Very few of us have the means to "store up enough food and supplies for yourself and for everyone that will be depending upon you for as long as you plan to stay alive." That's unrealistic except for the few rich people who have enough disposable income to buy all those supplies and still manage to live day-to-day lives until the great collapse. Any other advice about how to prepare beyond that bit? I'm not being sarcastic. I'm serious.

That was exactly what I thought. How do you buy & store enough of EVERYTHING (which includes a lot more than just food but WATER - medications, bullets, equipment, etc) even if for only one or 2 (not to mention “everyone that will be depending on you” & “for as long as you plan to stay alive”. I’m not even sure the super wealthy w/ huge underground bunkers could keep that gig going indefinitely.

Anyone ever see the Twilight Zone episode “The Shelter”?

Is that the one where the guy realizes he has no can opener at the end?

Wow. That's very apt. A bit scary as well. I imagine if the SHTF, this type of scenario will play out for real all over the world.

Survey after survey has shown that faith in our major institutions is dropping!! None of us should have ever had faith in ANY major institution! Major Institutions are mental institutions. The ONLY thing to have faith in is God almighty. Fear and fear-mongering are the devil. If you do not fear death and only fear God, then you will get through anything!

Prepare for the collapse of society? The collapse is here. Picking up speed. Stockpiling stalls the inevitable when everything runs out. What fools we mortals be.
