I've seen and heard too many stories of when asked what someone that is not prepared what they would do in case of disaster. They would show up on their "prepared friend's" door step.

Excuse Me. I think not.

While survival is a team sport. the folks I want on my team are those that are prepared to be in the game not some freeloader. Now if a fellow preper should happen to loose everything shows up I would be much more likely to help. Rather than someone that expected my preps to make up for their stupidity.
