Are you prepared?

We are spoiled. For many people in the US  everything they need is within a quick trip to a store or delivered.  I'd be willing to bet that a majority of Americans have no idea how to grow food in a garden, how to can foods, or even how to get by without all necessary resources being delivered to their homes, water, electricity, gas etc.  I don't think it is silly or a joke to be somewhat prepared.   But that is just my opinion.  

I didn't take the original post as a joke.  It's a reality that most Americans are ill-prepared.  Some of it is lack of knowledge, some is space, some is finances.  There are many reasons everyone cannot be equally prepared.  I'm fully capable of growing my own plants, but don't have the space for a proper garden to do it.  My storage is very limited to keep much extra food.  But doing what can be done is always a good idea, and at least having a plan in place is something to think about.
