I feel like you just avoided the subject. If everyone fully relies on someone elses agriculture for all their calories then that's putting all your eggs in one basket for an emergency. A farmer suddenly getting a thousand volunteers doesn't increase the number of potatoes ready for harvest.

Sunchokes are a suggestion because they are perennial, store in the ground, and require no care so long as they are contained.

Something like potatoes would be great for more people if they were perennial and hands off.

If you have land it wouldn't hurt to have some survival crops. Something like sunchokes (a.k.a. jerusalem artichokes, bad name because they're not an artichoke and more like a sunflower) can grow well in a sectioned off space where they can't spread. In an emergency the tubers can be dug up and cooked, though they'll probably give you a lot of gas from the high inulin content.

Personally I love raspberries and black raspberries, which are easy to grow just don't plant them where they can spread and run wild. It's nice to have fresh berries!

That would result in tons of exploitable security vulnerabilities

Here's the secret they don't want you to know: You don't need to use a straw at all. Forgo the lid and voila! You've got a cup!

The smartest house is designed with passive systems in mind. In the northern hemisphere the south and west are where you get hot summer sun. Deciduous trees planted on the southwest-west will block the summer evening sun, and then drop their leaves so you can still get winter sun.

Thank you, Neil deGrasse Tyson. I had no idea shooting a green shell couldn't be done like in Mario Kart!

I think it's pretty obvious they never heard a thing any democrat ever said, only what right wing media SAYS that 'the libs' are saying or doing

Just know that complete self sufficiency is a pipe dream, whereas community sufficiency is much more achievable
