The price of everything is going up, and I’m increasingly pessimistic about the long-term prospects for civilization (and, well, everything). With the supply chain disruptions and our culture’s constant obsession with Grievance Studies, it doesn’t seem like anyone serious is in charge anymore, and it’s getting hard to get stuff. People are sitting at home rather than working, further exacerbating the ongoing supply chain issues.
Anyone reading this blog is likely familiar with these problems. Just talking about them, though, doesn’t do much to solve the problems. Fortunately, there are some very basic things you can do to stock up and get yourself prepared for an emergency, if not the collapse of civilized society.
