    The super-rich ‘preppers’ planning to save themselves from the apocalypse?

    What do they expect to happen? Are they overly paranoid?

    This is an article about people trying to protect themselves and their families. I get that, but don't see what the Forum issue is. Is it because they are rich? We have always known about the rich, but they are no different than we are, as to trying to protect themselves. So setting aside the concern that they are rich (for whatever reason for concern, , I dont know) we are left with discussing our various ways of protecting ourselves. A street person protects himself by swinging a broom, I protect us with physical shelter and economic (conservative stuff) shelter, actually have certain gold buried in ground. You may protect yourself in lib fashion by all gathering together in groups, maybe holding up candles. To each his own.
    But I don't see why I would think about the rich when I am scurrying around myself!!!
    Maybe the government will save us!!! I think it is in the Constitution. Right after the abortion amendment.

    The super rich are willing to risk nuclear war because they have bunkers to survive it.
    Do you have a basement in your home? If not, better plan whose basement you will live in for a few days. Better have a bicycle handy since the EMP will cripple your automobile.

    By super rich I take it you mean the scumbag Putin and his merry band of thieving oligarchs.

    Bill Gates is rumored to have bunkers at all his properties.

    He will be nice and comfy while you are scrambling to get someone to let you stay in their basement. If you cannot find one within walking distance you will have to ride a bicycle and hope when you get there they have room for you.

    Your claiming Putin does not have a luxury bunker, I’m not sure what your point is.
    Do you think that the rich and powerful being much better placed to survive any disaster is a ‘hold the front page moment’ are you really this naive?
    Your supporting the scumbag who’s promising to initiate the nuclear war, that’s how stooopid you actually are.

    All world nuclear powers have nuclear bunkers for their leaders.
    My point is the rich people will survive while you die.

    I support peace and am openly encouraging a peace deal. It is the west that refuses peace, not Russia. You hate Putin so much you support risking nuclear war. That is what is stupid. It is not Putin who will die in a nuclear exchange. He has his bunker to survive it. It will be you that dies.

    Whose basement are you going to rush to? Better hope they let you stay there.

    As so very often with you, if you would turn down your emotional wheel by a few notches and fromulate a bit different even debate would be possible:

    "My point is that rich people will more likely survive, while you will more likely die."

    Amen, brother.

    So who exactly went with strong military force into their neighbouring country with the express aim to remove the government?

    If you would be an alien arriving february 28th this year with no previous knwoledeg about history. Who would you blame for the war?

    That hardly matters. NATO did that to Serbia to annex Kosovo so the heroin could continue to be sent throughout Europe. NATO protects the heroin trade. They invaded Afghanistan to make sure opium production continued and strengthened later. Just like the opium wars before this the elites are profiting from drugs and using military force to do it. Same thing, different era.
