I disagree with the previous review.
I found my pen and highlighter working overtime with this well written and insightful perspective on the systemic problems America (and much of the world) are facing. As much as the title sounds like surviving (bullets, beans, bandaids, hunker down) kind of thing it is completely the opposite. It addresses how and possibly why the Stuff might hit the Fan, and how a 'Best' solution is community and relationship with community.
I work in the Private Wealth Services business (30 years), and have purchased 6 copies for friends and associates. NOT because it give investment advice - it gives none - but because it so clearly highlights many of the root issues that have gotten us to this point ( Debt Saturation, Nanny State over-reach,etc.).
AND, this guy is a WRITTER - I mean a 'Real Deal' Writter...not a hack. He thinks, and he Writes. He does both VERY well!
