If WWIII breaks out, the only kind of commodity investments that’ll be worth anything are canned goods, bottled water, gold coins and ammunition.

And this is why defense cuts at this time are unwise.
Nothing is in place to acceptably replace the Pax Americana.
I have had the desire for the past two months to start writing a dystopian novel set two to three decades from now. But real world events seem to be spiraling out of control to a point where I dare not imagine where we end up.

Sold off my portfolio three-four years ago, per Glenn Beck. Lost nothing.
Won't ever go back.

China does not care about feeding people...they merely give the developed countries lip service about improving the quality of life for the Chinese consumer.

If I were the American president faced with imminent war with the ChiComs, I’d preemtively nuke em. Nuke em good.
No way I’d go toe to toe with a billion chinks.

The ChiComs will be over here whenever they think they can win. They want our land and our women. The will grow food on our land, and they will raise more Chinese with that gigantic surplus of Chinese men that they have.
We are actively encouraging it by letting our selves become weak militarily and industrarly. It is impossible to have a strong military without a strong industrial base. It is as it always was and ever shall be. Our children will pay for the price of our mistakes in their blood. They may curse our names.

So they’ll go the way of the NORKs ?
Probably not. But I don’t see them lobbing missiles to increase food imports.
I do think Faber was on the right track in the video (especially calling Bernanke a liar :))
But I’d be surprised at a “world war” scenario like we’ve seen in the past unless it was, remind me if you’ve heard this before, “religion based”.
Even then, that is decades off.
A world war is based on long term gains of property, or ideology.
What we will see is increased regional conflict based on sheer survival.
That being said, obsolete treaties may draw in “partners in conflict”, but for my two cents (laughter allowed), I don’t see a global conflict.

“You don’t want to hold gold in America, where expropriation is a possibility, as happened in 1933.”
It’s ok....the gold is in the back of my gun safe.
So, expropriation might be costly.....
