There has been a natural disaster that has caused at least a billion dollars of damage inside the United States every single month so far this year. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, there have been10 major disasters in the United States this year. On average, usually there are only about 3 major disasters a year. At this point, disasters are happening inside the United States so frequently that there seems to be no gap between them. We just seem to go from one major disaster to the next. Last year, FEMA declared an all-time record of 81 disasters inside the United States. This year, we are on pace for well over 100. We just got done dealing with Hurricane Irene, and now we are dealing with historic wildfires in Texas and unprecedented flooding up in the northeast part of the country. This has been the worst year for natural disasters in U.S. history, and we still have nearly four months left to go. Hopefully after everything that has happened this year it has become abundantly clear to all of us why we need to prepare for emergencies. The world is becoming an increasingly unstable place, and you never know what is going to happen next.

This documentary examines the strategies, and tactical planning of four different family groups two of whom live in Suburban Phoenix, and two whose long term survival preperations involve having the ability to leave the city to relocate to more secure rural areas.
While the family group leaders in the four scenarios shown each foresee different causes for what they believe will lead to the breakdown of the fabric of civil behavior in the American society, there are valuable insights that even seasoned "Preppers" may learn from viewing this video. Self-Reliance topics such as emergency medical care at a time that even Hospitals may eventually lose their abilities to generate electricity to care for their patients, personal hygeine including the suitable storage of human waste in an underground bomb shelter are covered.
While veteran "Preppers" will understand that the families who choose to "go on record" to reveal their personal preperation plans violated the code of keeping "Op Sec" (Operation Security) by showing their neighbors who happened to see this documentary the extensive preperations that will be coveted in a time of civil pandemonium, those of us who take the time to gleen the nuggets of key info in Doomsday Preppers may pick up many valueable insights that we may have overlooked in our own preperations thus-far.
One thing is certain about what life in America will be like after TSHTF, the thin veneer of American civility will break apart just like it did inside the Louisiana Superdome just within a few days after Hurricane Katrina. While the majority of Americans still consider themselves to be Christians, when the "Poop Hits the Fan" those who truly show that they "Love their Neighbor as themselves" will be a rare breed apart.
For the American Journalists who covered the aftermath of Japan's devastating earthquake/tsunami/and ongoing nuclear power meltdown were amazed by the degree of civil behavior, and cooperation among the Japanese peoples whose lives had been most affected. Reports of just how well even those thirsty,hungry,cold and tired Japanese citizens who had stood in line for fresh water, and food for hours only to be turned away once the emergency supplies were exhausted is a positive testimony to the Japanese National Character.
Considering just how disgustingly awful Americans who wake up still stuffed from their Thanksgiving Dinners on "Black Friday's" National Day of Shopping are now behaving it only makes good sense to store up enough provisions to avoid the desperation that may soon hit Supermarket's Worldwide when the coming economic collapse, or other disaster Du Jour hits your local community.
If you would like to receive your reward for sharing your food and water with those who are less fortunate when empty store shelves results in massive civic unrest, it would be wise to stock up now on the provisions that you will need to be in a position to share your food, water, and other supplies with those who are worthy to receive a blessing from your future charity.
For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.Mark 9:41
