I’m curious what moderate prepping is and I don’t know what those two promote, 1 year?

I think prepping and preppers are about all we have in America for Civil defense now, and that the more households with long term food stores then the more prepared we are as a nation for the big calamities.
The more tons of food scattered around America in closets and basements, the better for us as a nation, and people storing food also think about survival, which means more people who are ready to adapt to survival situations, and more prepared to be hands on with some of the tools of emergencies, like lighting, water filters, guns, hand tools, generators, wheat grinders and sleeping bags, solar, the more the merrier when it comes to the nuts and bolts stuff.

One percent of the population being preppers helps, 5% is better, 10%, 20%, the higher number of preppers then the better off the nation as a whole is for facing emergencies and also the bigger the voting constituency for politicians who support being prepared by the government returning to storing wheat, corn, hardening utilities, building nuclear shelters and so on.

We don’t have to prepare. We stocked up years ago and now its all sitting up at our rural compound. Mr. GG2 did an inventory the other day when he was up there doing repairs. I’d say we’re good to go for 6 months.
