RE: So What does Your Other Half Think?
My wife canot stand the Armageddon / Mayan Callender / Global apocalypse stuff it drives her mad, but prepping for winter storms, unemployment, rampant socialists, industrial action, drought, flood, shortages caused by speculators or climate, gang crime,terrorism,riots, ethnic unrest, social collapse and she is totally for prepping. She like I are both products of run down council estates and the welfare state mentality that keeps them ran down.
Our grand parents were preppers by defaukt they set aside stuff they grew etc during the summer to help feed us through the winter, I can remember my nan saying she always gets an extra 4 bags of coal in after the winter of 64 when no coal wagons reached us for weeks.
Today I see the just in time logistics systems used by the supermarkets, industry etc and I see a very delicate, very complicated and very vulnerable supply system ust waiting to fall down. I see Yank , Russian, Indian, Aussie grain harvests decimated this year AGAIN.
I see the welfare dependant screaming they want more and more from the tax paying workers. I see a police for totally discredited and NHS not fit for purpose, a parliament of three partys none of which serve the nation.
I see trouble ahead and unlike some who think the tax payer, rich, council, charities etc should care for them i see it as my duty to protect my own family.
