I don't think the madness will lead to lack of power and water.

It would lead to lack of food only because you would not have enough cash to keep up with inflation.

The real problem is how to keep something that is trade-able for your needs.

Water and electricity would only be unavailable if you could not pay for it. You will be in big trouble before you reach that stage.

HR875 is aimed a criminalizing your ability to be self sufficient in producing your own food. The Marxists are pressing us towards Zimbabwe. Currency devaluation and crushing regulations to make life unbearable.
