PLAN B MOVING 3

While junk land is pretty cheap unless you go Full Retard on it, like buying a patch of kudzo and chiggers in the South ( okay, some land in the south is dirt cheap-and some is a LOT of money for denuded soil and junk vegetation ), obviously the cost past the initial purchase is certainly not zero. Like that “bargain” AR first cost you $400, but then you needed another two grand for ammo and mags. You will need shelter on it. And unfortunately that probably does mean shelter that is both mobile and modular. Which raises the cost.

*

Let's say that you have a lot of land up the mountain somewhere. Almost free wood, right? Well, no. Because it is almost impossible to build NOW, with the crackhead brigades. So, you need a shelter that you drive to the lot, live in that, THEN build after you are living there full time. Think of crackheads as gophers. They look cute, and they are starved and so relatively harmless, but they are capable of scorch earthing all your careful work in no time at all. You know how cats torture or murder for seemingly no reason?

*

The cat does actually have a reason, to hone its hunting skills and, in its partnership with Humans Who Feed, eliminate destructive rodents. Crackheads have a good reason for what they do. It is practice for future theft, and it eliminates encroachment on to their territory. That is why they seemingly for no reason destroy what they cannot steal for profit ( this is a theory in progress, obviously ). Why they are so tenacious and why they put in extreme effort to steal so much of so little resale value so far out in the middle of nowhere?

*

Do you ever wonder why drug lords and the government allow crack to remain so available? Having a low cost alternative surely hurts those entities. The cartels don't sell as much of the better alternatives and the State takes in far less bribes. Again with another half baked theory, I think the crackheads controlling through destruction large rural areas, most people are herded into centralized urban areas, under the control of both entities where the ultimate profit is. Gott Damn crackheads! One day, my Pretties, it will be open season.

*

So, you cannot live out far enough. Every time you leave, you roll the dice on what will remain upon your return. You must secure anything of value while shopping or working, which means everything is in a fenced in yard, and locked up. You cannot leave the solar panels out in the sun, or propane bottles out in the open. Windows must have storm covers locked, to prevent broken glass. And the yard patrolled by a dog. Just beware, the dog might become a casualty. Far better would be a dog, AND a person left behind, well armed, and electronic sensors far out.

*

All this sounds silly, I know. Just beware how much I lost, in the middle of winter, with everything extreme low budget. Almost two grand. I'm only lucky the vandalism was very low. If you put in any amount of investment in your place, the theft and damage will be much higher. The most extreme countermeasures are dirt cheap compared to what you can lose. There simply isn't a viable shelter you can build ahead of time, and safety leave alone to the tender mercies of these animals. I'm not guaranteeing you WILL be targeted, but if you are you are double dog dingus humped.

*

Which means you have a shelter with you now that you can bring with you and live in. But that shelter must also contain the materials you will need for building a more permanent shelter, limiting the supplies of food and such. See the problem with NOT living on your junk land now? You can cache a lot of your supplies, but you had better be sure you are stealthy about it. Crackheads are incapable of hard work, except when there is money or destruction as rewards ( and it doesn't have to be a lot of payback, either ).

*

A crackhead will perform three thousand dollars worth of damage to get to a three dollar profit item. After traveling thirteen miles over rutted roads to do so. See why my theories about them are tentative? It is hard to figure these freaks out. Is it envy that fuels them? Hallucinations with temporary superhuman strength? Receivers of signals from our Imperial Lizard Overlords? Do they regress to childhood where destruction is both fun and instructive?

*

If I was really paranoid, I would think they are the perfected Universal Soldier by Skynet, clearing the countryside for a unobstructed drone intelligence gathering-my best guess with current information. These are your first enemy, BEFORE, not after, sheriff deputies, zone enforcement officials, tax collectors and federal EPA agents. Just another group of twats unable to leave you alone to go about the hard enough business of trying to survive now, during and after the crash. Did I digress too far?

*

A realistic mobile set up would be to have the materials for a minimum size dug-out ( in climes too hot or cold, but not too wet ) and day quarters. The sleeping part is just that, enough room to sleep and not much else, but also enough room as in a small tent for some primitive cooking in extreme weather conditions. Up above, somewhere also out of the weather. For instance if you drove to your location is a van, that would be your place to hang out during the day. You have winter solar gain, with the insides with quilts covering the walls. This is basically Camping Plus, a step above suffering with the seasons. This is during an economic collapse. You'll need to patrol and sentry at just one step below Total Warfare. Acclimate to mostly hanging around outside.

*

While the darling Princess Pony Prepper won't even think of such a set-up, now, just wait until the cities explode in racial warfare, with LEO's hiring out as mercenaries, and the crackheads funded for hit and runs on the rural areas by the Feds getting paid by the body. Remember the Congo? There was a market for severed hands, under the Belgians. Perhaps here, each federal agency sees their budget tied to a severed head signifying a terrorist. Don't think hunting parties won't go out into the boonies for easy targets?

*

Point being, there probably won't be a lot of leisure time spent in camp. You'll be okay with bare minimum shelters. So don't sweat unable to being able to haul out a Yuppie Castle come the time. You'll be surprised how quick your priorities change.
