No doubt it’s about to get very very bad. Maybe, just maybe, we can come out the other side a better place to be. We might also totally collapse like the Roman Empire.

Im 100% with you man.
People will likely wish they were back in quarantine days when 2020 starts to flip to 2021. On top of the current ills, and US politics, China is quickly going the way of 1930s Japan. The Dragon wants the world, and is heavily invested in the Middle East and Africa. Once they take Taiwan, then flip on the US, and Israel, it’s going to get real. The countries in pink and red have money net flowing into China, and will likely side with China if they share a hatred for the US.

Quoted: One failed coup attempt after another for three years, and as the Trump admin closes in on the most corrupt and blatant, they have taken the gloves off and are prepared to burn us all out to stay in power. This year we almost went to war (except we were never really close), then we had a pandemic that didn’t kill enough, so we had a season of widespread riots that still hasn’t turned the country against Trump, so we are back to pandemic with rioters for enforcement/leverage. Next, Hillary and company are going to testify in September. So their only chance is to ratchet the chaos up to 12. And they will, they have no problem stepping on the bodies of anyone to get what they want. So after 17 weeks of being stagnant, my company and all of my employees are starting to feel it deep. We lasted 4 months without much impact other than changed plans. Now.... I’m focused on prepping. They won’t stop till I’m dead and my children torn from me and ‘re-educated’ or killed in front of me. Another peaceful, middle class white guy backed into a corner. Heaven help us, we’ll need it. They can't make a commie utopia without breaking a few eggs first. I'm right there with you, btw. |

I prepare as I've always done but I also have come to grips with the fact that at 47, retirement and grandkids looks bleak because I will most likely die in a gunfight in the near future defending liberty. I'm totally fine with that. I want my wife and adult children to have a solid situation first.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Post those prep ideas OP. I started this way.... I got on my knees 15 years ago and asked God what I should do. In a month I will have the ability to feed my family quite well, and twice our number of refugees, but I’m afraid govt thugs and envious men will try to take what I’ve built and saved. In the end, my faith is in God not bullets, beans and bandaids, manna can fall from heaven if it’s needed. But I’m still getting mad in the meantime. Good and mad. Fighting mad. I highly doubt I will die a peaceful death as an elderly man, but I want my wife and kids to. |

I have never stopped working, I have never stopped trying and I have never been fearful this year. But I have contracts with large corporations that have shut down and sent everyone home.... there is no work being done. So we starve, against our will. I am taking every bit of work I can find because counting the families of my employees, I have nearly 40 people depending on us earning a living, and we are all ready and willing. Functioning economy? Damn right. I’ll sell eggs in six months and be rich, if I’m not killed for them. |

Nothing wrong with hoarding of rice and beans, but the most likely calamity we’ll face is either Economic or Health related.
Therefore, getting debt free and healthy, is the best Prep. And have legit savings. At least a year or two. |

I agree with you, but I honestly don’t see any limit to what the global Marxists will do, so I am more diverse than that. Actually, I’m getting bled dry. I think it’s been pretty amazing that we’ve had a 90% drop in revenue for over 4 months and we are just starting to hurt, one employee told me he’s sending out his resume and I’m trying to help him find something. Another is day trading, making $200/day or so, but at least she’s covering for some of what we’re not making. A savings account isn’t where my investment is. It’s in my education, my company and my ability to provide valuable services. I still have that, but fraud has rendered it nearly worthless for supporting my family. |
