Welcome Preppers and Survivalists,

Food for Thought
"... serious preppers must admit that not all problems can have a solution."

Wives, Husbands, Friends, Colleagues, and Partners
Once you add another person to your prepping plans, you have a partner. A partner who needs to be listened to.

Spartan, my brother, has a idea on organizing a group of preppers, expected friends/family and unexpected arrivals, a vote. It's very democratic, keeping within our ideals, but you have to buy a vote.

To get a full vote, I and my family would have to purchase various food and supplies.

A short example: Everyone who wants a full vote must own a HK-91 type rifle, 10 magazines, and 1.000 rounds of 7.62 Nato ammo. If I or someone else buys a bolt-action rifle in 7.62 Nato with 1.000 rounds, they would get 1/2 a vote. If he or she buys a SKS rifle with 1.000 rounds of ammo, they get 1/4 vote. (He lives in 7.62 Nato country)

Well, Ryan, at Total Survivalist Libertarian Rantfest, has an insightful article on marital decision making that might work in any partnership.
