[QUOTE="Okieprepper, post: 3901996, member: 11631"] Now that the depression era folks are gone, it seems that complacency is the pulse and temperature of the masses. As stated by Timmy59, 10% are currently preppers, but how many are actually "ready-set-prepared". So, 331.900,000 million US citizens x 10% = 33,190,000 who are said to be prepping or prepared for SHTF. 33-million sounds like a lot to me. From my discussions of late with family, friends and coworkers, I doubt that 10% are prepping beyond a couple extra rolls of TP and a box of bullets. I'd say 2-3% is about right...still. Happy to admit it if I'm wrong, but I just don't see the respected practice of preparedness in the variety of generational and social groups I'm associated with. I did read in Life magazine that Chicken-Little past-away a few years ago from an aggressive case of stage 4 complacent-brain-cancer after his psychotherapist recommended he watch The View in the mornings to curb is anxieties about the sky. See what can happen to ya. Nothin' to see here...:anyone: [/QUOTE]
