"Everyone has to decide in their own mind how much of their resources to dedicate to prepping."

Very true, but explain to me why those who do not prep are the first to tell those that do that they should share what they store? Didn't Paul write in 2 Thessalonians 3:10 :"For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat." So if a person has been exposed to the tenants of prepping and yet refuses to do the work why should they eat?

I have repeated warned many that there will will be people among us like MinuteGal who will want to punish them for being right and proving them wrong with their prepping, they will even go as far as blaming you for the troubles because in their twisted way of thinking your prepping brought the 'troubles'. Some of the 'it's God's will' crowd will want to see preppes punished as they will see them as trying to dodging God's punishment, even though they have no way to know the mind of God and can not tell if the trouble be man's folly or God's retribution. These righteous 'Christians' will be among the first to report preppers so they can make sure that they too suffer, what they see as the rightful wrath of God as if they know the Lord's mind.

As far as this being the beginning of the Great Tribulation that has been thought by many in past times and just as the Rapture itself no one knows. I can point out many times in man's history that times were worse.

If the start then so be it, but I repeat their have been plenty of times in history man has caused Tribulation like events which have no connection to the Rapture unless you consider the Tribulation started when Adam and Eve were forced from the garden, or when the Romans fed Christians to the lions, the beginning of WW I or maybe when the Nazis gas millions of Jews and so forth.

It's the Obama "social justice" & "wealth redistribution" mentality.

It's just not fair for you to have more than someone else.

The fact you worked hard, planned, set priorities, did without luxuries to obtain necessities is irrelevant.
