(8,142 posts)why don't you agree with being prepared, regardless of what the situation might be?
The US government says one should have a three day supply of food and water in case of anything that may come up. I live in far west Texas. We don't have earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, ice storms, tsunamis or any other sort of disasters. Other than hot summers , the occasional dust storm in the spring and the extreme violence across the Mexican border in Juarez, Mexico it's a pretty calm place to live but I still keep food and water in the house for about a week. No extreme prepping, just a weeks worth. Do you think that's wrong to be prepared like that?
"constantly being prepared for the most unlikely of disastrous occurrences and prepared in such a way as to be just as likely to exacerbate the disaster factor for all concerned and others not concerned."
Your opinion, not mine. I was a Boy Scout. In fact my co-workers used to tell me "you're such a Boy Scout". In part because I was always so prepared when going to meetings and in doing my job but also because they said I was almost honest to a fault.
