NeuroTypical Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 Heh. It makes sense: Have the ability to be self-sufficient for 10 days. It just makes perfect sense. Reading the criticisms is fascinating. Panic-buying. "Hoarding". Accusations of fear-mongering for political gain. My guess at explanations for the criticisms: - Anything that threatens the mantra of "the govt is sufficient to fill any need" gets attacked. - People fear change, the unknown, difficulties. And it's easier to attack the message than deal with probability of something uncomfortable. zil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
