I’ve seen a few folks mention go bags/bugout bags lately, as the situation in the US continues to decline. Seems like a good idea to ask y’all what should go in a go bag, and I can make a follow-up post with a list of ideas for folks who want to be prepared to leave if/when the time comes.

Cheaper is probably better, since the most vulnerable of us are likely to have the least resources available to plan for the future.

    Have a bag with everything you’d need to be comfortable for an unexpected long weekend trip basically, and work from there to fit your specific needs.

    You nailed it, I have an unhealthy obsession with prepper forums and the amount of times I've seen JimOffTheGrid69 post their bugout bag full of MRE's, axes, three handguns, two long guns and a water filtration system like hes going to live in a cave in the woods is hilarious. It goes from reasonable precaution to delusional security blanket real fast.

    Have a destination in mind and plan accordingly, you dont need to stockpile beans if your plan is to take your car three hours over state lines to your aunts house.
