[QUOTE="sureNsteady, post: 2902635, member: 24526"] It's called risk management, and it's not going away by a long shot. No one says you have have to live like the world is going to end, but it's still prudent to be prepared and have options. Some people have loads of insurance for every possible scenario, others have no insurance at all. Being a "prepper" means many things, but above all, if you prepare for serious SHTF scenarios, then you are covered for a multitude of "everyday" scenarios and/or natural disasters. Living off-grid, and being able to grow your own food, live without stores, shipping, dollars, etc. can prove to be beneficial in a multitude of ways, not just for when SHTF. You can cover quite a few scenarios by being prepared for the worst of them. It's the difference between those Katrina survivors stranded at the Superdome and the people who were prepared, ready and safe in Baton Rouge. (Also kind of like the difference between a 2A pro, concealed carrying, handgun trained, situationally aware Sheepdog and the rest of the unarmed Sheep*. The former is ready for anything, the latter is at the mercy of everything.) *These are the same people that empty the store shelves of bread and milk when the news tells us we are going to have a snow/ice event. As always YMMV. [/QUOTE]
