You still have time, not ample time but I looked out the window and
things look normal. Right now, I could go off the supply chain for
three months. I'm still in the mode of buying double or triple
quantities of items on sale.
My concern is the infrastructure collapse, if civilization stays up,
this will be easy. If it goes Infomagic, we're all in a world of hurt
and I'll be hunkered down in a pit covered by 6x6 pressure
treated, watching PIR readouts. ... deer, fox,
What I don't know is whether this will go Infomagic... it looks like the
future is balanced on a knife edge and could tip either way.
I'm trying hard to push it to the safe-side. Asking, begging people to
investigate their situation, get smart, and be ready for whatever hand
the world deals you.
Others, ko-skin-em, are setting people up for a panic. Right now, the
stores are full of cheap supplies, not just food, they're stocked to
overflowing with fuel, generators, solar panels, clothing, boots, you
name it, it's there. At some point, the general awareness will tip over
and a Y2K buying panic could set in. The closer it happens to New
Year's Evil, the worse it will be.
That panic is just the first stage. If system failures occur, people
lose their jobs and any hope of the future; we'll be on the cascade
down. A future WRP will cover an infrastructure failure that's
happening right now. It's not Y2K but it's instructive and a metaphor
for this kind of tar pit trap.
