What will happen? Just look around; it's happening already. Various states are passing nullification bills stating that any federal usurpations of authority beyond that given in the Constitution are null and void and will not only be ignored but will be actively resisted. Yes, many of these bills are 2nd Amendment-specific, but not all, and that won't continue to be the case. The federal government will collapse, but some states will survive just fine. And some will collapse right along with the feds. And you already know how to predict which are which, too.

As for me here in MD (definitely going down, hard and fast), if the collapse holds off for a few years until I can retire the wife and I are looking at Tennessee as a haven. If not, we may be there sooner.

Oh, I didn't mention the various intrastate secessions you'll see, where (off the of of my head) central PA and upstate NY may realize that they have much more in common with each other than either has with NYC, Philly, Pittsburgh, and Buffalo. The realignments won't necessarily be official, but they'll be real, as survivable areas perform triage on the walking dead leftist enclaves.

In South Korea, American Soldiers used to hire “Houseboys”. These were young Korean men who would work for the Soldiers cleaning their clothing and other chores. Among the Houseboys were a group of young Korean men known as “Slickyboys”. These young men pretended to be Houseboys, but were in reality thieves out to steal from the American Soldiers. A Slickyboy is someone who pretends to be there to help you, when his real purpose is to rob you. Obama is a Slickyboy. He’s a Slickyboy to the American citizens. He is a Slickyboy to the socialists. He is a Slickyboy to the Moslems.

The author needs several weeks to explain what will happen? And we’re to take his advice?

Once those 1st of the month checks aren’t worth the gas it takes to get to the bank to cash them, city Liberals will turn on each other first and burn their own cities down, while rural Conservatives can just pass the popcorn and wait it out.

I almost feel sorry for the Liberals for the horror that they will soon experience, but considering no group & philosophy in history has caused the human race more misery, failure and bloodshed, they will get what they deserve.

When they are huddled all alone, hungry in the dark and the mob shows up outside, and as they are being dragged out into the street maybe, just maybe they will finally grasp what a bunch of fools they have been.

What Will Happen When The Government Collapses?

Disintegration, dissolution of the union. Just look at the empires that fell mostly from pressures within: Rome, Charlemange, China (in the 1800s), British empire, Soviet Union.

Collapse usually results in alternating phases of anarchy and tyranny. Hopefully, we can create islands of stability by encouraging the civil society in red states. However, this will require the passage of state laws that discourage Leftist migration from the blue states. Promote laws that restrict welfare benefits, uphold gun rights, family values, ban/restrict abortion in addition to advancing free-market policies.

Each state is set up like an individual country. If FedGov™ collapses(in my wildest dreams -please let it happen)Your State Governor becomes your President and head of state. Good God have we forgot what a republic is? We cant contemplate life without FedGov™. How pathetic...

Good info on this thread. However, what about the military and the police? Which way will they swing? We already saw what happened in Boston. Will that happen nationwide or will some police units side with the citizens? Who will be friend or foe?

Blood will be running in the streets as people will not be getting their free stuff. Anarchy and rioting everywhere. Greece and Spain are almost there now. My daughter and son-in-law will be vacationioning in Spain next week. I should be getting a first hand report about conditions there.

The Government per se will not collapse, it never does, it actually rises “stronger” out o* the ashes le*t *rom the
chaos it created. The worse the times, history proves, the more amenable are they to be manipulated by “strong-men leaders”. Think, in this country, in the last 100 years o*
*DR and his long-delayed successor, Barack Obama.
Government won’t collapse, but the economy will continue to
erode the potential o* our own well-being, the “validity” o*
the US Constitution, and leave us with precious *ewer possibilities 4 the pursuit o* happiness.

I’m sure of one thing. We will continue paying for it.

“What Will Happen When The Government Collapses?”

You will be on your own so get prepared to be self sufficient.

What will precipitate the collapse will be a tyrannical government or even a dictatorship. I could see large numbers of states leaving the union and forming their own countries. I do not believe that the US military will follow orders to fire on American citizens so there will not be a civil war, just a collapse of the union.

PRESIDENT HAYES: So, what can we expect now that the Gao-uld have invaded Earth?

JACKSON: Slavery. Death. More slavery. Did I mention death? We TOLD you so!"

H: OK. Now that you've gotten that off your chest, is there anything you can contribute that helps?"

As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man
There are only four things certain since Social Progress began.
That the Dog returns to his Vomit and the Sow returns to her Mire,
And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the Fire;

And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!
