The Uncommon Common Man
Have you noticed that many of the individuals who actually have valuable "survival" skills, do not have an online presence? Nor do they even pay attention to platforms like this? Case in point: my well driller. He has real skills, equipment, and tools for serious survival---he can dig deep water wells. And he knows how to, say, install a presserized system, for inside a house, with a hand pump only. And, of course, I have been in conversation with him about various matters. He knows nothing of the banking system. Nothing of events in China, Ukraine, the Middle East. Has no online presence at all. The same is true of the farmers who live close to me. They actually raise enough cattle to feed thousands. But, the well matter made me think---very few of the "prepper" pushers on youtube and such ever seem to talk about water independence. I wonder why not?
