It looks like the USA is at the mercy of some very bad people. They’ll bleed us dry and then toss what’s left to the wind. IMO

Starting with US’s AAA credit rating.

Let's not forget a prime missing piece here.

The govt has bought up as many survival rations as the manufacturers can produce as far as the eye ccan see.

They obviously expect something horrible to come down.

I tend to think toward freedom. The govt stooges are around b/c of the $ & perks. In a collapse what could the govt pay them? I doubt there would be many takers. At any rate if we fall deeper into slavery its our own fault and the pols cant be blamed.

A re-boot won’t cut it. We’ll need a complete system restore.

Get the backup tapes from 1790's. Just after that things started going haywire.

I don’t doubt you, but I’d like to see the story or link to the source of this as that is a significant statement I’ve not heard. Who are the rations for, you, me or just gubmint folks/union folks?

“...you don’t want to own government bonds and cash.”

Something with intrinsic value like a relationship with God, food, and bullets.

Just a waste of missles. All they have to do is quite buying US Dollars.

“...would the military follow that order?”

Many, or most, wouldn’t, but they’d be dead in just a few minutes and the rest would kill their own mothers. The only thing keeping us from total ruin is God’s good grace.

The story about FEMA buying up millions of survival rations has been debunked thoroughly. Even the manufacturers have said it is total BS.

The story was the result of some tinfoil hat wearing survival types getting wind of a FEMA RFP (request for proposal) that was submitted to freeze dried food manufacturers as part of a planning drill, No purchase of an irregularly high quantity was ever made. The shortage seen in the marketplace was due to manufacturing issues (see Mountain House’s own statement).

“The trouble is that governments can default in two ways. Either they just stop paying the interest and there is a debt restructuring, ..... That’s the way the U.S. will likely do it.”

We are just inches away from a collapse of society.

All it will take is one reputable public figure (Allen West comes to mind) to say, “Gather together with your armed and like-minded friends and organize” and the game will be on.

Seriously ... we are that close. This debt-ceiling “cluster-bleep” showed us just how deeply and irretrievably we’ve sunk. They should have slashed the entire government in half, but instead chose to do nothing whatsoever. It’s over.

Prepare for the second American revolution. It could start any day now.
