There are several hurdles a prepper must overcome. Space and storage, as well as the conditions in the storage areas must be taken into account by the nature of what’s being stored. These days, we have companies who have prepared “Prepper Packages” of canned foods and other items (meals ready to eat) needed during times where there is no electric, no gas service, and, like me, the water will flow, but will not be fully uncontaminated. To what degree it becomes impossible to get water that is, or can be made to be, potable has to be guessed at. BUT – even so, the water service that comes into a home my stop entirely if it becomes badly contaminated. These important necessities can be provided for, or in my case, I may be able to haul water. I would need to drive to a source, collect it, and purify it at home.
Getting the basics is also a political poke at those in need. We had a secure source of oil and gas B.B. (Before JB), but the source has been cut off in this administration. You take the gas away, most of us do not have a member of the family that can haul water for as far as I would have to go to get it. Without a car, and gas, there’s no way to make that trip for my immediate family. Thus, someone would have to get a small community together to gather such things. There would need to be ground rules that everyone contributes in some way – for instance, if four men go out on two trucks, then some folks would have to do other things, from watching kids and keeping them busy and moving, to preparing meals. Preparing meals may be a big deal if there’s no way to do so in large batches, so a group may need several ‘cooks’ to get it done.
We are being targeted; prepared, manipulated, with a plan put in place that will close on us like a bear trap before we hear the click of the pan to spring the jaws.
