You did the right thing. We are preparing to flee to a rural retreat also. This thing is going to unwind at some point in the near future. Better to be prepared too soon than not soon enough. My personal guess is the govt will be able to keep it cobbled together for another 18-24 mos. After that I wouldn’t bet on it.
People that looked at us like we were nuts a couple of years ago are now stockpiling food and the where with all to protect it like there is no tomorrow.

That is one of the most telling signs, and I’ve experienced it too. I used to be a “lone nut”. Not any more. And around here, all the locals are talking about what’s happening in the same way I was talking about it five years ago.
It’s not a matter of “if”, but “when”. And even then, the “when” will be in a pretty narrow window. At the very latest, I would say some time within the next four years of Obama’s presidency.
