<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Let&#8217;s take a moment to understand just what we will face.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">While all of the change won&#8217;t be accounted for here and everyone&#8217;s situation is different, here is what you need to consider.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">No Running Water</h2>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Ready for an extended power outage, no one really is. Let&#8217;s be honest 9 out of 10 American will die when the power goes out. </p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">America has become totally dependent on it&#8217;s power grid. Everything From the lights in your room to the machines sick people rely on in hospitals. A large scale power outage will change everything as we know it.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">No Electronic Commerce</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Many preppers think that soon as disaster strikes cash will be rendered useless, however in the early stages of long-term disaster or collapse it&#8217;s going to be a critical tool. Remember, even though we know better than the average Americans in the early stages cash will remain king.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">However it&#8217;s important to remember even in a small crisis like hurricanes or heavy storms electronic commerce almost always goes down. So during a crisis consider what&#8217;s in your bank account practically gone.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">No Public Transport</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Remember mini-disasters like Hurricane Katrina and Sandy, we saw just how poorly prepared most were. During these disasters people who depended on public transportation were sh*t out of luck after public transport was shutdown.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">No Personal Transport</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">One important tip to live by is never letting your gas tank go below the halfway mark. When there is a crisis gas pumps will run dry fast and people will begin to riot for gas.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Takeaway</h2>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">We hope this list has got you thinking. You need to take time out of your day to do a real threat assessment for your specific location and lifestyle. </p>
