It's not even about the government taking over. It's about natural disasters. It's about power grid failures. It's about food shortages (which are coming). It's about being prepared for all the things that have already happened over and over and over again in one place of the world or another.

When disaster strikes, whatever that disaster may be, those who ridicule the people who are prepared for it, even if that preparation is only slight, are going to be the ones dependent on the government that may not help them and the very people who they ridiculed for trying to be prepared.

To anyone who ridicules a prepper of any kind, let me ask you this one question: If your power grid went down right now, for whatever reason, and stayed down for just two weeks, how well would you get by for those two weeks? What if it was two months? Do you have enough food and water to last two weeks? Could you defend your home from others who are hungry or are looting?
