Hey...I can't remember if I told you this, but Sweetie went to the local mill where we show up every couple of months for wheat berries (cause we mill our own flour), and they wouldn't sell her the usual "load". They would only sell her about half of what she wanted. It made us just a bit nervous to say the least. They didn't have a good reason as to why the shortage....and this is in "NowheresVille" here in NC....it's a little small place. They simply told her that there was a wheat shortage.
Something is going on...people are anticipating it, and we're seeing the beginnings of it. Those who are NOT preparing are accusing those (such as you and I) of hoarding, and being "survivalists".... to these I say "WHATEVER!"
The bottom line is that (as with you) we've been canning and storing and putting up food for a long time. Our grandparents did it, and our parents did it...and to be honest with you, if I don't have six months MINIMUM of canned goods put up, I feel "insufficient"!
I think we piss people off with this attitude. Too many people subscribe to the "instant gratification theory" and couldn't afford to put up six months worth of food until they paid off a couple of credit cards. Even IF they managed to put the food up, they would be the types that couldn't stay out of the canned peaches! You know the type. :-)
Oh well...the bottom line is that we're not doing anything different than we've ever done. We're probably keeping just a tad more food and ammo. But that's about it.

Then why are you so upset that other people would keep a "full pantry" on news of a food shortage? And then belittle the shortage?
You don't make much sense for a person who has ties to the Great Depression and is still protecting yourself from those days.
