Folks if it all goes south there is a whole lot of stuff we will be missing , and we can never have enough stuff stored for such a thing it will be primitive living again after a few years and we will either make do or die , I cast and cost bullets now for storage as it is going to be easier now then later , all in all stock up ahead of time on anything you can use now and would use later and learn how to do things yourself and how to get by with less .
