I get that. I grow enough tomatoes to get us through the year, so I really don’t need to stock up. But I do it for the “what if” factor.
I prep because i believe we have a group of globalists who want to control everything, include what we eat. Gates and China own most of the farmland in America. The folks at WEF want us to eat bugs. Look what is happening to farmers in other countries who are selling out to government. I am not worried about tornadoes (or Y2K) but I am very concerned about those clamoring for power, who want to decide who gets to eat and what, because he who controls the food controls the people.
That’s my motivation anyway. YMMV
You are probably young enough that is a possibility in your life time. I don’t have many years left so I don’t worry about it.
How about eating the WEF? Betcha they’re gamey and stringy. Stock bbq sauce to cover the taste.

Very very well put, that’s me as well.
And I think the first thing they will do is make food scarce. Hungry people are more controllable. And then after that they are willing to eat bugs.
