goodtoyou13: I'm wondering what people think about conspiracy theories, especially about the US and upcoming events?
I met someone on another site who was convinced we are going to collapse. He sent me many links and told me how he had prepared and wanted to come live with me and take care of me and mine. Of course, I didn't take him up on it, not wanting to use him, but just wanting to remain friends, until he started criticizing the way I write. So, I ended it, as quickly and nicely as I could.
However, it did make me think. Yet, I'm praying, as hard as I can, we will all be safe. For I think our government always has checks and balances to prevent that, don't you think?
I would like to know, if anyone thinks the same, if there are checks and balances in place? I also think the American people, ourselves would make sure that doesn't happen. Now, if we can get those lousy rich people out of congress and the senate, perhaps we would all be better off. For, I think they are trying to rid the world of the poor and the middle class, wanting all there is for themselves. Making sure the lower and middle class will just die off.
Yet, still, I remain hopeful. What are all your thoughts?
an economic collapse would be a cakewalk compared to what i believe is coming . it really doesn't matter if you believe something bad is coming or not one should always prepare for the worst while hoping for the best .
The aconomy will collapse as it has collapsed before, we are Americans. America is and will always be AMERICA, the land of the free. Money will never be the god of this Country, freedom is.

Countries and/or great empires are nothing more then lines on a map. They grow large and shrink to nothing eventually. All great empires have died,the states are no exception to that. That has nothing to do with conspiracy theories. It's just the natural order of things. Would the Romans ever have believed their great empire would die out? Would the Egyptians ever believed all that would be left of their great empire is old crumbling pyramids in the sand? No they would not and that is why people don't believe it now. It's human nature.

Wish some economists would then explain:- "How come our rand/dollar exchange rate is - R10 vs $1 US?" Yet, decades ago our currency strength was R2 = 1 UK pound! something doesn't gel!
Also if you take a developing nation, eg India...a decade ago their currency was 30 rupees = 1 US $ Now it is 60 rupees for 1 US $! Does not make sense, currencies are being manipulated!
GUZMAN1: I had to google SHTF. Naturally, a big disaster could cause a collapse, but except this case, I still believe that the economy will stand.
There aren't really other options, since people prefer a bad paid job than to live like the survivalists propose.
I don't think you quite understand what SHTF means. Basically it's the death of the old in favor of new. No human civilization has ever been able to prevent it from happening.
If you think it's worth the risk to hope everything is okay and not prep for the other possibility, then you are putting everything you have on black at the casino.
That's not a good plan.
If it comes up red, those tranquilisers you mentioned will get hit hard by the people who didn't bother.
This documentary is aimed at a collapse in Britain, but bear in mind this should be a global phenomenon. No country will be exempt from the details here:

No, we are(the West)is going to go back to the same mistakes we made before until it all blows up in our stupid faces.
In England the only region that's even begun to make the changes necessary - simply: boost in manufacturing and exports - is working class Northern England. The middle classes are still very much living with the credentialism/debt/makework that brought the Western world to its knees. I imagine that the rest of the West tells a similar - some improvement amongst the reality-literates with untroubled Liberal suburbia carrying on with more of the same child-murder and debt.
