Everyone should prepare for what lies ahead. In normal times, one should save something for retirement. Whether they invest in stocks and bonds (a bad idea now, given how bloated these markets are today), in gold and silver, or in other hard assets, or a mix of the above, having something is a practical necessity. For sure, joke-hova is not going to supply you with anything, and neither is the washtowel.
And they don't plan for calamity, either. The "Time and unforeseen occurrence befalls all" line they spout out means nothing, either. Are you prepared for a snowstorm? A hurricane? Most jokehovians are not. And they are not prepared for an intermediate-duration supply disruption, such as what I am expecting for this pandemic. They would not be ready for a three day grid down blackout--that exercise in November 2013 is a good drill to see how ready you are if the power goes out, say for a bad storm. They trust too much in joke-hova, who wants as much suffering as possible to harvest energy to enslave the whole planet.
Is it really that hard for them, in normal times, to spend a few toilet papers on a silver dime or quarter from time to time instead of giving it to the washtowel? Or, to put a bit into a retirement savings account? When you are expecting a supply disruption or power outage, is it too much to buy a few extra cans of soup or a tub of peanut butter at Krogers instead of wasting it on joke-hova? Or, a few candles and/or batteries? The gas they waste on field circus could have been better spent on the above. It might not be that much, but it is better than nothing when an emergency happens.
Or, what about getting a decent job instead of pious-sneering? That is how people end up broke in the first place. The extra 15,000 or 20,000 per year could buy a bit of retirement nest egg, whether in paper assets or physical assets (or a mix of both). It can also mean being better able to prepare for short- or intermediate-term emergencies such as this pandemic.
All I know is, if the jokehovians start begging and pleading me for any food during this coming supply disruption, batteries for a storm blackout, or silver when they have nothing for retirement or the dollar becomes toilet paper, I will tell them in German "Dass ist Pech für dich!" (meaning "that is just too bad").
