Yes, exactly. The fiat system is headed for the crash probably sooner than any of would like, so being prepared on multi-levels is the only way to go.
We have been preparing for the big crash for over 10 years. We thought the 2008 blip was the start. But I know now that when it happens, it will be catastrophic.
My dad was born in 37, so he grew up in the aftermath of the Great Depression. He shared with me that farmers did okay because they could grow their own food. The people that really suffered were the ones who lived in the cities. Back then, there was about 50% farmers, 50% urban.
Today 2% of the population are farmers and the vast majority of them are corporate farmers. so if we had another great depression, it won't be anything like what happened in the late 20's and 30's. This crash will make that period of time look like a tea and crumpets party. I am deeply concerned and encouraging everyone to get off the grid and start growing their own food.
I thought 08 was 'it' too...I can't believe how they've dragged this out!! How many more bailouts and QE's will we see???
Not too many more I suspect. :'(
I feel fortunate that myself and close family and friends have taken the many warnings seriously @wwf . Here where I live the majority of people think and live the same way. We do a lot of bartering, I only go out once a month for supplies but if I couldn't make it out for some reason I know I can now find enough food and medicinal herbs that there would be no need for panic.
However as I look at the big cities with the majority of the population, I see how quickly their lives will change in just 2 to 3 days and will create a chaos like we've never seen here in this country. Some of the recent devastating hurricanes and fires should wake people up to how delicate their livelihood really is, but unfortunately most haven't realized that being prepared for anything and everything these days is worth their while.
I agree with you Vickie. It brings great sadness to be a witness to how blind people are. Their dependency and faith in the system is absolute and I'm not sure what will shake them from that blind faith that they hold so dear. <3
We would all be better for raising our own food. I too am terribly concerned what will happen when the crash happens. It certainly won't be pretty.
It's also important to realize that the people on the farms who survived owned their land. Land that belonged to the banks was repossessed. It's really hard to do today but debt free is true freedom. When my father-in-law was young-ish (during the depression) his father owned his land but his uncle didn't own his. The uncle was able to pull his house next-door onto his brother's land the night before the bank took his land so he was able to keep his house.
I agree. More specifically, out west during that period of time, the dominion land grant gave feudal tenures away to individuals so that they can possess the land if they met the criteria for homesteading. People don't actually 'own' land but are rather in possession of a grant from the King at the time to 'possess' the land. With that said, there were little to no mortgages on all that land to have it all foreclosed on. So the families could ride the storm.
That will change now as most families are swimming in debt.
truth! Only large companies get to bailed out!
