User ID: 844575 United States12/20/2009 09:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | this is one of those ideas you really need to think through Quoting: maludo you really want to be dealing with people who crave alcohol in a SHTF environment? what happens if they buy just enough to get a good buzz, but don't have any more money? will you give it to them, or will they take it from you? I have several cases of vodka for trade and personal use. It's no more dangerous than having food or ammo. Poor people do poor people things, and rich people do rich people things. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it! when you rob Paul to give to Peter ... ... ... you will always get Peters support! :Brieffromnativea: |

It's no more dangerous than having food or ammo. i would really, really think that through. it is a great deal more dangerous. i sit with alcoholics everyday. food could be your downfall as well, and studying what people went through in WWII was very educational for me. personally, i want my shit together 24/7. just like i live my life now ;) "By way of deception, thou shalt do war."

Quoting: Al 826017Should I go bottom of the barrel generic rum/whiskey/vodka for their inexpensive intoxicating ability? no, b/c every jackass in town will be trying to make bathtub gin and selling it on the street corners... but real, fine quality Stoli or Crown Royal will be in demand... high demand... not only will it be rare, it will remind people of better times everyone will have a still or know someone who's operating one... that's your competition... go for quality, b/c that is what will be rare Last Edited by Hillcrest on 12/20/2009 10:26 PM Water always wins. :sun: |
