You wake up, watch the news. The economy has fallen. WHAT DO YOU DO!?!?!

All kidding aside, this is my neighborhood every Saturday afternoon.

The store shelves are gutted, usually by groups of workers who have a heavy accent and travel in old school busses from the orange grove to a single house where they all live, and as for looters, I have stopped people stealing out of my yard three times in 5 years.

If this happened and was truly a SHTF, it isn't a huge change, more like a slight adjustment. Time to hunker down and work our plan. If things stay bad, then time to bug-out and work our other plan.

I would secure the house internally, doors, windows. Move furniture to barricade. Cars in the garage. Load the guns and watch for looters. We will hunker down well fed, well clothed, warm, relatively safe. Keep the radio on for news if T.V. and electric aren't working.

Yea bug in plenty of supplies and water. The 4 us would grab 8 guns or more and pass the ammo. We are there already.
