Despair As Collapse Accelerates: “My Shotgun is Full I Hope I Don’t Need to Use It.”
SHTF Plan ^ | 6/6/12 | Mac Slavo

Posted on 06/06/2012 4:41:35 PM PDT by Kartographer

Our long time friend and regular contributor Manos has been keeping us abreast of the day-to-day goings on in Greece for the better part of three years. Suffice it to say, it’s getting worse with very little hope of resolution to the economic and political woes facing the country, as well as its European neighbors.

The following is a first person perspective of the realities on the ground, and what it looks like in the midst of a truly frightening economic collapse that threatens to not only wipe out the financial wealth and life savings of an entire nation, but may potentially lead to a breakdown in the rule of law and civil war between extreme political factions trying to fill the vacuum of power.

This is real, it’s happening right now, and it’s coming to America in due time.

If the situation degenerates too badly, there will be a mass exodus, until other countries close their borders.

Britain, for one, has already run exercises in shutting down their ports/borders, from what I have read.

If you're in the Eurozone, you can easily cross borders - just show up - with a bowl in your hands a la "Oliver".

If this is where you got them...those are some real good prices. They look like the ones I've gotten from the other site for years.

Your Preparedness Manual was downloaded over 1000 times last month.

I had no idea.

Yep. That’s where I got them. Like I said, better than on time and exactly as advertised.

If you need more I can recommend them highly.

Here’s what I bought, in no particular order:

Amoxicillin, 250 mg.
Ampicillin, 250 mg.
Doxycycline, 100 mg.
Ciprofloxacin, 250mg
Cephalaxin, 250 mg.
Penicillin, 250 mg.
Erythromycin, 5 grams in powder form.

I did a lot of research on dosage for humans and I’m pretty sure I have enough for at least 3 courses of treatment of each drug for each member of my family.

This is what I think appropriate for my family in our situation. Yours can and probably will be completely different from mine. I most fervently hope I never need to use this stuff.

You have the right one. My first post was incorrect. I apologize for your wasted time.

"Yep. That’s where I got them. Like I said, better than on time and exactly as advertised. "

Thanks.

I was always satisfied with quality, delivery and etc from CalVet Supply where I have always gotten mine.

The price difference is enough to make me reconsider though.

Your family list is very similar to mine.

I've bought some extra for barter too. They're in the refigerator out back in the shed.

You are correct. The error is mine...

No problemo. I googled and found the link. Thanks for listing it. I thought that in these controlled, degenerate times most veterinary supplies were cut off from us by the need for prescriptions. The antibiotic powder jars look like particularly good bargains for putting in cold storage.

Thanks so much for posting that fish place. I've been trying to find Cipro as I'm very allergic to Penicillin and it's derivatives and haven't been able to find Cipro. This place has it and I ordered it right now.

"...overwhelmed with where to begin."

Lots of lists available on the net, but to me, first steps are water, more water, food, more water, more food, firearms & lots of ammo, alternative fuel source for cooking (extra propane tanks, coleman fuel).

Remember you need water for just about everything (drinking, cleaning up, toilets, etc.). Paper/plastic wear will save water (don't have to wash dishes). TONS of info on the net, not just on FR. Best wishes, hopefully we won't need any of this stuff.
