Anyone sane and solvent will have spent what they can prepping in the last year or two. Given that government turned genocidal, there is zero moral responsibility to pay taxes to fund your own demise. A jubilee surely has to happen, as if you protected yourself rather than paid to me murdered, these are odious debts?
My brother and I were having this conversation yesterday, I'd paid most of my credit cards off but I'm cautiously running them back up with prepping items, as he says when the internet goes down it will be too late to get this stuff, we may not be able to use cards in local shops, at some point everyone will have to stop paying their monthly bills, it's inevitable, and my 25yr old furniture business has maybe 6 months, feels like we've been stuck at the top of this roller coaster for ever.
