“If You Don’t Have Your Money In Your Pocket It’s Not Yours”
SHTF Plan ^ | 10/22/13 | Mac Slavo

Posted on 10/22/2013 6:29:43 PM PDT by Kartographer

Make no mistake. It’s coming.

And when it hits, it’ll make the crisis of 2008 look like a picnic.

We survived that one, barely, but it took trillions of dollars just to stabilize, not fix, the system.

This time around, our creditors and the people as a whole may well lose confidence. And once that is lost, look out, because as Gerald Celente notes, the happenings at Walmart when the EBT system crashed were just a prelude.

Imagine that next time around it happens to not just EBT cards, but ATM’s and bank accounts, or that the U.S. dollar itself crashes to such an extent that it is no longer feasible as a mechanism of exchange.

In such a scenario you can fully expect disruptions to food supplies and the normal flow of commerce.

The only saving grace you’ll have are the physical assets in your possession – your arable land, long-term food stores, gold and silver, and the post-collapse labor skills you’ve developed.

The time to prepare is now or you may well experience the horrific effects to come.

Bring back American jobs.

From China, and elsewhere.

Hire American. Buy American.

Of all those things your skills are the least confiscatable.

...and even if you do have it in our pocket, its value will be reduced to last resort toilet paper.

We need to create jobs in this country and then we need government not to tax and regulate out of business if they don’t move to China.

in the post collapse times, US currency is meaningless. only rare metals will have value as they cannot be easily duplicated or mined. as such, they will form a basis for the currency.

surviving the first 6 months is the trick.

stay low... stay away from the population centers... and trust no one you’ve never met before

We are saying that by the second quarter of 2014, we expect the bottom to fall out… or something to divert our attention as it falls out.

This is based on a Gerald Celente interview with Alex Jones. Celente could be spot on - on this, but he's missed a few, over the years.

Food & water / firearms & ammo / necessary prescription medications & first aid / *a very hard heart*...because if you aren't capable of saying no, you will die.

Be wiling to die to your territory. Because if you aren't, they will kill you anyway.

Uh...Mr. Johnny Onenote. None of what you said is germane to the topic at hand.
