When resources are gone and the economy is shattered, we're dog eat dog.
Do you know how to survive in this scenario?

Do you like how our "leaders" of the last 25 years (with no 8 year reprieve, sorry) have set up our country for this massive failure?

Can you survive in this scenario or get away with what it takes to survive; the increase of security cameras in even the streets is noticeable.

I sure as hell don't. Or can't.

How about you?

Do you have what it takes to survive the Apocalypse?

They are preparing for martial law. I can't blame them. Though I doubt they need to bother.

There will come a time when people will have to band together to survive... or hide under a rock and do what they had read in "Final Exit". I'm opting to do the latter because people are too ignorant and/or indolent to fight fascism (our forefathers would be soooo proud :sarcasm: ), and I've been so disheartened with humanity that it'd take a lot of talk to get me to fight back. The bullies cemented their power a long time ago and they're not worth it.

This is what is coming and we don't know when.

The dead will be better off, so look for the aforementioned book title or others like it.

Or convince me that there is no crash coming, that offshoring isn't hurting our infrastructure, the increasing debt isn't real, and so on.

1. No, We will follow the Cuban model, gardening!!!
By gardening organically people can raise everything but their grain requirements on 1/4 acre lots. The Cubans had to do this when the Soviet Union collapsed.

The Iraqi's are now proving that military control of a defiant populace is not viable. American Fascist police, like the U.S. Army cannot govern from inside a Humvee.

2. LOL. 350 million Americans... how much garden space do we need in order
to eat for a year?

I can eat 4 pounds of broccoli florets in under a week. That's a lot of growing.

Oh, I can't afford any land that God created but satanist pigs put a money value on and force us to buy into.

3. What Makes You Think The Resources Are Gone?
Less oil maybe, smaller timber too. But the resource base of this country has hardly been scratched.
