    Default which shtf are you preparing for?

    Just wondering what the general opinion is about which event you think is most likely.

    Short term natural disaster, like snowstorm that cuts power for weeks
    Nukes/terrorist attacks
    economic meltdown/dollar collapse
    global cooking, er, I mean warming, er, I mean climate change.
    Govt. clampdown on civilians
    meteor strike
    aliens from outer space attack
    Plague that wipes out large number of people

    I'm going to go with economic problems, maybe a collapse of the dollar down the road.

    Anything and everything I can think of except hurricanes and tsunamis. Oh, and subterranian crab people. I don't think there's any of those either.

    I'm mostly preparing for Tornadoes, hail, and expanding clay.

    Note to self, move #2 to the bottom of the list.........

    Mainly 7 day supply of food and water, then working on 1 month in the event of an unexpected crisis where a dash to Walmart would be riot!
    If it takes hot water to cook or comes out of a can and I don't have to hear my wife gripe about it I will stock it. Would not want to inconvenience her!

    Im ready for martial law, but i guess everything i have for that would cover a fallout too. I think something that most people are forgetting to get is real trip wire....

    self sufficiency. Not needing to leave home for 30 days is my goal.

    food/water/protection.

    I actually got some surplus tripwire, comes in green brown and brown-yellowish colors on a wood spool. You can make traps for rabbits with it, right? There's a lot of bunnies and those little fat birds on my property.

    im betting on economic collapse. (we are not far from it) if that happened, then people would literally turn into hungry zombies. Chances are, if your neighbor knows you have food, he will try to get it if his kids are hungry. people turn into wild animals when there is no order. prepare for 6 months if you can. get as much as you can today, because you might not be able to tomorrow.
