Get off The Grid, Stay off The Grid.

About Me

People today are of a different mindset than those who got us where we are today. This generation, Gen X and Y, have had it very easy and not to many people can actually do anything for themselves anymore. We have become overly dependent for everything in our lives, including the basic necessities like; food, water and shelter. True, most of us work for what we have and need, but there are many able-bodied people out there who are getting a free ride through life, on our ticket, people who feel that they are entitled to everything for free.Is there another depression on the horizon? Are we heading for an economic collapse? We got through The Great Depression.... We can do it again, right? I'm not so sure we could. During The Great Depression people were used to having it rough. People today are so used to having it so easy and having everything handed to them, what would happen if all of a sudden, millions of these people hit the hardest of times? No grocery stores to walk into, to just get food, no fancy cars to get you where you want to be, little or no running water. What will you do?Depression is bad enough, Collapse is unmanageable. Can you take care of yourself? What are you doing to make sure?PI
