Getting prepared, above anything, is a state of mind. As humans we subconsciously know that something is going on here, and most of us are aware of the current state of the economy, and the imminent collapse of the FIAT money supply we use around the world. Those who are new to this, should read The Creature from Jeckyll Island, a book about the federal reserve. It’s a shocking start.
But this…is… about more than that. Any conscious prepper is well aware that you cannot prepare for what you cannot see, you can only try and cover what you can afford and make simple modifications to your way of living to increase your chances of making it through a disaster.

Katrina and others have shown us that even a local event can create havoc and people go crazy. Having defense is staying at home. If you have to go out looking for something for your family to eat, it might be too late already.
My reason for coming here is to find folks who are serious about preparedness, and they are in no short supply around this forum 
I have basic preparations, but any local “guru” prepper who has some extra ideas or supplies, I would love to chat. I am hardworking, intelligent, a great carpenter. I am ready to build or rebuild whatever I need to secure my family. I have contacts local with a farm, animals, water supply and hunting available. I started a page on facebook called “Pacific NW Preppers co-op” and hope to attract those who are unaware. I care about my friends and community, and want to see it survive whatever comes. Anyone who has an idea of how I can get on the right track with local folks I would be obliged.
Thank you-
