Prepping always been about learning to survive a downgraded life where the amenities and constants of modern life are no longer there. Normally that would mean a weather event, natural disaster, unseen economic crash and yes, nuclear war.
Now it means being downgraded by a combination of BIG business and our own nation’s government. They both love the China model now. We have Fascism trying to convert things to Communism of the China variety.
Along with that, the wealthy people think that earth’s resources are finite and want to make sure they and theirs that follow, get them. They think there’s too many little useless people using those resources that their descendants should have.
Then we have the humanists that think humans and tech can be melded together to make super humans. I’m sure they’ll find someone to test it on before they do it to themselves.
All of the above agree on one thing. The little people must be pushed downward, possibly into the ground.
BTTT!
“Lived in Florida in the early 60’s. NO ONE had AC. And, since it was FL, central heat in the winter was called long pants & a sweater...”
You make a very important point with location. If you can’t take heat, being prepared means moving to a higher cooler location. The opposite if you can’t handle the cold... A moderate microclimate is best where it can be found, not too hot and not too cold.
It might take a couple years to fully adapt, but one’s body will indeed acclimate to the winter/summer temperature changes once you do go without modern climate control for awhile. We found this when we moved off grid...
You are assuming that nothing will break and need replacement parts that will not be available. It doesn’t work this way. I have had lightning EMP ruin brand new inverters in the box not even hooked up just because it hit too close. Reality is the more moving parts the higher chance of failure. In which case it is then all just boat anchors. Then you are right back to zero anyhow.
Reducing dependency and learning to live minimal is the smarter option in the long run. Been there...

That really is a good price on the pallets of panels!
Thanks!
A symptom of 4 years of a fake president trying to destroy this nation.
The elites have a plan to survive a nuclear war.
It is not a perfect plan, but it is a plan.
The keyword is DUMB.

The current locations are obviously secret—but we know that is the way they think because of the existence of this defunct place:

It is now a tourist attraction.
