Are you ready?

Looking at the way the world is now and the state of things I was just wondering...are you prepared?

The American economy is currently in the pisser. Jobs are being lost all over the country and money is running out quicker than most people anticipated. By 2014 the country's debt will be due in several major industries. Just to pay the interest on the debt our taxes would have to be doubled.
Our President so far has only entertained bad ideas that will increase our taxes and do nothing to paying off this debt. What will you do when this debt is called? People will lose more and more jobs. Socio-economic breakdown will ensure. What will you do? Will you hope that the government can fix the situation? If so then you will be waiting a long time. The incompetence through which the government operates will do nothing for you!
Your best bet is to start making preparations so that you and your loved ones can make it. For starters at the least you should stock up one warm clothes and sleeping bags, because when the money goes, so do the utilities. You need to start thinking of food and water. Canned foods are a great place to start but even those have limited life spans. My reccomendations is to start learing how to garden and grow your own food. Start learning the ins and outs of hunting. If you live in a major metropolitan area like I do, I would suggest getting an accurate and powerful air rifle. The pellets are cheap and you can feed yourself and family off of small game all year long if you learn how to do so. I have a Gamo Shadow air rifle that shoots 1000fps and is accurate to boot. I have taken both rabbits and squirrels with it.
I know that some people will probably read this and call me paranoid. But I would rather be paranoid and wrong, than be right and totally unprepared. I'll be back with more info later
