I lived in Fla. the year 8 hurricanes hit our state; four hit the area I lived in. After all that, the state passed a law that required all gas stations to have generators large enough to pump their gas. No more huge lines; no more fights between locals and angry New Yorkers (they were always the angriest ones in line). Grocery stores caught on quickly and got huge generators so they could cash in on those who failed to prepare properly for the storm; but they were always crowded by people who appreciated the air conditioning, too! Price gouging is illegal everywhere; if you see it, REPORT IT! Those crooks who do it will be fined heavily. Can’t believe NY and NJ allow a ten cent mark up; Fla doesn’t allow any mark up above the normal price. Anyway, the only people in those long lines are the people who failed to prepare.

i should qualify my remark on generators, which was meant specifically in reference to gasoline/diesel/heating oil based types. HHO generators and various other suppressed technologies are another story.

also, if one has ample supply of fuel for their generator, then of course it wont be obsolete. but then the issue becomes, unless the generator is not noticed by other interested parties, whether one is prepared to defend their stock of supplies, and the logistics involved in that, should such situations arise…

the most practical preppers (of those who are able), concerning this matter, are located outside of cities.

Generators, though useful currently, will be largely obsolete after the hyperinflation begins. Think of how life was in the 1800s, those are the methods of how people will cope effectively in the months ahead. Society as we knew it for most of our lifetime, will become a memory. People will be forced to once again think of what really matters in life.

Micah 6.8 ” He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?”

This is a mini dress rehersal for the disasters preplanned, like the collapse of the New Madrid fault. Having a generator makes too much sense for the business owners.

In God’s mysterious, merciful ways, He allows this superstorm and aftermath to happen, so that even mockers would after all this time perhaps begin to seriously consider the practicality of emergency preparedness, instead of continually scoffing at the Christian mindset of forethought in caring for one’s family. Please all re-read the story of Joseph and the seven years of plenty, and the following seven years of famine. Whosoever is wise, take heed. Consider these things a foreshadowing of what is yet to occur, and that you are given still a space of time. Walk closely with the Lord now more than ever before, His return draws near. Pray for one another, friends, family, extended family, communities, nations, leaders, even enemies. The unsaved have no way to prepare for what will happen, they are just clueless and confused. Pray for their salvation so they will have the Holy Spirit of truth to guide them and enable them unto discernment.

And then a mobil tanker capable of dispensing fuel as patrons come out of their homes! AND NO GOUGING the consumer, same with water and food!

Just like hospital facilities, “ALL” fueling stations should have back-up power generators (should be code). Regardless of location. Oil companies should foot the bill.

This is my opinion:
The governors of the states that are hard hit should contact the governors of the states around that that is not effected and see if they could mobile their guard units to help bring in gasoline and generators to the service stations to help ease this mess; they could ask the great one for help from the army, navy, air force and marines if he would do it this is not rocket science but common sense.

Remember it’s all about the one who counts the votes?
Same here: It’s all about the one who sells the gas.

I had a muslim man and a black, female tv host cut me off from buying gas when evacuating a storm. Hatefilled, vindictive people.

I’m going to go fill all my cans now. Just in case somethings comes this way.
