The Department of Treasury is spending $200,000 on survival kits for all of its employees who oversee the federal banking system, according to a new solicitation. As FreeBeacon reports, survival kits will be delivered to every major bank in the United States and includes a solar blanket, food bar, water-purification tablets, and dust mask (among other things). The question, obviously, is just what do they know that the rest of us don't?

I say We The People do the same. You’re a fool if you don’t have at least SOME prep in place.
None of this is going to end well.
They might do better to buy some “anti-suicide” pills, based on the hundreds of dead bankers we all read about.
But dee gubermint dun said dat dem there preppers are crazee an are dumb folks....
Pinging null and void on this one...
They know how to waste money.
Doesn’t sound like much of a “survival kit”...
Seriously. A 2400 calorie bar might get you through for a few days at best.
Somebody’s relative or college buddy who is a Demo-rat sells “survival kits” apparently.
And here I thought I could just not prep and just camp outside the local bank and just mug the bakers for their kits when SHTF....
Maybe even get a few bricks of worthless demonination bills to burn for warmth too..... I am not greedy, any old worthless paper bill will do.
“...includes a solar blanket, food bar...”
Sounds like the same plan they have for finances.
1 food bar for the federal guy at the bank with 20 employees.
$1 worth of actual value for $20 worth of T-bills.
Pretty skimpy “survival kit”. Just enough to last about a day.
Maybe they are anti-suicide kits.
As in, “If you commit suicide, we’ll use the kits to make it look like an accident.”
What? No armored vest?
Sometimes the simplest of answers may be the correct one.
Has anyone investigated whether these "survival kits" are being ordered from a company run by a relative of Harry Reid, Barack Obama, Dianne Feinstein, or their ilk?
One food bar won't get you far :)...seems like they are ordering "bug out" bags, not long term survival kits. Just enough stuff to get "out of Dodge" in case of a major event.
And not so much as derringer for self defense. I guess the whistle is supposed to summon help that cannot or will not come.
For some people, a lot. After all, they are the ones who've looted the national treasure, while lining their own pockets, all on the backs of working class middle America.
They knew this country, which refused to protect it's own sovereign borders, actually aiding and abetting lawlessness, while punishing the law abiding, would eventually spin out of control down range...
Like watching a train wreck...Bad mumbo up ahead.
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. Prolly was a line item added to an Omnibus bill. I'd love to see the paper trail and genealogy on this one.
