When the SHTF, the people dependent on things like cigarettes and liquor will be dead within a month. Those who have them will be targets of desperate and crazy people!
Diabetics, including my wife and myself, will all be dead within three months.
You cannot help but be dependent on food and clean water. So stocking those, is reasonable.
When the chaos is running down to reason and rebuilding, having small sized silver coins will be a good tools for rebuilding, those being the first currency to go back into use.
Gold is too valuable to be of much use in the rebuilding process.
Bullets will be a high value trade item. Sealed packaged condoms would be another good trade item. Common, universal medications like antibiotic creme, asprin, antiseptic spray, and bandaids, will also be in high demand. Don't forget the value of toilet paper and tooth paste.
You want things BUILDERS and Reasoning People will TRADE for... not things VICE and Escapist oriented people will kill for...
You don't have much time. World markets will go into turmoil, now that it is clear that sanity is not going to return to America.
Expect rampant inflation and shortages of short term useful commodities. Canned food. MREs. Flour. Tents. Sleeping bags. Jackets ... Bullets.
Expect a rapid rise in Islamic Terror attacks inside the U.S. borders.
Expect a rapid rise in car-jackings, rape, assault, and smash and grabs.
House to house search and seizure of firearms, based on the supposedly private records of gun stores will be implemented about next April I'm guessing...
Those who don't surrender their designated list, and are listed on the "Conservatives" list, will be arrested.
The riots and mass murders will start by August... by the BLM crowds, who were issued your confiscated firearms, and the IRS ammo.
Welcome to Hell! Enjoy!
