If it is true that supply lines are collapsing, then obtaining necessities may come closer to home. My town of Marion Ohio, with a fairly stable population of about 35k people, used to be more more industrialized. There was a factory to make pianos, steam engine powered tractor makers, small metal refiners, at one time there was a car factory, all at the turn of the 20th century.

Even packaging, may be done more and more by cottage industries.
