I was screaming at the top of my lungs 20 years ago that all this was going to happen and of course everyone thought I was a nut. I have nothing to give anyone and will not lift a finger to help other than to say people better be prepared for eventual economic collapse. The USA is the absolute worst place to be in such a collapse because of the nature of the citizens who have existed in a bubble all their lives and have no clue as to how most people on this earth have to struggle each day just to survive. I would rather be in Kenya during an economic collapse than certain parts of the USA. It is going to be nasty. The food stamp zombies are going to explode with anger and desperation of course but the people you are going to have to really worry about are the middle americans who have a gun a few boxes of shells laying around. I am not going to resist the new system that is going to be offered to "save us". Actually I am already making steps to work with the new system. But this entire situation still pisses me off because I really did used to love my country and cared deeply for my fellow Americans. Not anymore as I am just out for myself like everyone else.
