Closing the Collapse - Russia Vs. USA in our Next Collapse
« on: August 26, 2016, 10:29:19 AM »
This article is brilliant by Dmitry Orlov. In essence it compares the Soviet Unions (Russia) collapse to the one that is looming here in the United States.

Although I do not agree 100% with his comparisons and the outcome, I would give it a 90% agreement score.

Warning: It is long. Please dedicate a good 15-20 minutes to read.

Bottom-line, today we rely on money for EVERYTHING. The Russians rely (ed) on barter and McGyverism.   

I will hold off my thoughts until a few of you post.

We are a money driven country.

Something breaks we throw it away and just buy a new one from Amazon.

Need some oregano for that pasta sauce. Jump in your car and drive to the market for some...Then home again.

Don't want to cook dinner - Well go out to the local eatery and order up a storm.

Just think for a minute what would happen if you had no money - What would you do to eat? Just think of all of your neighbors who live paycheck to paycheck. What are they going to do if they loose their job. Then multiply that by 50% of the households in the country.

The government will not be able to help past a certain point - Then what?

I suspect we will see a depression like we have never seen within a century. Just look at what is happening in Venezuela.

On another note: Lets say you and your family have done your part to be prepared for SHTF. Then the inevitable happens and all of your friends and family start to show up at your door. What is your plan? Take them in and inevitably your family suffers or turn them away.

I am going to start a subject line on that question.

Think happy thoughts  ;)
