New video on video bar

In case you haven't noticed, there's a new video that I made today.  It is rather rough as it was made on the fly.  I didn't anticipate that it would be displayed on the video bar.  As long as it's up there, I'm going to leave it alone.

The reason for this post is not to belabor what could be obvious, but to expand a little upon what I said on the video.  The question is this:  how do you survive an EMP attack?

I've already mentioned it several times, but I suppose it can be repeated again.  Our culture has become obsessed with money.  Humankind lived for millenia without any money.  Money isn't necessary for survival.  It is only necessary in a highly complex and highly developed society like ours.  But this kind of system is fragile.  The more "primitive" system would take an EMP attack in stride.  It may not even be noticed.  But for a highly developed society, it could be a wipeout.

Would the rich do better than the poor?  The surprising answer could be no.  Maybe more than just "could", but it might be "should".  Remember Hank Williams Jr.'s song A Country Boy Can Survive?

Now, I've had deliveries to millionaire's palaces.  What good would this palace be if the country's infrastructure has suddenly been destroyed?  That palace probably won't have a farm on it.  Too ugly.  But this pretty mansion would be useless in an emergency.  It would give no shelter nor sustenance.
