I apologize if this is a dumb question. I'm genuinely interested in hearing your thoughts on this, because I feel like it's never addressed. <br><br><br><br>**Everyone needs to eat, but if the economy crashes, how will people get food?**<br><br><br><br>Let's assume you have a few months worth of food stockpiled. That'll run out eventually. <br><br><br><br>Most people don't grow their own food or collect rainwater. So, eventually, people will need to go to the grocery store or get food somehow. <br><br><br><br>If the economy crashes, most people will lose their jobs and their money. <br><br><br><br>**How will people buy food?**<br><br><br><br>**They can't live off of just the food stockpiled and garden. Eventually, the economy will need to recover, and businesses need employees.** <br><br><br><br>**So if there's no economy, how can people get food?**
