Why you should leave the city.

RE: Why you should leave the city.
I’m always pleased to leave a city even on the calmest of days. And although, I quite agree with those reasons for escaping the city, I find it a little hard to get my head around peoples plans that at the first sign of trouble, the thing to do is to head out into the back of beyond, build a hut in the woods and live it up Neolithic style.
I understand why people want to practise the skills to be able to do that… it’s important stuff to know… but should it really be plan A?

Cities are also where the hospital equipment is kept, where the latest news on the situation can be obtained… where you are most likely to find people with particular skills you may need… and so on.

I am not suggesting that one should remain in a city, I just feel one should be near enough to civilisation to make use of the good bits if need be. Neolithic man had a life expectancy of 20 years... and they were probably better at living off the land than the better prepared prepper.

And yes… I do like to make counter points in order to get a discussion going… Wink
