I personally am looking at a trifecta to occur:

* A financial collapse or media-driven panic;
* Race riots sparked by another high-profile incident;
* Another mass casualty event involving guns.

If those happen, either in rapid succession or all at once, watch the official response from the regime. That will seal the deal, so to speak.

I think the US will be last on the list simply because we have the keys to the world's reserve currency printing press. Eventually we'll be caught up in the maelstrom as well.

I don't disagree at all with your predictions. But what I see coming when the chain reactions going on in the Middle East reach criticality, will make our economic troubles pale to insignificance.

The Utube film fellow is saying war is the mostly likely next event to bring it crashing down, perhaps next year. I am in agreement with war being the next danger for the country and swift decline during that and we could also have attacks on this country due to that war. No matter what happens, I'm ready for whatever it is in terms of preparation.

As for me, I'm sweating out hurricane season from now to October. That is my danger area now. Old Sarge, you are in Florida, so that's a possibility for you, too. As long as my house is still standing after a hurricane, I'm good. I'll still have power and water and food and fans to combat the heat - been there, done that several times.
