Re: Collapse of US in 2 months

We can't be stuck in the 'it's going to be rotten!' OR 'it's going to be great!' modes of thinking. It's probably going to be BOTH. It's probably wise to be prepared for ANYTHING...both good and bad.

It can't hurt to have a huge hidden stash of canned foods and bottled water...stored in your Shallow Underground Civilian Base. :original:

Re: Collapse of US in 2 months

Such a "collapse" need not be a catastrophic thing. If you don't fear it at all, you disempower it, you "gut" it. For instance, consider what happened when the Soviet Union collapsed. All the Eastern European countries thought it was great, because the Russians had treated them like they were second-rate relative to Russia and the Ukraine and White Russia. Even the Russians etc had a positive experience from it, because the bureaucracy and rigidity of the Soviet system had already suffocated itself, bored itself to death.

On the other hand, it seems almost inevitable that the US standard of living will drop considerably. But what do you expect, when the US has been consuming 40% of the world's goods and resources for the last five decades while it's contributed only 15% or 20% of the world's productivity?
