Meet the Preppers
http://www.prophecynewswatch.com/2012/January26/2612.html
The world’s a scary place. Wars, famines, corrupt politicians, terrorism, imploding economies — the list goes on. There are plenty of issues worth fearing, which is why a subset of the nation is preparing for what they see as impending calamity.
These individuals, dubbed “preppers,” are stocking up on food, guns, water and other items that they may need should the economy erupt or a massive natural disaster strike. With so many possibilities for problematic occurrences, these individuals want to ensure that they can live beyond any tragically defining moments.
Most preppers are fearful of the prospects of no governmental structure — something that some see as a possibility amidst economic woes and political strife. Back in 2009, a Newsweek report described this phenomenon:

Re: Meet the Preppers
I suppose if you really wanted to put a label on what I do (subsistence farming to augment my income) I could be called a prepper. We have about a year's worth of food stores that we rotate as new crops come in season, or when we fatten up and feed out a cow. With Mennonite neighbors, and two Amish communities within 30 miles doing similar I am confident we can survive.

Re: Meet the Preppers
I think of prepping as a mindset, as well as living a sustainable lifestyle.
