Prepping: 15 Things That Will Happen When The Economy Finally Collapses
2020-06-20
[SHTFplan] We should all be prepared for what’s coming next. In order to prepare effectively, we need to know what will happen when the economy finally collapses under its own weight. The creation of money out of thin air could only go on for so long, and we are approaching the end.

Epic Economist put together a great video detailing the 15 things (and yes, some are a little scary) that will happen when the economy collapses. At this point in time and history, it is no surprise that an economic collapse is coming for us. When the world’s largest economy is deep down in a recession, many other countries will not be late to follow the same path.

The financial breakdown the world is about to face over the next few years will be an unprecedented catastrophe, especially considering that the underlying problems from previous crashes were never fixed, only mended together. A real repair would require a complete restructuration in the system, and the elites were never interested in fixing the system that they set up to screw the rest of us.

#5  Welcome to the 19th Century
1. Everything will become local.
2. If you are a minority, you are screwed.
3. Power will go to those who do, not those who talk.
4. Suddenly, the people decide what's essential not politicians.
5. Those who protected the 2d Amendment will have a far greater chance to survive than those who didn't.
6. Warehousing of sociopaths will be unsupportable. Threats to what remains of society will be dealt with in a manner to eliminate recidivism.

#4  I've lived outdoors recreationally and paid perfectly good money to take a chance on drowning on whitewater rivers (can I even say whitewater now?) I've killed and cooked my own food. Actually made an improvised shelter or two. I like my chances better than Meggie Moo's or Brian Stelter's.

/\ Yes, not much has or will change. The 'downstairs' people are generally the first to suffer.
