I have seen “The Shelter” numerous times but since you posted it, I watched it again.

Friends turned on each other within minutes since one had a shelter and the rest didn't. The friends fought each other, blows were even exchanged, because they all wanted in the shelter that wouldn't hold them all. And, they all blamed the doctor for not saving them, not letting them in the shelter.

That is how it will be in an extended emergency. Panic starts immediately when the emergency is known. The moral of this story is, if your neighbors know what you have, they will want it and take any means to get it. The doctor didn't have a gun so he couldn't protect his family and their water/food storage. The door to his shelter wasn't strong enough and the neighbors broke it down. In that story, you can bet the doctor got a reinforced door after that happened.

Will the neighbors, who all seem to have money, build a shelter in their home after this scare?

Somewhere in the last month, I read that 1% of our population are preppers. The other 99% will want what you have. For me, I have divorced the government, political parties and those who refuse to prep. Poor people can store water and food of some kind. I don't agree with anyone who says he/she can do absolutely nothing.
