Dumpster Diving in NY - Are You Next?

If you don't think it can happen here, think again.  Be prepared for anything, or this will be you!

Remember it only takes 3 days for desperation to begin, and that's what we're seeing in NY.  I don't want to ever have to live like this.  I can deal with cleaning up a mess, but being hungry and cold is not an option. 

Being prepared is not as hard as trying to find food for you and your children after the fact.  This is a wake up call for those still sitting on the fence, thinking preppers are nuts.  Living like this would make me nuts.

  1. Me too Iz. I am much more prepared (I think) than 95% of the people I know and I am giving the other 5% the benefit of the doubt because we live on an island however this island is only a 20 minute drive and a 15 minute ferry ride from Seattle and has several stores so people here have that city mentality that they would just go to the store. The other two islands that I lived on were not like that because they were either without a store and dependent on a ferry to get to one or with a small store with a 45 minute ferry ride so a lot more isolated. My concern is how do you deal with those people personally when they are hungry, cold, and desperate. Even the government can't get supplies to them or manufacture shelter out of thin air. It takes time. This will surely eventually bite Obama in the butt even though he has committed to getting help to those people and if time allows the republicans will start flailing him with that.I would like to see what they would do since Bush didn't do a heck of a lot with Katrina. They are still with out down there.

    1. Only time will tell. I also think New Orleans has stayed the same all these years, because it's just easier. It's not that they didn't raise enough money, or get govt support. I have a good friend who lives there, and it is an attitude they have about everything. They are OK in squaler as long as they get their free cheese!
