The 6 Critical Things to Prepare for When Governments Fail

TLDRIn this video, we discuss the importance of being prepared for when governments fail. We cover six critical areas including food and water, protection, reliable services, healthcare, economic stability, and infrastructure. It is crucial to have a plan in place and be self-sufficient in these areas to ensure survival during turbulent times.

Key insights

💡Food and water supplies may become scarce during a government collapse, making it essential to stockpile and be self-sufficient.

🔒With a potential decline in law enforcement, it is crucial to take measures to protect yourself and your family during times of social unrest.

💡Government-provided reliable services such as electricity, sanitation, and waste management may cease to function, requiring individuals to find alternative solutions.

⚕️The healthcare system may collapse, leading to a shortage of prescription medications and limited access to medical care. Being prepared with medical supplies and knowledge of first aid is essential.

💰Economic stability may be compromised, resulting in market collapses, hyperinflation, and a devaluation of currency. Diversifying assets and having tangible goods for bartering can help during financial crises.

Q&A

What is the likelihood of a government collapse?

While the likelihood of a complete government collapse may be low, history has shown instances of economic collapse and social unrest. It is prudent to be prepared for any potential disruptions in government services.

How long should food and water supplies last during a government collapse?

It is recommended to have at least a few weeks' worth of food and water supplies, although some preppers stockpile for years. The duration will depend on the severity and duration of the collapse.

What alternatives are there for reliable services such as electricity and waste management?

Alternative energy sources like solar generators can provide electricity, while composting toilets and waste management systems can be used in place of government-provided services.

Building a strong support network, learning self-defense, and having defensive tools such as firearms and pepper spray can help ensure your safety during times of social unrest.
