Why collecting rain water is so important - Economic crisis country living series

In the midst of the united states and other countries facing economic crisis or worse, collapse, there are many people who are wanting to move to a more rural area for safety and sustainability. Even those who study end time prophecy and feel that we are heading into the tribulation period that the prophets of the bible tell us about are looking to get further out in the country. Scutter starts a new series on his channel teaching city people what it is like to move to the woods and survive country life. It isn't as easy as it sounds. Sure you get more peace and quite, you get a much closer view of nature and wildlife and you don't have the hectic rat race of panicked city life. But there is much to learn about living in the country as it can be very different than a city dwelling. We will be discussing things like wildlife, hunting, fishing, fire pits, building things from recycle materials, gardening, cooking from scratch recipes, food storage, livestock, dealing with seclusion, emotional aspects of country life, trading, junk dealing, septic tanks/systems, clearing the land, pitfalls and dangers and much more!

In this video scutter talks about helpful tips about collecting rain water for the gardens and/or to keep your family alive.

If this has been a blessing to you, please consider stopping by my AVON store and taking a look around at all the great products and possibly placing a small order. It helps keep us going!! Here is the link:

One problem with this is mosquito may breed in the buckets of water if they sit for a long period of time.  Probably the window screening might help. But yes thats a good ideal overall.

[scutter4christ]

@Vox0707 One of the things you can do, if you aren't going to use the water completely immediately is to stir the water daily pretty good and that breaks up the mosquito's from laying. Of course it needs to be a pretty brisk stir, not a gentle one. :o)

You can also get some kind of netting or even cheese cloth and scoop the top of the water and that will help.

I just found out yesterday that I guess in parts of Utah, Colorado, and Washington...it's illegal to collect rain water on your own property. I couldn't believe it.

[scutter4christ]

@photohelix Yeah, I read the article too. It was sent to me in one of the survival groups that I am in. I've had several people mention it so I guess I should do a video about it.

It was kind of funny reading some of the responses people had to that news. Needless to say, they were none amused.

You better be careful brother, big brother might fine you or put you in jail for collecting rainwater. I'd laugh if it wasn't so sad.

[scutter4christ]

@Cstrife234 Yeah, I'm not to worried about there here. But I did read an article about that yesterday where it's actually against the law in some places.

It all comes down to do you trust your area during an economic collapse? If not, you should be making plans to leave and not to the next town but to a different county or state if needed. Even if you have to break your lease or mortgage. Just get out of there. Plus, if your telling people to prep and you are showing them everything you got, you don't want to be the guy that's known for having a supermarket in your house.

@hstone39

What about traveling? How long does it takes for you to get to one place to another? Is a car always needed?

Just think about it, when an economic collapse happens people are going to look at it like the rules don't apply anymore and people who don't usually commit crimes will commit crimes..........

People shouldn't be judging because they don't even take the time and analyze the situation and moving is an very accurate decision.

[hstone39]

@hstone39

Moving is a big part of being a prepper because you don't want to be around people you had arugments with, people who are jealous, people who don't like you, people who wants to see you fail, and people who are not unlocked from the matrix and people who don't want to be unlocked from the matrix. If anybody have this problems they need to get the hell out of there and move far. You may be well prepared but your believe that you will have to protect everything you have.

[hstone39]

@hstone39

Is your friends are your real friends and not the type that smiles in your face but behind your back their enemy? These are the things you have to analyze in your area and you should think about how everything will play out during an economic collapse.

[hstone39]

@hstone39

Do you feel like people you know or strangers in your area will turn against you when this happens? Let' say you completely prepared and have a lot of food, guns ammunition, gold & silver and everything else you need and when the time comes, do you feel like you can leave your house without your being robbed of everything you got? Do you trust the police in your area? Is there silent disobedience within the community where it feels like everybody is working against you?

[hstone39]

It's time to put the capstone on why I moved. If your in an area where you can't get people to listen to you about the economic crisis or the new world order then you should make plans to leave that area. The reason why I left because I don't trust a soul where I use to live. That's the first thing people should look at before they even start prepping. Is your area good enough for you and your family to stay when the economic collapse happen?

Remember the 1st few minutes of rain will be washing bird droppings bugs etc off your roof. I have 2 blue 55 gallon barrels connected to my down spouts with an over flow covered with screens to keep bugs out. I wouldn't drink it without filtering but I imagine its clean enough for my britta to clean.

@RicoRicanNYC Sodium fluoride actually will increase the absorption of aluminum into the body (from cooking with aluminum and stuff like deodorant/antiperspirant) and I read that Alzheimer's patients have a lot of aluminum in the brain. Sodium fluoride is a poison (in rat poison) and if I'm not mistaken its a byproduct of certain nuclear processes. People think legal = law. It's not. If god made rainwater lawful to drink, then Caesar makes it illegal, so you have to buy his municipal water.

[Vox0707]

@scutter4christ that would probably work :)

@crappyblabla yes, when I use last year's seeds, or seeds I saved myself, I have better luck getting them to sprout if I avoid the chlorine-y tap water & just use rainwater.
