>the grid goes down for longer than a month a lot of us are dying regardless of how we prepare. This. When trying to make provisions for even modest disruptions, you quickly realize how herculean a task it is to be truly prepared. Unless you're already a self-sustaining farmer with a well/water source and other resources or (ideally) billionare-bunker capable, you can see how prepper-ism becomes a lifestyle beyond prepping for a relatively short period. Making a choice between living life as it currently is and being prepared to survive indefinitely is a hard fork in the road.
