I believe we all need to:

1) Have enough gasoline to travel to a safe area. A rural area with not many people on the government take and where everyone knows each other and they all own a gun. Plus the area has underground water and plenty of places to hunt and fish. The place where I grew up in Arkansas will be my intended destination.

2) Have weapons for protection while travelling.

3) Have enough food to get there and survive for six months.

4) Have enough gold and silver to start over in the “new” world.

I believe this is coming sooner than most of us think.

Excellent advice Terry! The only thing I would add is to buy your land before the crisis and stock it with hidden supplies.

Nebraska is hell stay away from Nebraska, move on nothing there. Its all Steven Spielberg’s “Children of the Corn” evil pure midwestern pale face on a pale horse evil.

You make it sound simple, but once you get into it it's *amazing* how complex it is to prepare to survive an extended disaster. And safe havens will be difficult to find as refugees leave cities en masse. I strongly recommend to anyone interested in Preparedness to read the book "How to Survive the End of the World as we Know It".
