Can You Contend With Shortages?

By Richlion

Can you contend with shortages? If you supplied with all the necessities of life for a year, you might answer 'yes'. But do you have enough money and space for a year's supply?

What if you do have enough. Can you protect it against criminals or just plain hungry people who need food? Can you protect what you've got from the police? What about from roving gangs? What about a street full of hungry neighbors?

The answer is that you will not be able to do so. All the saving, the storing and the cost of the food would go to those who have the power to take it from you. Sure, you might have guns, but how can you protect what you have when you have to go out of the house? What happens when you go to work, go shopping or visiting a family member?

If the police raid your place – for whatever reason – what are you gong to do with 15 SWAT police members there?

If the situation gets so bad that there is little food in the area, and you look like you are well fed but your neighbors are thin and hungry. It takes very little common sense for them to know you have plenty of food somewhere. How will you defend yourself then?

When people travel in groups like locusts looking for food, they will eventually go to the rural areas (where you thought you'd be safe) and they will take what they want.

How can you really be safe anywhere in a country where there is famine and a breakdown in civilization. You can't. So, what is the solution?

You have to move to a country that isn't experiencing such problems. Only when your neighbors have enough food would you be safe. And if you look at the fall of the dollar, the lack of production in the US, there is trouble. When you have a nation where its so far in debt that other nations are not going to lend to it any more and wants payment on what they are lent out – that spells huge problems for the farmers. No food is being produced and no food is being imported.

I hope I'm wrong, but it looks like I'm not. So, the only way to really prepare is to move abroad.

The nation might be poorer, but if they can at least feed itself, that means you can feed yourself, too.
