Here is a very short article on what you will need to try to survive the coming end of America. This is based on a book written by someone who survived in Argentina.

We are already seeing this in America as the middle class is rapidly shrinking. People have lots of false hopes but the sinking will continue. The time to start prepearing is now because gas may go to $6 soon.

“We are already seeing this in America as the middle class is rapidly shrinking. People have lots of false hopes but the sinking will continue. The time to start prepearing is now because gas may go to $6 soon.”

Ferfal is a FReeper - he’s out there somewhere.

Anyway, gas just went up 9 cents on Friday, so it is beginning. This stuff in the Middle East is a NIGHTMARE. Tomorrow morning I top off my fuel supplies and food. Things will soon get MUCH WORSE.

End hell.

Texas will refuse to participate. We could if we choose be totally self-sufficient as a state.

I want none of that, but I want the Commie scum trying to destroy us, removed, charged, tried, convicted and sentenced.

The sooner the better.

There’s a good documentary on the Argentina economic collapse on YouTube. Part One is at:

I saw Ferfal’s blog before - it is excellent. Full of useful tips. For example - people buy gold, but how is gold bar going to help you when SHTF? Better to have small pieces, like links on a necklace, that are more easily used as cash

Thanks for reposting it.

I’m sure most people reading this thread already know, but for those who don’t know, I suggest you Google this: WTSHTF.

It will open your eyes.

FerFAL is a good guy. I've interacted with him. He knows his stuff.

Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

For some reason the Moderator deleted my post with a link to my FREE Preparedness Manual. Anyone interested can FReep Mail me for the link.

We went to a Oath Keepers meeting last night, and the founder Stuart Rhodes spoke. He said it’s not IF a collapse is coming, but WHEN. Ferfal is right when he says the first step is to mentally accept that it can, and will, happen. I have family members who scoff and say, “People have been saying this kind of thing for years.” Which is true, AND they were right! It’s just taken a while for all of the horrifically bad government fiscal policies to catch up with us, and soon we’ll be cornered with nowhere else to go.

no matter how much mindset you have a person with 100 pounds overweight and no physical conditioning whatsoever is not going to walk 50 miles cross-country during extreme cold weather.

Doesn't matter how conditioned one is, what will he do when he gets to the 50 mile mark - that is if he can even get past the government guns and zombies? Best to stay home.

For those interesting in an ongoing survival thread, here's a great one. Lots to read and lots of info on prepping, food storage, food preparation, gardening, building, and news stories. And lots of great Freepers willing to share their expertise.
