I am asking what people specifically did to prepare. Not whether they should or shouldn;t or even wait for the gummint to give them free cell phones or food stamps...

food stamps with wasabi.... yummmm....

There is always one of those. I hope it is not one of my neighbors.

One item that many people don't fully understand is the role of a fiat world currency. All fiat currencies come to an end. Sadly, many believe this time will be different. What will be different? This is the first time we have had a world fiat currency unpegged from any commodity basis.

There is a piece of paper in our possession we call a dollar. If your lucky you would have at least a piece of paper rather than a digital ledger. That piece of paper (and clothe) has a value. The value of a piece of paper. LOL. People are totally clueless.

Have been prepping for almost 14 years. Doing inventory and fuel cycling. There is very little else to do at this point. I guess I am at the pipe tobacco and wine cellar stocking. Also, paying special attention to my home maintenance. Upgrade what I can for the seven (7) year crisis in our future.

Finally I am watching Europe and China. My retirement investments are tied up in commodities right now. That could change quickly depending on what happens. Minimally, inflation and deflation are in our future. How far off they put with digital printing is anyones guess.

If the gummint checks stop flowing, it’s lights out.

And I am sure the gummint knows that, and therefore will keep them going as long as possible, no matter what.

What that means for the workers in the country and the rest of the economy, I’m not sure.

I have been dry canning things like cornmeal, bread flour, pasta, and dehydrated foods. We are giving our son ammo for his birthday present; I will be canning pinto beans over the next two weeks, along with a turkey we have in the freezer. I have accumulated a lot of great first aid supplies that I am putting into various first aid kits for all of the cars of all of the family members. Each week I teach a Bible study and the ladies in it are scheduling a prayer vigil for the Monday before the election. I am planning Christmas gifts around the preparedness theme. We are headed to a gun show in two weeks to see what we can buy there. I sense the need to move quickly now.
