IF IT WERE EASY, MORTALS COULD DO IT
I came up with this aphorism many years ago, and it recently struck me that it relates pretty well to the current state of aff airs for preppers in the United States.
Originally, it was a rallying call of sorts for the department I was leading at that time. Business had been rough for a while, and the state of the economy at the time held little promise for our job to get easier any time soon (not that it was easy, even in the best of times).
