Start working on your community and learn to barter!!!!!!!
We all should be prepared for life's ups and downs. Over the next two weeks if Greece doesn't get settled into a structured default on their debt it'll get bumpy everywhere!
But, storing food and supplies and learning to make your own are only part of the solution. Barter, barter barter and work on establishing a group of other people you can count on in a pinch. I have made a network of friends who are willing to exchange goods without green notes from the Fed.
But, after I watched what happened in other countries whose economies and governments fell I realized it would be just as handy to know more about IT as about raising food. Good IT people bypassed government systems and invented new ones in the span of hours. That was very cool.
I don;t think it's going down in the next two weeks or in a crunch style like in Rawles' Patriots. But, we're setting up to repeat what happened in the great depression - crash in 29 followed by stimulus spending followed by easing off of stimulus spending and restrictions followed by much deeper crash (that no one talks about) in 32. We're right on schedule.
