Pretty ugly stats on the state of preparedness ping
Liberals/democrats trust government and the politicians and gov bureaucrats. Wtf is wrong with you ,you stupid liberals , why do you trust government?
55% of people are deluded into thinking the government gives a hoot about them. 45% of the people just went to check their “stuff.” ;)

DUMBA$$E$!! $15 Trillion in debt isn't a disaster? 14% unemployment (the real number before Washington's manipulation) isn't a disaster? Huge future tax increases aren't a disaster? A government that consistently and monsterously lies to us isn't a disaster? Folks...we are already there, but far too many are too stupid to realize it!!
55% of the country is screwed should the SHTF..
wonder how many have any cash/gold/silver on hand should things really get bad...
I have no problem believing that during a disaster our levels of government will help me.
I’m just not going to make that Plan A!
I am certain the government will be delighted to take care of me.
As long as “taking care of me” involves a trench and a bulldozer.
Take “If Disaster Strikes” out of the headline and you get a more acurate statement. Way too many Americans are adult children who want a Mommy & Daddy Government to take care of them so they don’t have to support themselves or prepare for emergencies. A nation of sheep who sit passively with their hands out if a terrorist strikes or if a natural disaster strikes or if they haven’t prepared for their retirement or pretty much anything else. The Welfare State has destroyed self-sufficiency in this country.
I went through Hurricane Katrina in Biloxi, Mississippi. The first people to show up were the Salvation Army, Red Cross and the tree trimming scammers from Florida (who charged $5,000+ per home) and later Baptist and Catholic Charities, etc. The National Guard were much later and only had water and ice. Later, other church and similar groups appeared. Government took weeks and months.
I'm guessing that coincides with the percentage of people who believe 0bama will pay their utility bills, and the percentage that are total MORONS.
I hate to say it, but when TSHTF for real. . . this will be a good thing, in the long term view. The gene pool NEEDS some chlorine every now and then. . . .
Mind you, it’s going to severely suck for those who WERE prepared, if they’re living in the middle of a bunch of grasshoppers. . . .
I believe the government will take care of us.Like they would take care of any problem.
They haven't invested billions in concentration camps, guns and ammunition for nothing.
I believe the Gov’t will take care of itself first.
The Chaos will be murderous, literally. The police will be home protecting
their families first.
I have such confidence in the government that I have a closet full of canned goods, a couple of hundred pounds of rice, pounds of salt and sugar, a safe full of guns and ammo, etc, etc. I am also on my last week of EMT school because I know the governemnt will be there if someone close to me has a medical problem during a catastrophe.
“”All is well”, trust your gov’t.”
All is well, I trust God, and he says ‘Be Prepared’.
The standards here are appallingly low. This is not formal prepping, it’s basic life management. A first-aid kit in the home, at least some emergency supplies, a 3 day supply of nonperishable food and water in their homes? I had all three literally on the day I moved into my first shared apartment with a roommate - just in case of snow, storms, or other unexpected problems.
