Disasters happen; that's a fact of life. The question is¿ are you ready for them? Actually, less than two percent of Americans are. The rest? Well, they're expecting the government to bail them out. But as we've seen in past disasters, they're not all that good at it. They're much better at bringing red tape to tie things up. It was almost two months after Hurricane Katrina before power was fully restored. Seven years later, when Hurricane Sandy came along, FEMA didn't do any better. Government organizations just aren't very efficient at dealing with a crisis, as the people of Puerto Rico found out, with many of them not having electrical power restored after the one-two punch of Hurricanes Irma and Maria. Our ancestors didn't depend on anyone to take care of them, if a disaster happened; they took care of themselves; and they did so quite well. We need to return to that lifestyle, becoming more self-sufficient, rather than depending on the extremely complex infrastructure that we've built. With the information included in this book, you can start along that road, depending on yourself, not Uncle Sam.
