I do worry about food. And water. I'm trying to grow as much as I can myself and maintain connections in my community with people who do the same.
And I know that no matter how many personal heirloom seed vaults people maintain or how much organic gardening and small scale ranching is going on, when the big system comes down and hundreds of millions are starving, it's going to be a bloodbath, even in rural areas.
I need to freeze some seed.
One of the creepiest COVID related power moves from last spring was when some states were going into hardware stores etc, which had been allowed to stay open, but some aisles and items were roped off and unavailable for purchase as they were deemed "non-essential". Seeds and gardening supplies were locked down and not allowed to be sold in those places for a time.
I didnt see that but luckily I love in an area that isn't insane
