Winter is slowly melting away here in the U.S., and Spring will soon be upon us. Wall Street is currently flush with delight at the year long run of the stock market (driven by fiat bailouts), which at first glance appears to be doing quite well, though international incidences such as those in Dubai and Greece have revealed how shaky the market actually is in the face of any unhealthy news. In the meantime, the dollar, recently on the edge of detrimental value loss, has made a semi-miraculous recovery in the span of a few months, especially as the Euro suffers. Official employment numbers, despite the continuous loss of jobs monthly, have somehow fallen and are for the moment stabilized. Is it time for America to dust off the old credit cards and return to the wild and rollicking carefree spending days of pre-2007? Perhaps not…
While the mainstream media puts on the recovery song and dance, the fundamental problems of the collapse remain the same, and in some cases are growing ever more precarious. Subsections of the public, unaware of the real issues at hand, are holding a misguided jubilee in the tranquil eye of a hurricane, wrongly assuming that the storm has passed.

Thanks for the response. I’ve (ironically) looked at your comprehensive list before. I am planning to start reading some soon. I’m reading Patriots now, and a book called “Shatter” also. I’ll look into the ones by Mr. McGee, I’ve heard him referenced all the time. Thanks again.
I read his long dissertation a few years ago, but I don’t think it was in book form at the time, is it now? I’m interested in getting it for a friend of mine (possibly myself too, if it’s a book).
P.S. Thanks for responding.
“Thoughts on Urban Survival” is still excellent, and it’s free on the internet, but the book is greatly expanded and goes into many areas the essay didn’t cover.
Thanks for the info, I’ll be sure to look into it. By the way, where is the best place to pick up your book(s)? Online store, or a specific retailer?
Amazon is easiest.
