The truth is most of you don't have a clue how to take care of you and yours. I'm from the country, actually low mountains. We live with very little outside support all year, every year. We go to town when we want to not because we need to. We are not ignorant, backwards, or technologically stupid. I pump my water with windmills that I can rebuild myself when ever I need to. We have huge pantries full of veggies we grow and can ourselves. My barns and silos are full of feed for my animals. I have 5 years of wood split and stacked for heating and cooking. I have a ham radio that will be broadcasting long after the cell phones and the internet stops functioning.
My house is built with dual log walls with the space in between filled with insulation and cement. You do not own a firearm that will shoot through those walls. I own a safe full that will cover the cleared fields of fire in all directions. I can get from my house to my barns to the water and wood without ever exposing myself to the outside world.
We have all the conveniences of the outside world, are well educated, and our daily life trains to be totally self sufficient. I have enough solar panels and wind generators to keep the battery bank charged continuously. I have even engineered small turbines that fit inside the stove pipes on my wood stoves that power chargers for the winter months and long cold winter nights.
When the SHTF I will not be sharing or even tolerating outsiders on my property. I will use all force necessary to protect what is mine.
I can be had, killed, but those who finally manage it will be climbing over a lot of bodies to get to me. In the mean time I will be safe, warm and well fed. My big outside dogs and geese will give me ample warning when the morons from the cities get hungry enough to think they can take what is mine. You plan for it but those of us who will survive unharmed already live a life so self control and self dependence. Do not come here or the thousands of places like this. You will not be welcome or tolerated. You have nothing that I want. You have no skill set that I need. I'm ranch and farm raised, a retired ranger/military dog handler, a college trained gunsmith, a very good machinist and farm with teams of mules. I shoot long range comp and the only thing I feel when I pull the trigger is a little recoil.

Would you please adopt me....I’m old and don’t eat much but can shear a goat, skin it with an air compressor and am a retired nurse....:O)

Could you please elaborate further on this? Thanks.

Wow! You must have been at this for years! Impressive you are that independant. Thank God for the abilities you have to make this possible. But it must have cost you a mint to impliment all this. What would you say was your entire investment to secure yourself this way?
