These same idiots are still laughing at cryptocurrency even though I doubled my money in the last two weeks. Just ignore them and think about yourself and your family. Don't waste time on people who don't want to listen. Just keep preparing and making your life more independent and sustainable.
When the welfare runs dry because the dollar collapses nobody who prepared will even have to go to walmart or wade through looters and a martial law police state. It may take years to become self sufficient but its better than standing in a soup line to eat fluoridated soup that requires vaccination and a copy of the last W2 form.
