Right now even the ‘gold bugs’ are telling their followers...
BUY FOOD, STOCK UP A YEAR’S WORTH OF FOOD.

Even the Economic Ninja said if you cannot afford a Berkey, buy a Sawyer. Have something. Interesting as these guys are not really “preppers.”

They understand that the “3 days of food at the grocery” may not last long if/when truckers quit showing up. Water is similar whether you depend on bottled, pumped in, or a water well. The last 2 require electricity to not be or become “3rd world class”.
Amazing how most of America never learned from 2001, 2008, 2020...

Business groups demand Biden administration intervene to prevent any work stoppage on West Coast ports
With the contract between over 22,000 West Coast dockworkers and the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) set to expire in three weeks, the Biden government, in coordination with the PMA and International Longshore and Warehouse Union (ILWU), is conspiring to prevent a strike and to force through a sell-out contract.
Terrified at the prospect of a dockworkers strike shutting down large sections of US supply chains, a group of large business associations led by the US Chamber of Commerce wrote a letter on June 8 to President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, demanding the White House “engage in the negotiations” in order to ensure “backups, delays, and inflationary costs are avoided.”
The letter warns that, “...even a relatively brief port slowdown or shutdown would compound current supply chain challenges and cause long-lasting damage to consumer confidence and American businesses.”
Signatories of the letter included the Retail Industry Leaders Association, which represents brands such as Target, Lowe’s, Best Buy and Walgreens, the American Apparel Footwear Association and the Travel Goods Association.
