re: Are you a prepper?

The main problem with prepping is that people are doing it mostly alone, house by house. Preppers are vastly outnumbered by those who are addicted to having their every need just a grocery store, hospital, or public utility away. I've spoken to many thousands about the need for neighborhood prepping. A single home is a target during a catastrophe but a well-prepared neighborhood is a fortress that can defend its resources. Practically speaking, the American public has no interest in planning ahead for a disaster. They are so imbued with the sense that big government will take care of them, they actually resent being told that, given a scenario involving rowboat economics, they will have to care for themselves.
