Normally I'm a rock solid "down the middle" guy. But info on the front lines says: Maaaybe, if a person was so inclined, a smart bet might be to be 100% prepared for something that looks a lot like Italy in our future. Maaaybe have 3-4 months food or more. Maaaybe we'll have 99.00% lock down enforced by law enforcement, and or national guard. This, in it's best case is looking to be a life changer. With 18 months of major disruption, years of waves, with many years of 1929ish recovery.
Your millage may vary, batteries not included, and for God's sake party on dudes.
