"As we approach what many say will be the "Greatest Depression" I was inspired to combine lists into items needed in hard times. What follows is a list of lists covering areas that sustain the average family.
Most US families have no such checklist. Good times, as far as we can remember, don't inspire planning for hard times. We've been immune from such worries for 65 years since the end of World War II. The average historical memory is probably only 20–30 years."
