenprep.com has excellent articles on every topic.
Order an 1858 New Army Remington or 2 right away from Cabelas with a coupe extra cylinders each (they change out quickly) and the starter kit. No BG check needed and you can still order through mail most places. Pound of pyrodex is about $20 local, bulk if you order as haz fee is ~ 20'also. You get 200-300 loads a pound. Loaded hot (35-38 grains) you've got something carrying energy equivalent of many modern pistols, just slower loading and 19th century ergonomics. I LOVE my pair and they're cheaper to practice with than my 45 ACPs.
Well, this week spooked this guy and he just can't hold his breath any longer. Get ready folks, the writing is on the wall.
I have to tell you that McBride is an unprincipled sheister. The clue is in the CV - advisor to Gordon Brown, the chancelloer that sold our gold at rock bottom price, ran up a record annual deficit in times that should have allowed the building of a surplus (to buy votes of course) and left our country with record debt. Having said that, while the tweets are overdone, the brought sentiment is probably not far off......
On the no-fly list in 3,2,1 ...
Looks like even the Brits are waking up!
Stop being such a baby McBride. The problem with politcos et al, is that they are so disconnected from reality that they really think that the masses are just going to kill themselves off, well in some parts of the world I would have to say yes that is the case...but not in all parts and in some parts of the world humanity still exists. So don't just think its going to just be let to burn, this is a cycle. A cycle thats exists within a universe that is supposedly inifinte.
detroit will be the first to de-populate
We are prepped and ready here. Popcorn ready to be popped, too.
Aaaaaaaaaaaand....ACTION!!!
Same here. Gave up on the PSRV idea. True story, we were just interrupted by a Jehovas Witness. She was very nice and quoted a scripture about being in God's tent, where you will be absolved/freed from death. Wow, what timing! In the coming tyranny you still have a choice, you can seek shelter under the FEMA tent or God's, but not both. You either side with the Freedom Fighters or the totalitarians, same as it ever was.
I still like my Paradigm Shifting RV idea but I've realized that, at this point, it's a dream that will have to wait until after the smoke clears from the collapse, otherwise I'll have to defend the PSRV from the FSA. Much easier to stay in the bunker until after the herd is culled. No FEMA tent for me. The Jehovah's Witness lady needs to be reminded that God helps those who help themselves.
Yep, when we got the quote back from Armordyne/Martin-Marrieta which included the three-inch thick iron kevlar/titanium embossed web shell, front and rear 50 cal. turrets, over 'n under SCUD launchers, cloaking option, one-time-only jet-propulsion GTFO option, 360 degree flame throwers, zombie biomass fuel option, submersible package, and twin Veyron engines which resulted in an MPG of .006, we also decided to stay put.
"God helps those who help themselves"
The bible says this nowhere. But it does say whoa to him that would add or subtract from the word of God.
I just spit out my coffee imagining God saying "whoa" like Keanu Reeves.
What's a PSRV?
Paradigm Shifting Recreational Vehicle? (as MH suggests) or maybe
Pressure Safety Relief Valve, or maybe
Physical Security and Risk Visualization?
I'm kinda liking the last one... even if it isn't right
Someone help me out here... thank
A) Paradigm Shifting Recreation Vehicle
Wouldn't it be nice if there was a button on the dash that when pushed would wormhole you to anywhere but here?
Ah thanks TD
My PSRV is the Herkimer Battle Jitney or HBJ for short, from the movie Mystery Men, sadly they don't exist, so ii got me a welding set & am gonna build me one out a 2000 cadillac escalade with a snow plow blade... thankfully they come with a Flux Capacity as standard equipment (unlike the cheaper Yukon)... the turrets & jump jets, on the other hand, are gonna take a bit of time to MacGyver
So you and Meat are going to hunker down, huh? I have concluded that's probably what I'll have to do too; though I have arrangements with friends in the country I'm not sure there will be time to act when it all comes down. I fear, though, that THEY (DHS, military etc.) may try to force us from our homes 'in our best interests' - or even burn us out, especially those of us in the cities. It would be good to have plans to leave in a hurry if needed, I think.
Meat: I think you live in my city, from what I've seen of your comments. I'm west of 5, so if you are close and you'd like another local contact let me know. Don't worry, I'm properly provisioned :-)
HURRAH for Mr McBride.
Probably one of the most sensible pieces of advice that I have seen come from The Establishment for a very long time.
Whoa there cowboy. Not so fast with the plaudits. That little shit McBride was Brown's henchman and stool-pusher. I don't know what his motives are for "coming out" but you should understand his background. Him and his shirt-lifting buddy "I saved the world" Brown were a cancerous blight on the UK. Brown's party, New Labour, got into power by promising to reduce the size of the Tory party's unemployment (Dole) queue. They were voted in on that premis and made good on their promise. Gorgon "nose-picker" Brown simply took 1m people off the unemployement register and gave them non-jobs "working" for the state. Whereas before these people "only" cost the country the value of their unemployment benefit they now cost us their share of the building they occupy, the rent, rates, electricity and heating bill, their car parking space and seat in the canteen, their desk, stationery, computer, software licences and training, their holidays and their gold plated pension. Needless to say, he turned a current account surplus which he inherited into a deficit within two years of gaining office and ran a deficit ever since. He doubled the national debt and implemented the white paper written by Andrew Neather which advocated unbridled immigration with the explicit purpose of preventing the pendulum swinging back to the right when they were inevitably kicked out of office.
Here he is with his version of a mea culpa
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EBZJ4I3CYSw
The Gorgon and his malevolent sidekick McBride were cunts of the highest possible order.
Thankfully Guido Fawkes nailed the bastard and he was sacked:

You have forgotten that Tory Blair adopted every policy of the Tories and moved further to the right, starting with the piratisation of the NHS; something that even Thatcher considered as going too far. New Labour was the implementation of the Thatcher TINA directive - There Is No Alternative. All the main UK political parties are now the same, apart from superficial detail. All are bought and paid for by the US, serving global US interests.
Nothing like the scaremongers using twatter to stir up max fear.
I am sure I will wish I'd had more time to prepare etc but personally I'm tired of waiting. Sooner we start this show the sooner we can rebuild.
I'm prepped to the point where I give myself 3 chances out of 4 or surviving a nuclear war.
Where's your house again?
when you're borrowing just to pay the interest, you are @#$#ed
We're on track to be debt-free (well, outside of our mortgage and student loans, which I don't care about) by the end of the year. From $14,000 in revolving debt to zero in 18 months.
It can be done. Without children, it's easier.
..
I've got my cardboard box under the overpass all paid off, too.
Hate to break it to you, but when things go south, but before a complete collapse (I estimate 6-12 months) if you can't make the mortgage payment they will take the house from you. You might not care about it, but it matters.
How many years after 2008 did people live in their house without making a mortgage payment ?
bunch of them STILL living there. when things go south there ain't going to be enough authority available to go take houses. I don't reckon anyone will even show up. hell they ain't even going to be able to do the courthouse thing or have papers delivered to you.
If the end of this particular boom-bust cycle ends how I think it will, you'll probably be able to whip up a big enough angry mob to go down to your county sheriff's office and convince him to flat out not enforce foreclosures. Maybe the Fed will pull something out of its ass, but I'm not holding my breath.
We hemmed and hawed about paying the penalty to get out of 401k right b4 all these wild swings. That money is now earmarked for even moar self-sufficiency stuff. We're thoroughly average so I figure a lot of people are going to do the same thing.
Yep. 60% of your 401k is still better than 100% of nothing.

"The wise man in the storm prays not for safety from danger, but for deliverance from fear."
Emerson
"Now is the judgment of this world"
No point in praying against what must happen. There is a time for everything, even a global reset to zero.
People shoud be prepared for a few months regardless of the fearmongering etc.. Its not that difficult. By the way, after all the massive turmoil this week, the DJIA is about right where it was on Monday morning...Aint that a hoot.
A hoot? Sure. To me it smells of desperation. Stocks ain't the economy, but the Fed and co are scared shitless of what happens if that which is not the economy crashes. Fear. Smell it. This won't play out in a day or a week, it'll take months or years, but when it's done and over with, it'll seem like it happened in the blink of an eye.

Basically, you want to start living how most of our grandparents did. Amazing how far we've fallen in a couple short generations. Now a huge percentage of people are dependent on government handouts just to live. To this list I'd add get some skills people need. It's great that you're a top-notch financial adviser but I can assure you if things really get that bad you'd do better as a carpenter or whatever. You can also assume minimal law enforcement so be prepared to defend what you have.

I've stocked up on pork, chicken, and propane as I plan to cook on the propane grill. However, the smell of grillin meat will attract the hungry hoardes.
Any ideas on how to cover up the aroma?
Piece of plywood next to the grill with a cleaver stuck in it surrounded by lots of pigs blood and some old clothes and shoes all hacked up. Tell em' you just couldn't wait till the SHTF to get real grillin' on!
LOL! Well, that's one idea.
I love the smell of Napalm in the morning. get some napalm
A .260 Remington with some quality optics. If anybody gets almost close enough to smell it, you shoot them. That way, they don't smell it.
Outstanding caliber. Super accurate.
Boil water on the grill, pour it over meat and rice or beans with spices in a thermos. Seal it and let it sit for 45 min to hour. Poof, instant meal without zombie attracting aroma...
Argenta, ah contraire, there will be law enforcement. What do you think they will do when the checks stop, trained in intimidation, poorly educated, many low skiled in other areas, they will continue to use the skills they have, be prepared for that..
Translating for Americans: "puts the dummy back in" refers to a "pacifier". In case anybody cared. Nice analogy though.
Should I be concerned that I agree with him 100%?
I'd be concerned if you didn't.
i work at a defense contractor and hummers with roof-mount turrets have been slowly building up in our parking lot last few weeks
How are they painted? Desert tan, forest camo, xxx? Just curious...
painted up like a Yellow cab
...in order to expedite the masses to Centers of Truth Education, I suppose. Diabolical, but makes sense...
our guerrilla fighters have all been instructed to use Uber.
Code named Uber This.
all desert tan - which is what the local surroundings are
we have had other mil vehicles in our parking lot; for testing, prototyping, etc - but never this many at one time
Probably due to ISIS refusing delivery...

This was August 25 (Last Tuesday). I wonder what he's saying today?
How many movies do you have to watch where a single handgun would have immediately ended the movie, before it dawns on you that it's as important as food? So don't be a pussy, tweet "firearms and ammo"
Just get hammered ... Go buy some whiskey and get blind drunk.

No, we are all soldiers now.
Either soldiers for the the Restoration of Liberty, the Constitutional republic, and human dignity, or soldiers for tyranny.
Don't worry, tyranny will make this choice for you, if you don't.
Zion is a scheme, not an ethnicity..
Bottled water. What exactly is this guy preparing against? Bad weather?
Folks I suggest you start to think long and hard about what the end of the world as we know it actually implies. I've got a really active imagination, I think very clearly about things that I take time to think about at all, and bottled water never once came to mind as important as regards a Very Bad Day.
He's in the UK. They typically only stock in their own kitchen what they intend to eat in the next 24 hours. Having a 3 day supply of food is unheard of amongst some.
You think prepping is a year's worth of supplies, but there it is a week's worth.
People gotta start somewhere. I give him credit for at least sounding the alarm and suggesting a starting point. Those who hear the call will figure the rest out for themselves as they go.
Don't give him any credit at all. He's a destructive little shit who helped destroy this country with his boyfriend Gorgon Brown. If he said something right you can bet your bottom dollar that he said that for a reason, just not the obvious one. The man's "occupation" was a spindoctor. He couldn't tell the truth if it was his dying breath. He truly is a sack of shit.
To me, bottled water is something that I keep a a shitload of in my Jeep at all times. It's a stopgap measure. If I get stuck or break down, well, I've always got enough water for a day or three. When it comes to hardcore prepping, you look at having enough water for the rest of your life, and that's different from prepping for a broken axle or "shit, the top half inch was dry, but below that, holy fuck was it soupy mud, and I just sunk to the frame!" I have bugout locations, and they all have water.
Let us all recite the Gunsite Prayer:
The fuck. Die in a pile of brass? You would totally suck as an apex predator, where your last thought is suppose to be "okay that's it now imma kill this stupid cunt".
That wall was made of knives and have a nice day.
Amen.
Seems like a contrary indicator to me... TPTB don't want the population to be prepared, and "Gordon Brown adviser" is a phrase screaming to be faded.
Maybe this is just an effort to reduce inventory and boost spending.
heh yeah. like dying in a pile of brass, you consume your way right to the end. great for the economy.
McBride like so many of those in priviliged positions believe there is somewhere for them to hide from the masses.
Nope.
In such a scenario, be fit and ruthless is the only prepping you can do. If you can't fight be a good runner.
Not true. Many who are fit and ruthless don't have the first clue how to feed and hydrate themselves and keep themselves warm.... especially if they get thrown out of there home.
Tip from those who have been through it... learn to be invisible.
Gray man
Just what the fed govt and dhs is been saying for years
http://www.ready.gov/
but but but...that would make you one a dem terroristsssss
... and putting people on the terrorist watchlist for actually following the advice
be sure to saw the barrel down as short as possible.. wider pattern, run single 0 buck shot.. more lead down range and go semi auto.. in effect a hand held repeating mini claymore mine you can hold in your hand and point in any direction.
Be sure you wait to do such a thing until after the collapse happens. MAJOR ATF VIOLATION.
Forced labor in an orange jumpsuit while your family starves is not a good way to weather the end of the world.
RULE # 1 STAY OUT OF JAIL EVEN IF IT CRIMPS YOUR PERFECT SURVIVAL PLANS
Thanks Damien for both you and Gordon selling out your Country at the price "$300.00 an ounce" nearly 18 years ago.
Being a steady accomplice to the worst crime(s) against humanity with the lie of all lies... First 9/11 then 7/7(the sacred blood oath that you were on board and committed) to sell your people on rape, theft and murder of the Middle East in it's entirety due to that Zionist partnership.
And now thoughtfully providing your constituents with an open confession making a "sign of the cross" with the holy water after you've been washing your ass with it for more than 20 years!
Fuck You!!!
I only hope this bit of informative news is followed with a suicide note and a "nail gun"!

I got a buddy who is the ultimate zero hedger, and he doesn't even know it. He's a doctor. He and his kids (and wife) hunt their property, fish the river and the ocean. Their freezers are always full. They grow hot house vegetables year round, pressure can everything. They have their own water source, and their own fuel source (wood). His older son and daughter know how to load cartridges . . .instead of video games, they make ammo.
None of this is motivated by any hedge to zero. It's just the way they live.
Your main priority [once stocked up] is to get into shape.
There will be no place for the fat bastards in the new world!
Pear is a shape.
fat bastards rule!
Can livers unswell?
soylent green.
Those fat bastards will be able to hold back, relying on their fat reserves for energy while a lot of others are getting kicked to the curb as their bodies consume their muscle. There is the issue of vitamins and minerals and malnutrition, but if they're smart, they'll be able to get by on a lot less than a lot of people.
The question is, what event causes the plunge in global markets? Attacks on power grids seem to coincide with McBride's three suggestions.
Stupid preppers. Your supplies are no match for the fake alien death rays the Taiwanese will release on their giant triangular blimps. I mean... they just want to knock off the mainland chinese based on a genetic tag... but they will make a mistake. Once that reduces the human population to something reasonable, the real alien invasion will happen.
It's really a shame, as I love Taiwanese tea.
I already did all of this in 2007. I had land in one of the most isolated areas of the US, had my own water supply, I was close to commodities (which I figured would fare better than most things), had tons of things stored up etc.
Seven years later I realized that the area I had located myself in was loaded with predator morons who would do anything TPTB would ever ask of them including killing their own and if the SHTF they would be the biggest threat, there was high level masonry and cult activity going on locally (no joke), my chickens all were eaten by something that I couldn't seem to protect them from, as I worked constantly all of my belongings were at risk, the men in the area didn't want to date a woman they wanted complete ownership of them, my location was nearing annexation from a local town, my neighbors prominent wife decided she hated me and made it her mission to ruin me in any way she could (the crazy bitch even had video serveillance from her property to mine) and while it did end up profitable I was isolated and miserable. I eventually decided that death near a nice metropolitan area was more desirable.
As I have traveled in lived in many places and make friends easily I thought I could just plop my ass down anywhere and get along and blend in with the local population, big mistake. Just be careful where you decide to go, make sure it isn't children of the corn. I lost over 6 years of my life to that.
That's powerful advice. That's why I'm staying in my suburban yet heavily forested location with extra stashes not that far away.
Wow Ms No! I did the same thing and I moved to a tiny town that is mason infested. I'm isolated and actually prefer it.
These "people" out here don't even seem human.
One neighbor started talking a weird language that I have never heard before and I actually considered calling 911, but her friend said that she does that from time to time. It wasn't any human language and it was like demon possession.
I also have photos of glowing orbs outside my house. I know it sounds nuts, but it's true and I have photos that prove it. I'm staying here and I just ignore everyone and keep stacking.
Yeah, I didn't even believe in that Stanley Kubrick shit, at least not on any large scale but apparently it's real. People were swapping wives and there were horrible things happening to animals, raped and tortured horses, I found two dead dogs that were dumped and had to return them to thier owners (started to worry that people were going to think it was me) and all kinds of bizarre things.
Strange that you mention it but that entire area was purported to have a major problems with paranormal activity of various kinds and you heard about it constantly. Makes one wonder, which comes first the chicken or the egg? I have to admit that I saw a few things myself. The place was a nightmare, I had the Sheriffs dept ask me to look for the body of a dead woman on my property in -30 degrees (murder unrelated to masonry) and that was about enough for me, luckily she was found somewhere else.
I sold that property and rolled it into another to avoid capital gains and the next place was further away and somewhat better but still just effing weird. Whatever you think about how weird this country has become you can take that and magnify it by ten. I'll wonder about that shit for the rest of my life.
A doctor I once worked with said never engage in conversation with a crazy person; otherwise, you end up on their map."
Water fountains turned into frog ponds surround my house. They eat the huge beetles that live in the 4 large trees surrounding me. One day, mosquito abatement group came up and knocked. They informed me that I had mosquitoes in this 9 x 6 ft water fountain, and that they had put in 2 silver fish, and that I was to call them if these silver fish died. I was like. Oh. Okay. That was 2 months ago. I flushed out the ponds and was certain the silver fish were gone. The other day, I look into it, and I see there are 3 new silver fish. I am on their map. Meter reader for power company reprimanded me for getting water on a sidewalk between 2 flower beds. "Just be careful, there's a fine". My lawn is dead and gone. BTW.
Strategic moving of large communities, paid for by Yours Truly, over many decades appears to have happened. Redistricting is the other option. I feel like middle class bug caught in a spider's web and there isn't a soul interesting in saving us. Great lengths are gone to in order to create animosity toward white middle class. This I can only conclude is because they are going to steal the wad holding up the stock market and this theme to make the victim the aggressor is to deflect attention off of them. Child predators do this to the children, toss them to the side afterwards, lookg at them with contempt for having taunted that monstrous act upon themselves because they are just no good.
I didn't believe in this stuff either.
I don't know for sure, but it seems to be increasing exponentially apropos demonic happenings.
The "people" out here absolutely hate me and it's so bad that I can't get food in a diner or it will make me sick. Probably food poisoning.
This is the Twilight Zone.
Oh wow! That sounds just like my own family. My cousins wife is the same type and his mother stole money from my grandmother and everyone else. Also, you have the Kennedy cult. Now they have the Elizabeth Warren - even after the Cherokee nation demanded to meet with her and verify her claims of Native American ancestry. Lost many years living in the horrible commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Great story. Whereabouts was this?
In the vacinity of the Bakken.
Sounds like Hawaii.
Those Brits better start hording butter knives NOW. Their last bastion of preparation for self-defense.
That and curtseying.
maybe an extra set of dentures with self defense teeth. Extra long and extra sharp so you can bite your way out of a scrape.
Yep, those poor bastards are going to have to claw their way up the castle walls by their fingernails. They probably better call the Irish, they will come up with something, hopefully it will look like that Israeli wall scene in World war Z.

Just BTFD and stop your bellyaching
let's be honest, if anybody here thought TEOTWAWKI was imminent, the last thing they'd be doing is commenting about it on a website and breaching their own security by bragging to strangers about their preps
Little Sue: He said how you was really William Munny out of Missouri... and Bill said "Same William Munny that dynamited the Rock Island and Pacific in '69 killin' women and children an' all?" And Ned says you done a lot worse than that, said you was more cold blooded than William Bonney or Clay Alisson or the James Brothers and how if he hurt Ned again you was gonna come an' kill him like you killed a U.S. Marshall in '73.
Will Munny: And that didn't scare Little Bill though, did it?
Little Sue: No, sir.
What happened? Something about dreaming?
We shouldn't be that surprised.
UK newspapers have said how Gordon Brown had made plans to put troops on the streets in 2008.
They thought it was a one off event and safe to reveal how close we were to collapse.
This man was on the inside track then.
We had a petrol tanker delivery strike in 2001 and the nation was nearly on its knees in four days.
How would you manage without petrol?
Imagine when credit cards, debit cards, online banking and cash machines stop working.
How long can you last with no means of paying for anything?
This was a very possible scenario in 2008 that the UK (now) openly planned for.
Things are worse now and he doesn't hold any official position so he can speak openly.
Get ready.
There is a fifth horseman of the apocalypse and he is a banker.
So Damian, you have finally woken up.
Now that the horse has long bolted and taken all those others in the stable with him.
As the DOOR has been kept WIDE OPEN since 6 years; notably by the LIKES of your ex-boss, COMPLICIT in this financial; and may I say SOCIAL crime; that this incredible conspiracy STATE SIDE, of all western governments, has begotten.
Running along as Pro<tec<tors of the mad men of money printing banksta clique, hurtling headlong into the death spiral of your OWN crony, gullible, greed infested making, with us as collateral victims.
How have you and your kind served the common good as YOU now quit the floundering ship of capitalistic demise that will have as consequence the ramping up of militarist plays and genocidal elimination of innocent victims all around the world?
As we now see deferling from dystopian third world coming to our own first world frontiers, as victims of our own administrations' past hubristic machinations to protect our "vital" oil and RM interests at any cost.
Cos these "men of state", of which you were once an active participant, now have no other option-- to save their own skins-- than to go further down this road to perdition.
Its called TINA, remember that? As Thatcherism's Labourite child you should!
May the devil take the hindmost!

i recently installed window bars and out swinging security doors. gives you a little extra time to take other measures if neccessary.
Were the outswing doors a special order item?
i replaced the internal swing doors completely frames and all with the security doors that swing outward (can't kick it in, custom work).
This week I was at a bank doing credit analysis and the banker made the statement during several different discussions that "This borrower is a prepper". One of the borrower's was late on a loan payment but he wasn't worried because she had a stockpile of cash in her safety deposit box.
First Time for that.
It seems to be spreading and becoming more mainstream.
Thank you Fed.
good place for it, not.
And she told the banker. LOL
Anything kept in a bank, isn't safe in an emergency. Sounds like this person is a lemming.
She hasn't gone through the American school of hard knocks training.
If you don't hold it, you don't own it.
Prepping had become mainstream amongst the masses a couple of years ago and I suppose now we have a sign that it is main stream thought within the elites.
For those that are contrarians the news couldn't be brighter.
We can only hope such scenarios unfold.
You could clean up the entire subdivision in 20 minutes. A group could bring control to and clean up a city in a day or two.
No Mercy!
So what happens if the HFT's have this market right back to where it was at in the matter of a couple weeks? LOL. Everything back to normal? No more end of world?
Some would call it prepping for me its as more about economics and the quality of life.
I raise most of the food we eat ,the meat steroid and hormone free ,no insecticides usedi n the garden
Keep it cost effective and simple
Few can last indefinetly and its about buying time and staying out of some line and away from the crazies ,Imagine 20% of the population off there meds?
The herd does not care now but when this economy rolls over and plays dead they will leap from the easy chair toss the remote and bellow WUT! dash into the street all dumb to a waiting police state right on schedule.
Wake up and smell the coffee! This country is one event from total society breakdown.
