It's quite intimidating to know the powers who want to either control or kill us are so extraordinarily powerful that we are just grasshoppers in their eyes. This is why we need help and faith.
A recent study was published by psychologists Michael J. Wood and Karen M. Douglas of the University of Kent (UK). The study by psychologists and social scientists in both the United States and the UK has found that those who believe in ‘conspiracy theories’ are considered ‘more sane’ than those who believe in the ‘official versions’ of the ‘contested events’.
What about millions of people like me trapped with ZERO FINANCIAL RESOURCES in urban apartment buildings with ZERO space to grow anything or store much of anything! I despise the globalist predator elites more than just about anybody out there but feel utterly despairing and helpless and suicidal and furious and all this prepping and bugging out advice is utterly useless for folks like me!
I am in the same situation. I am buying a bit extra to store weekly. I will remove unnecessary items for survival items if and when necessary. Hope this works for us.
Frankly, I would go through your house and remove items from a closet, store under beds, use a corner to stack bags of rice and beans. Just think a little out of the box--seems extreme, but so be it. Or consider bugging out to a better place.
Well, I guess as you've designated yourself as a victim already, a victim you will be. Other than the very wealthy, who really has the money to buy $1000 worth of "extra" long-term food? That's why it was advised to buy slowly over time, starting now. If you are that poor, you are on food stamps. Use those, otherwise, stop superfluous spending, do not eat out again until this is officially over and take it seriously.
I was merely offering advice. You don't like it? That's ok! You can complain yourself to death, literally. Stop your whining and take charge of your life. I definitely won't be paying for you.
I am not a victim. I suggested buying small amounts weekly and storing in places where unnecessary items can be removed. Read before you rant you virtuous, smug know-it-all.
BTW, I am not on any assistance, nor do I spend frivously, maybe you need to relax.
We've been stocking up for a few weeks now - a few items a week.
The Highwire interviewed a guy who started this website - https://www.farmmatch.com as a way to get fresh produce to people. Hopefully, more small farmers will be doing this since they're just as pissed as the rest of us.
If you live in an apartment, search online for ways to grow some veggies in small pots especially if you have a small patio or deck. Some veggie plants will even grow inside. Kale is really easy to grow.
Also, some forms of bartering may come back. What can you trade? A service? A can of tuna for whatever? If you live in an apt bldg, maybe some others in your bldg would be interested in starting a group to help each other. You don't know until you try. Community used to be, and I thnk still is, the key to survival.
Costco is a good place to shop for bulk items. Buy a few things every week. If you don't have a membership, someone you know probably does. Recently bought packs of canned tuna, salmon and chicken - good for two years. People suggested spam which I hate. Also canned peas, navy beans, soups and corn. Lg bag of brown and white rice, lentils, split peas and beans. If you have chicken broth, you can make soup. Bread and cheese can be frozen if wrapped properly.
Someone suggested having an extra container of salt, a large jar of honey, jar of organic coconut oil as a substitute for cooking oils, butter, or to use as skin cream. We have a small propane camping stove in case power goes out. A First aid kit, matches, and a good flashlight. Also, have some extra cash stashed in case the ATMs don't work.
I think people need to stop waiting and do something now - like today. Worst case, you'll have some extra food and supplies on hand and maybe get to know some of your nicer neighbors.
Powerful message, most importantly pray! Our country needs prayers and forgiveness
Excellent starting point.

Hence the major attempt to gaslight everyone.

Some stats indicate there are about 56 million Americans who are trapped as you are.
Unfortunate

You paying?

No, that is what I suggested. You asked me, in response to my kind advice, if I was paying your bill. Maybe you need some meds.
I don't take or need any medication including vaccines. Thanks anyway doctor.
I never asked, nor did anyone, for your advice. Thank, but no thanks. Have a nice day.

So how does a person living on a slowly eroding checking account in a small one bedroom apartment approach the situation?
Thank you
