I wondered how long this would take,
when the “prepping” movement has gained so much steam these days.

They, the elitists, DON’T WANT YOU TO BE SELF-SUFFICIENT.
They want you dependent and controllable.

To paraphrase Ernest Hollings,
“Dere’s too much preppin’ goin’ on out dere...”

This week's "House" tv show featured a patient who had a secret stash of weapons for SHTF. The writers had the patient give up his guns and made a point that the one House has is bad, bad, bad. IOW, preppers are insane.
