User ID: 75825237 United States09/23/2020 05:10 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | When people talk about trading after the apocalypse, usually they start discussing whether you’re better off stockpiling extra ammunition or some surplus food. These are both great trade assets – for a while. Eventually they’ll run out, though, and then what? The guy who’s been bringing you fresh eggs every day isn’t going to keep doing it when you’ve run out of shells for his 12-gauge. Trading surplus supplies might be essential from time to time, but it’s never going to be a long-term solution because, in the end, your supplies will be gone.

Me Kingdoms were run by kings Empires were run by Emperors Countries are run by..... Dumps were almost fixed by Trump |

Long term survival is something completely different and people will lean on each and cooperate. You may think collapse would be more Mad Max than Little House On The Prairie, but that's because you've watched too many terrible Hollywood movies. History doesn't bear this out. And btw, I've read the book Little House On The Prairie and it's a lot more brutal than you know. |

Think firearms.....machinist or blacksmith? A blacksmith can make firearms, I refer you to Foxfire 5, but a machinist can make firearms with interchangeable parts. You can do good quality work under fairly primitive conditions just take a look at the arms manufacturers in the Khyber Pass. [link to en.wikipedia.org (secure)] "Yes, yes.
