In a cabin, on a mountain, in "Wilderness" Alaska.
If you reside in America........You have less then one year to be fully prepared. Might give that some serious reflection. Not "Kind'a" prepared, Not "More or Less" prepared.

Not looking very wonderful for the rest of planet Earth, at least the human inhabited parts.
 
OK. Based on the elections?
Because that's how I'm feeling.

There is "NO" outcome from the 2020 election that will unify America. Both outcomes will be horrific. America is 100% ready to explode. And that could happen well before November 2020.

I agree but I don't think it will be TEOTWAWKI.
We survived 8 years of BO.
You should however have your investments and finances safety'd off.
A lot of people used to looking at fat green numbers in their portfolios will see the blood pour in:eek:.
(BTW, the Dow closed above 28,000 for the first time in history Friday)

Vladimir Putin just foretold the truth about that.
 
I have seen far too many predictions of doom & gloom fail to achieve any level of fruition to get caught up in any them. If you turn off the news, go talk to your neighbors, and check out the local countryside you will find things are a whole lot better than the MSM tells us, politicians lie about, and forum postings seem to indicate. I might feel different if I lived in California or New York, but where I am at things are going just fine with a great chance of 4 more years of things getting better.

Some will likely aspire to mitigate that. Violently.

not here...place has been gutted like a fish it started downward 09-10 then picked up steam...been a huge change. if not for a very few places with money and various checks from govt like SS,SSI,etc. it would be deeper troubles.theres a few doing ok-to fine but its because of their way of life and life disciplines.drive around and you can see the effects of it on everything.my very rural and remote community is ok...but nothing changes much where theres no stores,gas stations,very limited services and limited lands..few lands sales as its handed down in families and most do everything to keep it.closest town is in shambles.

yes he did...along with many others...BRICS and more....see the trade deal going on we are not a part of? about 4billin folks are about to sign free trade deals and several already have trade deals thats been going on last few years already...but i know you know that.

Of course they will. They always have and they always will. But my people are still here roaming the Earth and living life. 90% of the battle is refusing to get drug down into the BS and giving up. No person and no circumstance can take away my faith, my hope, my patriotism, or my love of family.
 
No terrible predictions of note from me over the next 5 years. I do wonder what will happen in 2024...and after.
People forget how bad the economy was under Obama and that will be nothing compared to a decline into socialism.
Can the Republican party or the Libertarians find another Trump by then?

I would not be surprised one bit if Don Jr runs in 2024.
 
That would be interesting . . .
Will he give up the money that he can make to be president? Especially after what their family has gone through this time!
 
Yep , this country is divided politically. Always is, just worse right now .

No matter who wins 2020 , there's gonna be hatred and some incidents.

But you let Iran or some other nation assault the US, watch what happens.

As always this nation will come together, we have deeper roots in unifying , than all the political BS we are experiencing.

Economy may go down the tubes...we've been there before also ....the great depression...the world didn't end.
Tough times sure, been there.

We have to be on our best preparedness at all times.

I'm for things improving at least the next 5 years.

Guess.........you misunderstood my point. It was not about giving up. It was about redoubling effort to "Survive".
 
Could you get me that info ?

I can not find anything even close to that number during the period from 1929 thru 1937, the great depression years.

Jim
That would be over 1/3 of the current US population.
Maybe he means the entire US population's lives went in the toilet back then.
Almost everybody's did back then.

The depression did NOT end in 1937. At best one could figure some point early 1950's. The Depression started in Europe.......not on Wall Street, New York. It should be noted that the Great Depression was "NOT" just a serious American Hardship, but a massive world event.

World War Two is a major piece of the Great Depression, including it's negative and positive economic influences on the Great Depression period. And while no one will ever know the true number, it is currently estimated that one hundred and sixty million died in WW-II and most were non-combatants. With starvation being the greatest cause of death, not tools of war.

160,000,000 is a fairly impressive number.

Oh ok, thanks.

I've heard a lot of talk from people that are very smart economically and the word "Reset" is frequently mentioned, 23 trillion dollar debt to GDP ratio with a missing 41 trillion dollars, add to that the mess that has never been solved from the 2008 mortgage disaster, banks and other financial institutions that were "too big to fail" but should have. The only thing that might keep us from having major problems could be a forgiveness of debt, a Jubilee Year. It's also interesting that only about 1% of the population understands the importance of gold and silver, especially under a reset condition, new monetary system being put in place or a total breakdown of the economic system we now use, BRIC countries want to get out of the Petro dollars, US fiat dollars, they want to have a new basket of currency that is more trustworthy. Being prepared now, with food, water, extra clothing and lead is rather important, whither it happens in your life time or not, at least your family could have something to help them if rough times come after you are gone.
