Having lived through very hard times, I can guarantee you that I don't like having to do it. I can do it, and have, but you are full of crap that anyone wants it to happen.
It's like saying someone that has a lifestyle of buying house insurance is secretly hoping their house burns down. Horsecrap.

No, it’s more like being a big advocate of house insurance and having a neighbor who refuses to buy house insurance and who makes it clear that he thinks you’re nuts for buying it, so you secretly fume and hope his house burns down.
Except of course that prepping for TSHTF isn’t anywhere near as reasonable as having house insurance.
