Preppers’ PING!!
1st Rule of Prep Club: You do not talk about Prep Club.
2nd Rule of Prep Club: You DO NOT talk about Prep Club.
3rd Rule of Prep Club: If someone says SHTF, do a shot.
4th Rule of Prep Club: No more than two people to a retreat; one must be a buxom blonde coed for repopulating the human race.
5th Rule of Prep Club: One BOL at a time.
6th Rule of Prep Club: No tie-dye shirts, no socks with sandals, no ponytails, no drum circles.
7th Rule of Prep Club: Prepping will go on as long as it has to.
8th Rule of Prep Club: If this is your first post to Prep Club, you HAVE to buy all other posters a shot.
Someone should write a book showing poor people how to prep with little or no money, especially now that the Obama economy have made us the majority.
While prepared, I feel many “preppers” fail to realize that there is no paper wealth.
The Fed is not actually printing currency.....it is all electronic.
This allows for shenanigans you cannot imagine. But it also avoids the inflationary spike of paper.
So, we see some inflation (caused by banks), but not the out of control inflation most expect.
I think we will see lots of control over this electronic money supply, but not a collapse as we envision it.
NOTE: I did not say no collapse.
Soul prepping is going to matter infinitely more.
I’ve never understood number 25. If you’re talking about consumer debt, sure. If you’re taking about fixed rate leverage supported by adequate liquidity, there’s no better way to grow your wealth during hyper inflation.
1. if you have supplies of any kind, competing military forces will want them.
2. If you are not part of and with a military there will be zero chance you will survive an attempt to resist one.
3. Ground penetrating radar will locate any underground facility with no problem. Most military forces will field these.
4. Going it alone only works if there is a scriptwriter making that happen.
I don’t think we have anything to worry about until our taxes are about 60 percent (Federal only) and then they SERIOUSLY run out of money. When every American pays taxes....only about 51 percent pay federal taxes today. We are not near the trouble YET. It is good to prepare anyway but their is still a ton of people not providing to the United States yet.
Had about 20 cans of spaghetti sauce that were WAY past expire date. In some cases, ten years!
So my project over the last couple days is to replace them... almost done!
Picked up about 30 lbs of other canned goods in the process.
And actually had spaghetti last nite, with home grown peppers, onions, and tomatoes I sauteed and added to the sauce. It was XLNT!!!!
Of course, they should just let the damned thing crash, and immediately restore constitutional government and sound money, so that most people, prepper and non-prepper alike, can swiftly get back on their feet without such a huge tax and regulatory burden in their way.
But they won’t.
"Failing to prepare, is preparing to fail."
