Conflicted Card Game: Week 47

Conflicted is a game which consists of multiple decks, each deck containing 52 cards, and on each card is a question. The setting is in an environment where some catastrophic event has occurred. Could be nuclear war, World War III, horrible disease, economic collapse, but regardless of the scenario, no form of government really exists or if it does it is unable to help you. No calling 911, no cell phones, no internet. Its just yourself, maybe friends and family, and possibly a small group of people who can help you. Not necessarily Mad Max/Post Apocalyptic, but cohesive civilization with modern technology at our fingertips is essentially over.

Every week I will post one of the cards (selected at random), and each participant writes a response to what they would do in that situation or how they might handle it. I will let the thread run for one week, and then post a new question. Post as much as you like after giving your response. Debating and analyzing is part of the game! I won't be playing as I am the one running the game.

There are no right or wrong answers as the game is about hearing how people could navigate a stressful or perilous situation.

Deck 1 - Downfall: Four of Diamonds

It has been five years since the collapse of civilization. Clothes and shoes are in high demand but extremely short supply. Everything has already been looted long ago. Materials that could have been used as makeshift clothing and shoes are nowhere to be found. In your immediate surroundings, clothes and shoes aren't available for battering. Your only hope to clothes your family and protect them from the coming winter would be to either steal from others or to peel the clothes off of corpses and risk being infected by a disease. What would you do in this situation and why?
