When The Hard Times Come – You Are On Your Own!
Earl Griffin
There has been a lot of attention paid recently to the activities of those individuals and families who believe in taking responsibility for themselves. Often they are called “Preppers.” Sometimes they are called “hoarders”, or “crazies.”
Funny; when things go south it’s not often you see those people on television crying, screaming, and pulling their hair because the government isn’t there to help them. That is because they helped themselves before it hit the fan.
I remember when Katrina hit the Gulf Coast. I recall the anger that I personally felt because of the seemingly unmitigated suffering of the people in the aftermath of that storm. Each day the smoldering rage I felt because of the government’s apparent inaction burned hotter and brighter.
Its been several years since Katrina – things still haven’t gotten back to normal in New Orleans. “Those dang Republicans,” I thought, “callous, indifferent to the plight of those with whom they have lost touch.” Now we’ve had another storm: Sandy.
The weather forecasters were united for a week. “It’s going to be a huge, terrible storm,” they said.
I remember the innumerable jackasses calling the radio station and complaining about the “hype.”
Before long reporters, weather forecasters, and government officials were making public service announcements to assure the public that this storm was not being “hyped.”
Everyone had a week’s warning!
The “crazies,” aka people who believe that it is their responsibility to take care of themselves and their own family no matter what, started getting ready as you can see: here, here, and here.
When I asked people, “What are you doing to get ready for Sandy?” A few people listed their preparations. However the majority of people just laughed at me and joked about, “Milk, bread, and toilet paper.”
Maryland was spared much of the terrible wind damage. However New Jersey and New York were not. Funny – at first there wasn’t a lot of coverage about the looting and panic people were experiencing. However, Barking Window did cover these things and more in Sandy’s aftermath.
