Anyone who is not preparing for a breakdown in infrastructure is going to be caught in a situation were they are either dependent on people who want them dead or have no supplies at all.

having guns and supplies is no guarantee of survival, you could make yourself a target for have nots if they discover your location.

It is always prudent to be prepared. The program 'doomsday preppers' always seemed ridiculous to me,and the folks on it pretentious and idiotic... the last thing anyone should do is reveal their strategy for survival to a television audience, or anyone they don't implicitly trust for that matter..
