How to start preparing. Take three days during the work week and turn off your electric and water. Make do with what you can and write down things you needed and didn't have or tasks that were difficult. After you have this list, research alternatives Eat, wear and consume cheaper. Choose cheaper meals to create room in your grocery budget to put back food. Wear second hand clothes or put a spending freeze on clothes shopping in order to make room to buy what you'll need for the future (especially if you have small children who grow frequently). Consume less electricity, gas, propane by finding alternatives. This may mean using a crock pot, hang drying clothes, using candles at night and opening windows for sunshine during the day etc. With the wiggle room you've created in those bills you now have some money to buy more food storage, medical supplies or invest in a small solar unit. Make an edc bag. This is something you will carry all the time (on your person or in your car) that could provide you with what you and your family need for 3 nights. Think about what you may put into an overnight bag if you were to stay at a hotel. This will ensure even if something happens and you're out you're able to shelter in place Understand how to take care of medical emergencies at home. Remember that in a major event, ems could be down or unavailable for sometime. While this is never the first line of defense in an emergency, understanding how to manage medical emergencies (high infections, deep wounds, pneumonia, asthma attacks, shock, 2nd and 3rd degree burns, poisoning, radiation sickness, torn ligaments, allergic reactions, excessive bleeding) while you wait on help can be life and death. Food, water, temperature control are your highest priorities. If faced with a major event where services are limited for more than 3 days, having stored food as well as a way to cook, a way to filter and store water, and a way to keep yourself cool or warm can be life altering. Please remember as we are entering or for some of us are already in uncertain times, having this foundation gives security as well as lowers stress. It allows us to feel more in control and gain a more positive perspective on not only our lives but the world. I'm willing to answer any questions from my own experience in the comments if you feel overwhelmed!

Nothing shocked me more, than driving over the grape vine down in L.A., CA, and getting over a hill, was completely immersed in flames leaping 30 ft high up both sides of the freeway. They hadn't stopped traffic. 911 was BUSY, I had no idea, if I was driving into something worse, or where the safest exit was. GPS was down. Sheriff's wouldn't answer. Finally got through to a fire dept that told me where the fires were, & how to drive to get out of it safely. I've kept an edc 3 day bag ever since, with extra water. That was insane! I'm just glad my tires didn't melt.

They always know what is in those tankers because it's DOT required. That has to be recorded in the paperwork with the driver and shipper. Also, that's why there are placards on both the tractor and tanker to identify what they are transporting to be DOT legal.

Let's be honest though, Buttigieg was put in office to push the LGBTQ agenda, he had no experience at all in blue collar transportation industry. He also went on maternity leave for a long period of time. It's pretty ridiculous.

The amount some of these trucking companies make in profit is OBSCENE, yet they pinch pennies any chance they get. They'd make plenty of profit by following all the rules and giving some leway, but they're just too dang greedy. You see this happening in other corporations as well. It's only when they get bad press or huge insurance bills that they change course, but over time they'll become greedy again.
