Diesel Fuel Rationing?

I don't store up food.
If everything goes all to Mad Max, My stored ammo and weapons will take all the food I want.

When things go to hell, it’s not those who stored food and fuel who survive… it’s those who can defend what they have, or take what is needed, with force.

All of a sudden, being vehemently against firearm ownership isn’t ideal.

There is a certain class of person who seems to always default to heavy-handed one size fits all (fits all the little people who don't count anyway). That class of person seems always to also be contributing to collectivist causes ,and they are too ignorant to understand than when the collectivists get the levers of power, all the wealth that made that class of person feel so high and mighty will be on the chopping block.

My family, fled Cuba after Castro's thugs started assassinating anyone who dared to own a little bit of land. They were dirt poor, lived in a cold water shack, and kept bees. But that wasn't poor enough for the collectivists.

Cool story bro. How many people do you think you'll be able to murder and steal from before you get unlucky and find someone better than you?

Haven't seen it here (rationing). The price is high enough that it imposes being frugal in use. ORD is currently pushing 5+ a gallon.

I actually ran my entire first cut of forage on 20 gallons by being frugal with it.

I figure at least 3.

I'll tell you this, I'm going to look awesome in a leather thong and chaps after civilization falls.

I actually thought he was referring to the deer population, not the sheep...

I mean, either works, I guess it depends on your location.

It'll be like what that guy said who jumped off the empire state building as he passed the 50th floor: "So far so good."

But it won't be murder. Murder is a term of art in the law and if there's no law then there's no murder.

Some police in MI have stopped regular patrols, as their fuel budgets are exhausted.

Flying through ORD a few weeks ago, I have NEVER in 20 years seen the grass and weeds so tall at that airport. Partially obscuring signage for taxiways. Clearly they made a choice to do the minimum of mowing this year.

Its fun. It’s all built back better. We are returning the earth to nature.
