Don’t forget to have desks strategically placed to quickly hide under.

Survivalism almost always gets it wrong.

All such prepping always takes place with a presumed period of time before RTN — return to normal — being days or weeks. If someone talks months, they are called extreme.

How about years, or decades, or forever? How do they prep for that? Here is what happens when oil stops flowing.

The trucks stop delivering. Their drivers leave the job to try to help their families. The cities will have a population of maybe 90% who decide to stay put and wait for government to solve the problem. Rumors will fly because there will be no electricity for internet or media.

10% — the remaining 10% — are the 10% who are smartest and have the most gumption. They are leaving after a week or two, flowing out from the cities, looking for places to loot, food to steal. Europe has fewer guns, but those that are there will be in the hands of this 10% who are the brightest, toughest and most determined. They will take what they didn’t store.

Let’s see her fit that in her 72 hour bugout bag.
