To my mind, taking care of your own basic needs: food, water, sanitation, and defense are not "survival topics". It's the simple way of life all right mined people should be embarked upon.

If you're living like it was 1800 who cares what some politician says or does? Who cares if the heathens are eating corn that drenched in Round Up? What difference does it make if the stock market crashes or the International Bankster controlled and PRIVATELY OWNED Fed Reserve changes interest rates?

The only solution is nullification. You thrive by making "them" irrelevant in your life.
