AMERICA IS ON THE BRINK OF A COVID-19 INDUCED ECONOMIC CRISIS (COLLAPSE 101) * 3
    #26538146 - 03/16/20 08:38 AM (3 years, 10 months ago)

Its no secret, one does not need a crystal ball, the US economy and stock market react very badly in particular to this COVID-19 crisis.

Trump has made lots of tests available starting today, and they WILL show that the disease is much more widespread than it was according to the underreported estimates.

This will INTENSIFY the panic :panic:

This will INTENSIFY the run on the stores

This will INTENSIFY social unrest

This will INTENSIFY adverse effects on the economy.



What will happen?

What do you think will happen?  A crash, a recession, a quarantine, a perfect storm for the people.

This looms in all nations but ESPECIALLY in the United States because everything is streamlined there, there are no reserves, no buffers, as shown by a bunch of banks cascading in a fall in 2008.

Like that, but on a much bigger scale.

SHIT IS HITTING THE FAN IN THE USA IN THE SHORT TERM :shitfan:

You might want to step up your stocking efforts, and capital safeguarding efforts, on the short term, but entirely in your own way and ON YOUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY.

You can't blame crazy Asante for hand cranking the ole Carter siren here to warn you guys for an imprending worsening of the crisis.


:bitchslap: GET READY FOR ACTION, YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR COUNTRY NEED YOU :warcry:

Don't forget there was also an oil-related crash happening anyway due to the Saudis tanking the price. So that on top of the Covid thing is like a perfect storm.

Maybe the complete decimation of retirement accounts will give boomers a little empathy to the future they're leaving the rest of us.

JK, let's see what kind of short term fix they come up with that gets them through this and passes the buck to us.

True. I know most barely have enough saved to sustain even a no frills life style post retirement. Any notable loss, even if the portion of their portfolio exposed to this drop is small, I feel is significant.

But the elderly always make sure to vote in such a way as to benefit the young, selfless compassion is the goal, never self preservation at all costs.

If foreign nations, like China, which hasnt been treated nicely by the Trump regime,, start dumping dollars, its curtains for the US as a world power, and for the purchasing power of the Dollar. Trump has ordered printing 50 billion for the COVID emergency plan and God knows how much to "fill up on cheap oil.

They just might, or OPEC might say "fuck the mickey mouse dollars you're printing to grab our oil"

honestly a recession will be good for me

this virus makes me profession more in demand than ever. our collective bargaining power will increase

housing and stock prices will drop to the point where hopefully I can afford to invest

the market will bounce back eventually and I will have joined the capitalist class

assuming I don't die

I don't think it's going to get so insane. I'm willing to bet money that things won't go apocalyptic or even close. The market will normalize faster than we think. Nobody's going to have needed their stock pile.

I'm willing to admit full wrong and idiocy if my predictions turn out to be wrong.

Medicine? Alcohol? Ammunition and/or guns?

If schools and businesses closing at the same time for an undetermined amount of time due to a highly contagious and dangerous virus isn't apocalyptic then what is?

Apocalyptic is when law ceases to exist any longer, our currency becomes worth less than the paper it's printed on  and the production of goods ceases. Forever.

This is pretty bad but it's not even close to apocalyptic. Not yet anyway.

Order will break down completely. And one may think that it's broken now because grocery stores have been emptied and there has been some fights at said grocery stores, but believe me, a true apocalypse will be infinitely more ugly than what you're seeing now. There would be wide spread looting and people would be willing to kill you for your ramen noodles and water stash.

I don't think any currency would have value in the event of a true apocalypse. Crypto or otherwise.

The value would be in goods & services that could be traded.

Same reason our usd has value.

Neither is backed by anything. At least bitcoin is anti inflationary, finite and mostly decentralized

I am not really a moon boy but I do like crypto currencies though I currently don’t believe bitcoin will serve the purpose it was intended for, a global reserve currency or a safe haven for economic hardship

Wtf is China gaining from a total global meltdown? If the US economy totally collapses they get hurt too. Is this just my American Arrogance doing the thinking here? Idk, I just thing it's a convenient conspiracy theory.


If anything they're taking advantage of the chaos and are the ones that hacked the CDC right when we got hit. Fuck, I would be surprised if it was just one country that was all up in there. I'm sure there's several countries seeding complete chaos, and I sooner see China doing something like that then causing an outbreak of a virus already endemic to their region.

How come our government is telling us we have reached a point where we no longer can contain the virus?

https://www.howardluksmd.com/sports-medicine/covid-19-update-3-14-2020-concerned-physicians-unite/?fbclid=IwAR0O4FyzuO2TLsVqzsGXTRMaQ7N7wiqkf3phmDHuClN-lRxEdoKdbPRGV4Q


Yet China has contained the virus and has a fucking cure.


Something is seriously fucked up here guys.

Okay so I've seen you say that China has a cure like a million times now and not once have you actually cited it with something substantial.



We can't contain it because our government isn't (as) authoritarian as China's and thus, isn't going to beat people for walking around outside with a fever. We're past containment, because we completely botched the response to this, the group of people responsible for planning for Pandemics were fired, the government has been pretty well gutted in general the last couple years. We were unprepared as fuck, and if we were testing like South Korea or Taiwan then we'd have way more of a handle on this or idea of how far it's really reached. The virus is now endemic to US regions, like WA(and probably a good portion of the country). Meaning, it's in the environment and will occur here again naturally like the flu. This is why we're past containment. Our only real option at that point is herd immunity and a vaccine.

Gold and silver is pretty much it. That’s why you should stock up gold and guns in case shit hits the fan.


Also on a side note there are some bills on the way that might give every American 1,000$ or so during this whole thing. Surprising..in Australia they’re getting 750$ each.

It can be, we are at the brink of it, as we Fight the Virus instead for WW3.

I do get where your coming at, from the on going dispute around the SEA countries for quite sometime now.

my dad worked for an immigrant chinese bussiness man during 70's-2k and the new gen are far different from the old ones. There is a saying in their own proverbs of every 3rd generations the ancient scriptures also talks of this.

The cure is no pill or vaccine and aint a secret, its posted in the main thread and modern science is rediscovering the ancient knowledge that has been used from the past. It is also wildly use in our tropical country for dengue virus since vaccines where banned and had a bad rap due to the corrupt systems. Thats why we donate blood in our church congregation. Its in the plasma.

The problem in the west is it's not widely practiced by the medical sectors, and its implementation as we control the spread by cooperation to not overwhelm the beds as we wait for asymptomatic phase to immune phase for that plasma. Believed me, compassion and blood donations will pour on mankind as we shift away from the age of kali-yuga


more preventative measures to add as we wait.

I adviced an affluent friend to just buy a gold brick so that if the whole thing tanks, he has money left to start over.

He disregarded it as "gold brings no dividend" even while being gutted for very big sums of money.

Neither do your current investments, Skeletor :smirk:





Thats the main use of gold, having a store of value to diversify to in case the system goes belly up.

"put 10-20% in gold and pray you won't need it."

Seems like we soon will need it.

I'd like my affluent friend to become an even more affluent, more powerful friend. His main line f work benefits the development of Africa, the continent of greatest need of it.

It isnt just for him that I want him to become a Major Player.

Gold and silver is pretty much it. That’s why you should stock up gold and guns in case shit hits the fan.


Also on a side note there are some bills on the way that might give every American 1,000$ or so during this whole thing. Surprising..in Australia they’re getting 750$ each.

What would people do with gold and silver if the economy collapsed?




Yeah I'm no expert so I could (and am probably) be wrong, but I don't see how what is essentially a piece of metal would be worth anything in the event of a true apocalypse.

I would think that goods that are difficult to come by would be much more valuable.

Vodka is a good investment if things are actually going to collapse.  The strong stuff that you can use to sterilize with, or burn, as well as get drunk on.

Gold and Silver are usually a good investment for the economy getting bad, which is quite likely, but would not be much good in an actual collapse.

On one of those doomsday prepper shows that used to come on Nat Geo, there was a guy who stocked a bunker full of premium liquors and wines. He swore that it would almost certainly become a highly valuable currency/trade item in the event of an apocalypse. And you know what, I definitely thought he was onto something.

If good, consumable alcohol was hard to come by it would become very, very sought after. In an apocalypse, obviously one would no longer be able to drop by the store to grab a 6 pack or a 5th of whiskey anymore, so best believe all types of alcohols would become very trade worthy goods.

True, that's a more serious investment though and also requires a place to set it up and run it, fuel, and a source of sugar.  Also a good idea to get some distillers yeast, or at least champagne yeast.

I wouldn't go for the premium stuff as far as booze goes.  In an apocalypse anything that gets you drunk is a prize, sure, a nice wine is still even better, but the difference isn't as much as it is now.

But there will be no water to use it. Unless you hook it up to your well water.

I think the best currency will be tools, solar electricity, natural gas, and gasoline and fresh water, and pallets of soylent drink. That's what I will stock up on.

I won't be accepting any gold or silver or dollars for my commodities. Just bj's and weed.

Oh I totally agree. This is not a true apocalypse. Or even close to it for that matter.

A true apocalypse would mean all law & order no longer exists, current paper currencies would have zero value, and everyday services as we know it would cease.

There would be widespread looting. This is a case where I think film depictions would actually be accurate -- in a true apocalypse a lot of people who normally wouldn't would now be willing to go to extreme lengths to get goods that we used to take for granted

A Recommendation - Expect Service Interruptions






Dear friends: There is quite some turmoil in the world today, the Year of the Red Rooster is upon us, and symbolic of that, in charge of the most crucial chicken coop of the world, the grainery of the world, is the cockiest cock of them all, a rooster so cocky and so red that the skin of his face gets as close to red, well, orange! as a human's can possibly get.

Do not despair, but expect the unexpected. In this particular case I want to recommend all who read this to not panic but to take rational preventive measures in case of societal service interruptions.

In concreta: I call on you to take into your house food, drink, supplies and money to tide you over at least 2 weeks and preferably one month without reliance on stores, municipal water, electricity, gas for your car or functional cash machines to withdraw money from.

What do you need in 2 weeks to sustain yourself and your family? Make rational choices and shop for bargains and shelf life. Rice is a lot cheaper in the big bag, which you can store in a sealable foodgrade bucket, which you can get for free at fast food places. Knackebrot crackers, peanut butter, canned foods, a case of beer, bottled water. A first aid kit. You don't need a LOT you just need a bit of several things you need. Don't forget toilet paper and plastic bags if sanitation doesnt work. No water, no flush. Think.
Get some cash in small bills so you can make change.

It doesnt have to be much. It doesnt have to be for ten years. The world is not coming to an end but there may be brief interruptions of service in society.

If people make a rush to the stores, the stores are empty in a single day. You do NOT want to rush to the stores when everybody does, you want to stay at home on that day with your family and your supply. If the interruption is only short you will not just have enough for your family but enough to help friends and loved ones too. Instead of a victim sheep you can be a good shepherd and help the ones around you in a time of need.

Nobody has supplies. Not the stores, not the gas station, not the pharmacy, nobody has supplies anymore, they all expect there to be daily deliveries of goods. What if they don't come for a few days? Riots. You want to stay indoors or bug out in that case.

Buying in bulk is cheaper. You can save on your grocery bills and have the luxury of a little supermarket in your home in case of unexpected situations or unexpected houseguests.

Expect the unexpected. Be prepared. Do NOT live in fear, live in the COMFORT of KNOWING that YOU PROVIDED FOR YOUR FAMILY.

Don't be a fool, spend wisely, the world will not end but there may be brief interruptions in supplies in society.

The Mormons (LDS Church) are a branch of the Christian faith who believe that the end is near and that we should prepare. Me I think those times have not yet come, but the LDS did make a free preparedness manual that you can download and leaf through to read more about being prepared for calamity. There is little religious talk and much very sensible advice without too much preaching and scaremongering. Download it here, you don't have to read it now, but if the Internet should go down you'll be glad you did save a copy: LDS Preparedness Manual (PDF)

You can find a brief shopping list and some recommendations in my journal entry here: PPREPAREDNESS - Asante's 1 month home survivability recommendation Make sure to also grab a copy of BUSHDOCTOR and USARMY (these are direct downloads of .pdf files here on the Shroomery)

Don't go all prepper nut, its not necessary. You simply buy peace of mind and vital goods for yourself and loved ones. Even in case of an unexpected party, or when everybody has the flu, you'll be glad you don't have to make a store run, and you'll save money on expenses too.

Feel free to share this with friends in any way you see fit, I dont care who gets credit, just do what you think is sensible to do.

Rational choices in uncertain times.

I Love You All :heart:

You know, if you sit down with a redneck, drink a beer, or maybe smoke a bowl, you'll find they're much more pleasant than you think.

They might also be less inclined to shoot up the hippie gathering center if they are friends with some hippies.




I lived in rural SE OK for 4.5 years, and I am from Texas. I didn't hardly meet ANY "rednecks" (self proclaimed or not) that would "sit down and have a beer/smoke a joint" (even though a lot of country folks smoke/grow weed) with any "hippies" (self proclaimed or not). I found that a majority of them are racist scared freaky religious people that choose the rural life because they mostly don't have to conform to a "liberal" type society that likes gay rights, abortion rights, women's rights and so on. They keep it that way in those really small rural towns.

There was/is a white supremacist compound 6 miles from where I lived down there. Fuck the rural towns, it's not for me. They would probably be the ones to survive an apocalypse type situation though.:shrug: If that's what happens, and those people are in charge of things, I'll commit suicide! I'll be fucking DAMNED if those motherfuckers are in charge of me! Have fun out there, Y'all!

Don't go all prepper nut, its not necessary. You simply buy peace of mind and vital goods for yourself and loved ones. Even in case of an unexpected party, or when everybody has the flu, you'll be glad you don't have to make a store run, and you'll save money on expenses too.

Feel free to share this with friends in any way you see fit, I dont care who gets credit, just do what you think is sensible to do.

Rational choices in uncertain times.

I Love You All :heart:

A case of beer? For two weeks? You meant two days right?
