[QUOTE="rolf, post: 7278, member: 48"] [b]Supply checklist[/b] Correct. Interdependance is a good thing. Independance is also simultaneously a good thing. I dont think everyone needs to be prepared to live for a year in the woods with a pocketknife and twine, but making some moves towards self-reliance is a positive goal. For example, last year the area I live in had some bad storms. Power was out for several days here. A friend on mine a few miles away lost power for 2 weeks, and they also lost water for 2 weeks because they were on a well-water system with no backup power. Now, there wasn't really a lot of danger, because we could rely on getting food & water at stores several miles away that still had power and refridgeration, and emergency services, etc. But it was a hassle, and I was glad I could use my little wood powered burner for grilled cheese, soups, and other warm meals and not have to drive 20 miles to find an open restaurant. Another example. the hurricane. People are getting help from the National Gaurd, but the National Gaurd simply cannot help Everyone. People are turning to each other for help. Consider that every person that now needing assistance and alternatives is a drain on services and a burden to support. Now consider other people that did not need any extra help, and rather than cause a burden on a support system, could even provide their own tiny support system for other people. And now ask yourself which group you want to be in. Whether its natural disasters, scary people with bombs, or whatever, I think everyone here agrees that its prudent to be able to be a provider for something, and not a consumer of everything. The more steps each of us takes to be able to provide at least one of the basic neccessities of life, (food, water, shelter, energy) the more interdependant and safer our lives become. [/QUOTE]
