World Going to Hell in a Hand Basket

World Going to Hell in a Hand Basket

And you thought everything was going well.

Like everyone else three weeks ago I was pretty oblivious to the rising tensions on the world stage.

Where to start? Russia/Ukraine? Evergrande? NK lobbing missiles twice a week? China closing its borders off? China emplacing terminator robots on its border with India? AI emerging any day now and deciding humanity was a great experiment but its done with us now? Impending doom from a supply shortage because truckers have to quarantine after crossing the border? Turkey's fuel oil shortages? Stock market collapse? Etc Etc.


All of these things in and of themselves are horrible to contemplate. Taken together its kind of hard to maintain mental calm. I realize focusing on this stuff leads to nothing good. There isn't much we can do except prepare for a short term (< 3 month) shortage. Realistically if there comes a time when you need your emergency food - you're gonna need a lot more than that. Many people can't or don't own 2nd amendment gear for good reason. 

When the need comes to eat your emergency food I feel like there's just gonna be a lot of other stuff to worry about like not getting shot by my neighbors or someone down the road.
