Where will all the food/housing come from? We’ve read that the surplus food/grain the gov’t has is down to a low amount due to selling it overseas. Do they think there are gov’t warehouses full of food for just such a time? I think its pretty scary to think they can just sit back and wait for it to arrive. How long could they wait - days, weeks? What will they do in the meantime? It took a while for Katrina people to receive help and the same with the folks in Kentucky. If this were to happen nationwide all at once, I don’t think they can count on immediate assistance.

Also, I wouldn’t want to have to go into some kind of gov’t housing/camp situation - alot of people competing for food and housing. No thanks.

You thought of a good point, Marmolade. The fella I was talking to thought there'd be help in a financial way - but what if there are food shortages? That's actually pretty likely if supply lines break down and imports from overseas. I wonder just how much we produce here in the U.S.

hmmmmm, this makes preparedness even more crucial.
