The Ultimate Situational Survival Guide: Self-Reliance Strategies for a Dangerous Worldselfnews Post We live in a world where most people would rather outsource their survival to some random government agency instead of taking the tough, but necessary steps to ensure their own health and safety. But when disaster strikes, the reality of the situation is youre on your own. Help isnt coming. If you think anyone in the government cares what happens to you, youre wrong! In The Ultimate Situational Survival Guide: Self-Reliance Strategies for a Dangerous World, Robert Richardson, author and founder of OffGridSurvival.com, seeks to empower people to take control of their lives, their security, and their personal preparedness. Richardson says, We live in a world full of dependents; people who have either lost the will, or were never taught what it really takes to be self-reliant. Richardson, who has been an emergency preparedness consultant and writer for over a decade, says he wrote the book to help empower people to take control of their lives, and to get people ready for the chaos that he sees coming. The United States is now over 17 trillion dollars in debt, with all signs pointing towards an economic crisis even worse that what we experienced in 2008. In a nation of 317 Million people, over 109 million of them now live in a household that receives some sort of government welfare. Richardson warns that the country as at a tipping point. I think were at a point where theres no longer a way to dig ourselves out of the mess thats been created by decades of criminal politicians. While most remain willfully ignorant of whats really going on, the reality of the situation is this country is heading towards not only an economic collapse, but a collapse of society as well. From an out of control government that cares more about public perception than they do in fixing actual problems, to a checked out public that would rather stand in line for the newest iPhone than take even a single action to help protect themselves from disasters, we are living in an age where self-reliance and preparedness has taken a backseat to just about everything.
