You can rest assured the government has told you that you don’t need anything over a 10 round mag

A couple dozen regional civil wars, funded and supplied by the rest of the world, half of which the uniforms will be skin color and/or religious affiliation.

All of the USA will look like the 9th ward.

For starters, unemployment will go up to about 70% and most of those working will be government employees. The rest will fight to survive.

There’s obviously no chance of bankruptcy.
The government is the worst managers of money in the world and they’re not slowing down. Debt or fiscal responsibility are the last things on their mind.

Let the good times roll

Might’ve been that the purpose of Covid, and the $8 Trillion printed during Covid was designed to kick the can down the road and prevent a larger economic meltdown.

Would explain why all western nations wholeheartedly participated in the greatest fraud ever perpetrated on mankind.

Double digit inflation until the currency is essentially devalued to the point of being worthless. The dollar would have to be replaced and it would no longer be the reserve currency for the World. Every form of savings, pension, retirement, investment, and income based solely on the dollar would be wiped out which is why most people would try to purchase gold or silver before it happened. It would take decades to recover and much of Western Europe, Canada, and Japan would go down with us. China would likely go into a massive recession as well as India but they would survive. Urban areas would suffer far worse than rural areas but very few people are equipped to deal with that kind of hardship in the US. Millions would be unemployed and government assistance would be required for tens of millions creating sustained inflation for the new currency until trade and private investment recovers. We would need a good World War to truly recover and thin out the population

.......a wheelbarrow full of devalued dollars just to buy milk and bread.

My siblings (most of them deceased) told me what it was like during the Great Depression. Trust me, you won't like it.

Add to the desperation the swarming hungry multitudes streaming out of the inner city and you have all the makings of a really bad scenario.

Choices have consequences - really bad choices have catastrophic consequences.

President Trump is right about.........everything
