That is where the stockpiling food thing does not seem that feasible to me. Like if it really gets to the point where there is no food for anyone to buy anymore, then society is kind of over, isn’t it? At that point, would hunkering down in a basement with supplies be the best move? Wouldn’t it be better to load up a vehicle and flee the city - just to try to put distance between yourself and the collapse? Or would there be military checkpoints between states? Would all the highways be blocked? Or if everyone is scattering in every direction, would the military even be able to stop it?
I don’t know, it just seems to me that being light and mobile with two to three days worth of beef jerky and water is the way to go. Priority is avoiding the mob, wherever it goes, and acquiring additional food in two to three day increments. The whole hunkering down in one place with a year’s worth of food only works if nobody knows who or where you are. And even then how many people in a starving mob could you reasonably defend against? A hundred? A thousand? A million? Eventually the starving mob would win.
The thing with fleeing is eventually you'll run out of places to go. Naturally you'll want to go near farmers. If you don't know a farmer by now I'd try to build a relationship with a few. If shit hits the fan you may have an area to go to that has food and water and other people to have a small community semi off the grid.
Makes me think of that meme that said something like cif city folk run out of food will harass farmers. The response is you know they talk about what gun are best 😅
Also avian flu wiping out millions of chickens. Sure, it's the virus killing them:

I feel like they want to starve people and drive up food prices to keep people distracted and afraid. Must just be another "crazy" theory.
Population is 48 hours of no food from destroying the White House.
It would be smart of them to remember this.
