I’m not sure who it was, but there is a comedian that does a skit titled White People Problems ( one might correctly surmise that said comedian was of African ancestry ). It’s a lot funnier when he does it, but imagine a nasally whiny nerd screeching in pain as his cell phone is too complicated and giving him fits. Or, a Suit is sitting in his BMW screaming at traffic for slowing down and making him late for work. Or, alternately, even someone complaining about going to work. The point being, these aren’t real problems but problems that are a result of good fortune or circumstances. This is not to say that the problems and resulting stress aren’t real. They are very real and cause just as much stress as, say, marital problems with an alcoholic spouse or having a child in trouble with the law. It is just that folks down the socioeconomic ladder have a hard time sympathizing with your problems because usually, a good day to them is still worse than a bad day to you. A case in point that all but a thousand people in this country can relate to is the Charlie Sheen Drama. Poor little rich as a mother humper, getting laid like a pipe in a plumbing shop spoiled bitch is getting drunk to drown his problems. I’m sure they are legitimate problems to him. I’m not belittling that or him. But the saying that you’d rather be miserable and rich comes to mind.

Being rich isn’t a goal to me. I don’t care if someone earns $5 million a movie or a sports season. More power to them. Yet, once they make that kind of money I also lose any compassion I might have had over their personal problems. Money can solve almost any problem ( although, conversely, NOT needing much money at all is a lot better solving most problems just because it takes you off the envy list ) so if you are having any White People Problems you should be able to buy your way to a solution. Buying a wife and dog solve the loneliness issue. Health should never be an issue unless you get an incurable disease. If you are bored, money can cure that. Sure, you have the problems associated with being too wealthy. I just don’t care about them. This attitude also is just as applicable from ghetto dwellers towards “normal” working lower middle class. Your problems of meeting the mortgage ( at least you have a house ), being able to pay for a repair on the Soccer Mom Mobile ( at least you don‘t have to take public transportation ), picking a proper school ( at least your kid doesn‘t get robbed, raped and stabbed at school ), being able to retire ( you can‘t retire from Welfare ), these are White People Problems. To a lot of people they are problems indicative of enviable wealth and privilege.

*

Now, I’m not talking today of things like camouflaging your wealth ( even if it is all debt based, to potential criminals it looks like wealth ). Or the desirability of frugal living. I understand that in the first case, you are peacock feather presenting for mate selection and pecking order dominance. In the second, you can’t live frugal if you’ve embraced the first. No, what I’d like to discuss today is addressing your White People Problems in relation to prepping. You live middle class, but you are having a problem prepping middle class. Because that is impossibly expensive. If you live as a couple on sixty grand a year, and are barely making the bills ( White People bills take more than sixty grand just to barely survive, as dumbfounded as I am over that ), imagine the cumulative expense of duplicating that lifestyle for five or ten years. Then triple that because you are adding security and asset protection to the mix. Needing a quarter to a half million dollars to survive the Apocalypse is the White Persons Burden ( with apologies to Cecil Rhodes ).

*

I won’t make fun of you for your cement castle on the hill surrounded by golden fields of grain. There will always be Charlie Sheens in the world with better retreats than you. All I’m asking you to do is ask yourself if any prepping dilemma is in fact an actual issue or just a White People Problem. Look at it from that perspective. Would a ghetto dweller approve of your problem, being able to relate, or would he make fun of you? Oy, veh, moans the white person, I can’t afford an AR-15 and a hundred magazines and twenty thousand rounds of ammunition. To which, said poor bitch moans that he’d rather not have to pick up a chunk of concrete and go bash in the head of Tyrone The Pimp to get his Saturday Night Special, just to be armed with anything at all. White person groans in consternation, for the love of God, I can’t afford all the freeze dried food cans I want for a varied and tasty diet. And the ghetto inhabitant answers, he sure wished he could afford a bag of rice for something extra to stash.

*

I’m not saying those in the ghetto are all genuinely disenfranchised and oppressed. A lot are just smoking each day away with crack, genuine losers and slackers ( white boys show more class by drinking away each day, genuine losers and slackers ). My point here is that those who are actually stuck at their economic level ( such as the 99 week unemployed former Union worker who can’t find work unless the economy grows green shoots out its ass ) and can’t get out have genuine problems of survival. Not artificially contrived ones. No one has a genuine problem with getting ready for the life long decline in living standards. They have a problem accepting their living standards must go down. The notion that you will remain pampered through an economic and energy collapse is so pathetic, I laugh at your Charlie Sheen Problems. Deluded puke. Grow a set of testicles, you have no idea what real problems are.
