This Giant Beast That is the Global Economy
# A Little Film to Awaken the Masses

Well, a few months back, by pals [Survivor Jane](https://www.survivorjane.com/) and [Secret Garden of Survival](https://secretgardenofsurvival.com/) told their close friends that they were part of a documentary.  To know why we are buddies, when Jane and Rick helped bring about [Doomsday Preppers](https://www.nationalgeographic.com.au/tv/doomsday-preppers/), I got on Twitter and harassed the show with my snarkiness.   I still give Jane a hard time about the fake pepper spray moment that made it to air from their segment. Frankly, I think **Doomsday Preppers** did a real disservice to the community. But, hey, people can think what they want.  

When Rick decided to do something with [The Daily Show](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSSFAGx3GNY), he made sure that things would be better.  And, I agree, they did a great skit, that was funny, entertaining and not too far down the path of making Rick to look like a nut job.  

Well, now the Amazon Prime movie has dropped the trailers, we get to see a glimpse of what it is going to be about.

## This Giant Beast That is the Global Economy
> This globe-spanning docuseries brings the smart, stylized storytelling of Adam McKayโ€™s The Big Short to a quirky and compelling exploration of the global economy. In each episode, host Kal Penn โ€“ with the help of some celebrity friends โ€“ answers a burning question like: How can I launder a bag of dirty cash? How scared should I be of a rubber apocalypse? And is it easier for dicks to get rich?

Rick shows up near the end of trailer, after the part where Kal Penn says 
> That's all well and good, but it's not funny. How do we make it funny? 

And then it gets serious, with serious things, including a hit man, killer Artificial Intelligence and Rick.  At this point, Rick gives Kal the line that when a total economic collapse (due to an EMP) hits, the wheels of commerce will grind to a halt.

> We'll have a total financial breakdown.  80% of the population will be dead in two months. People will be killing each other and eating each other for food.

Kal, laughs.

### Do you think that I'm shitting  you?

Rick is a serious guy, but if you watch us on [Politically Correct](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmJ3S5R3hGCHqJ5yoqWYKiA), you also know he likes to joke around.  The information he gives about the 80%, comes from studies done by the government.  

The basic idea is, if food delivery stopped, then most stores would be empty in 2-3 days.  Since most households do not store more than a day or two of food, people will start getting hungry quickly.  The police can't handle mass riots for food.  We will end up in a situation of people starving to death or just killing each other to take their food and then eventually to eat each other.  

### People are easier to hunt than animals. 

Anyway, here is the trailer.  Hopefully the entire movie is good and they just didn't put the best parts in the trailer.

And although everything here is confirmed fact, preppers are laughed at.

Have a year worth of food stored.
And people laugh.  Why would you want to do that?

The only real solution is for me to store enough food for everyone in my area.  However, that is both logistically and financially impossible for me.

So, the doable solutions is to have enough food for yourself and those who you care about, and kill everyone who comes within 100 yards.  This includes mothers with hungry children.  Of course, do your best to look like you are not home; do not attract attention.

-----

Storing 3 months of food is doable by everyone who has a home in america.  Food is very cheap compared to our hourly wages.

And, you need to change your eating habits.  You can't just pile a bunch of MREs and ignore them.  All things have a shelf life.

So, if you have canned goods as your store, you need to eat canned meals once every 5 days.  (and then replenish your supply with new cans)

Canned foods lasting 5 years, and 1 year of reserves, means 1/5th of your meals need to be from those cans.

Good advice.

The most important part is rotating your food supplies.  If you buy packaged food, make sure you like to eat it and rotate it into your regular food supply.
