This has been the stuff of fiction (e.g. [[Stephen King]]'s ''The Stand'') and movies (e.g. ''[[Mad Max]]'') for decades.  It is expected that due to [[societal collapse]] the rule of law will be absent as will any form of [[transportation]] and [[utilities]].  People will be reduced to [[barter]]ing for [[goods]] and [[services]], lynch [[mob]] rule regarding [[crime]] or further decline into simple nomadic [[hunter]]-gatherer gangs.  In reality anything could happen but with [[survivalist retreat|preparation]] and dedication to principles and [[conservative values]] life even in a PAW can be satisfying and worthwhile.
