Survivalist Tip: If you plan to stay in your house during the apocalypse, consider getting some barbed wire to place strategically around your property. Barbed wire is a uniquely American invention; developed from the need of farmers and ranchers to keep unsavory characters from encroaching on their land, such as government officials and traveling preachers. Barbed wire is still in use today – pretty much for the same thing – to keep in livestock and keep out government officials and traveling preachers. During the upheaval, a number of vagabonds undoubtedly will try to descend upon your home and take what’s yours. This has been an ongoing battle in the United States anyway, starting with Columbus. Just ask any Indian! (But, not before happy hour.) Regardless, barbed wire will provide a great deal of secure protection for you and your family, as chaos erupts around you. You can then enjoy your chocolate and beer until things settle down.
