If found in a situation where one was forced to take arms against tyranny, I hope one thinks in the long haul version. How would one grow food, aquire necessary equipment, tools ect. in order to carry on a fight and to ultimatly start over.
Now, if one percieved a storm coming would a wise person study survival gardening, then make sure they are able to actually do it.
OR, if a person already knows how to garden wouldn't it be easier to plant certain foods (onions, garlic, spearmint, peppermint ect) in their AO. Not only would that person have edible items, but also medicinal items as well.
Also by doing something of the like, it would attract animals to the area.
Run a test to see how you fair. But, you will have to make some changes for the test.
Change 1: Remove Power Meter from the meter base. Now go hide the meter so nobody can find it. You must forget where it is during the test also.
Change 2: You can no longer buy gasoline, LP Gas, food, equipment, spare parts, oil, or anything else at a "Store" or “Business”. You can buy stuff from an individual, but only if the individual is actually participating in the test with you.
Change 3: If you have community water, turn it off and don't turn it back on during the test.
Change 4: You will look at and act as if all other persons are doing the test with you.
After you have done these things, go get in your recliner or favorite chair and ask yourself, "How will I live and survive now?"
If one has never been in a "worst case scenario" then one has no clue about surviving. All a book does is give you ideas on how to survive, but can you actually do it. That is the big question.
