“Don’t worry about it Freepers. Get out of the urban areas now. Learn how to live off the land. Become self reliant. Believe in God - Guns - Gold - and Guts. We will make it and prosper in ways you never thought possible.”
...until a few “Technicals” show up and start firing anti-aircraft weapons at you.
On the other hand, it would take much more than an economic meltdown to get us to that point...much more likely is a dollar crash, where everything triples in price (with flat salaries). For that, it’s good to have EVERYTHING non-perishable (including cars) already in possession - something which I essentially completed last year.
Whose land will you be running around on with your family? The land you bought without a job? Do you have a list of all the land that nobody owns that you can just "have"? Are you going to steal livestock, seed and a plow to make this land livable or do you have a place where the wildlife falls dead ready to be eaten?
If you think you are going to be "living off" MY land guess again.
