Interesting?
No, not quite – I said I do not want/expect any help from the US Government, State of Missouri, the County, or nor any of their contracted
representatives or organizations. Likewise, I want no help or assistance from any United Nations force, or any foreign governments or their
contracted representatives.
I will stay with my farm, my animals and home to take care of the problem best I can with my neighbors as we have already arranged. I’ll take care
of my family and likely a good many more around me by using a barter system and fair trade. I don’t expect an evacuation or rescue – I won’t
comply anyway;
As I want nothing from them they are entitled to nothing from then - they are entitled to nothing from me.

However, as with this poster – I fear the government taking what I have stockpiled and ruining my plans for survival in one fell swoop by taking my
3 years of food and goods for the “good of the people”. Great plan to take my 3 years of supplies so that the idiots in the city can all live for
another 3 days…
Then we can all suffer and starve equally – it is the American way now right? No winners, no losers, no valadictorians, no failures, just all
getting along equally sharing the wealth...
I say BS to that philosophy survival is a contest like anything in life, there are winners and losers.
I have worked my butt off for the last several years, planning, saving, spending frugally, so that me and my family will be taken care of in a SHTF
scenario.
I have farm land and dairy animals. I can’t eat it all nor can I do all the work should I lose electricity. I would sell my milk and sell my
beans in trade for help with the work or even items I need. However, no one will be confiscating anything be it foodstuffs or livestock.
I chose to live this lifestyle for a reason - my own guarantee of survival, not so government can take it so all the mindless feeders and consumers
who live in the city who did nothing to help prepare for themselves can live another few days.
All I have to say is read the grasshopper and the ant. I am the ant and most other people are the grasshoppers.
The only tragedy is that the government with a decree or even a majority vote can come in and because they feel sorry for the grasshoppers who if left
to their own devices would starve force the ants to also starve equally.. This is a great way to solve a problem.
All I have to say is if they show up to steal (what confiscate means) my stuff they had better bring a lot of body bags for themselves. First word
about confiscate and after I shoot the first one to touch a cow or fire up a combine I don't think they'll have too many more volunteers.
Then while they get their crap together - I'll burn the fields myself and start killing the cattle. I may in the end die or go to jail but no way am
I going to be a bystander to theft of 3 years worth of my food and supplies so that we can string along the masses in the city for a few more days...
Screw that nonsense - you don't have a plan; you die!
Pretty simple really, also if your plan is to rely on the government at any level you are going to die because they will do everything to save
themselves first.
I am prepared, I have no pity for those who are not.
