Surviving the Economic Collapse

August 31st, 2011 | 10 Comments

Think about it; your house is worth 50% less than 3 years ago, your 401K is sitting at 2008 values if you still have a 401K, your home equity lines used up, credit cards have cut your credit, your emergency fund was used one year ago to put your son into college, and you visit the dollar store weekly. My how your life has changed. Are you ready for this; I wonder if your REALLY ready for this?

Things are about to get much worse very soon.

In fact you will look back at those trips to thrift stores and still being able to drive your own car as the “good old days”. Let me tell you what I see coming down the pike economically for America. It will not be easy to read, it may make you mad, you might not believe it. I am not posting this information up on Faith & Survival today to make any friends, to try and sugar coat the truth, I am going to just type and what you do with it from here is up to you. Perhaps pray on this, maybe print it out and put it up on your calendar, heck send this to every person you know to open there eyes.

I am going to focus on the economy. MANY events will have different effects, such as war, and terrorism. I can not tell you which event will take place first, but I can tell you based on current economic policies, history, and research what is coming next economically. The time frame is 3 to 9 months from today. I base my information from the hundred articles I have published on this topic, conversations with the Lord, and my knowledge of money, accounting, and finance.

The future battle ground:

Our economy is nothing more than a house of cards. Every time another law, (card) is placed onto the people the house becomes more unstable. As more money is printed more cards are being placed. When taxes are enacted or raised the house grows higher and higher. What will be the last card to drop the house?

The dollar no longer recognized as the worlds reserve currency
Quantitative Easing 3 or 4
Gold reaching $3,000.00 per ounce
A bank holiday in which your accounts are “re-evaluated” by 1/10th of there formal balances
Gasoline at $6.00 per gallon
Unemployment at 15%, 20% or 30%
Stock Market collapse of 50%
Housing values reach 1970 levels, (that has already happened in many major cities)
Entire cities economically wiped off the map, (been to Detroit, Oakland, or Philadelphia lately)

I would argue it won’t be any one of those horrible economic statistics or events. I would argue it will be one thing:

A LOSS OF FAITH!

A Loss of faith in the system!

A Loss of faith in the system by a majority of the people!

A Loss of trust in our government, our its ability to function for the people!

A Loss of trust in the dollar bill that you hold in your hand, carry in your wallets, stuff in your purse, have sitting in your mattress, or look at the electronic balances of in your bank accounts!

Did you notice how I just formatted that as a house, a house of cards. I believe our economic collapse has already started, I believe a loss of faith has become a reality for about 10% of the population. As more and more Americans are waking up to the enslavement of the federal reserve, the fraudulent money fiat system, a government no longer working for them but against them, and a media that is nothing more than teleprompter reading whores for the global elite and multinational corporations, the house of cards will crumble more and more. What today is the breakfast nook falling down the cliff, tomorrow will be the master bedroom, followed by the family room. Soon you will be staring at only the garage of America still standing and wondering, what now?

This house of cards is GUARANTEED to fall because it was built on a faulty foundation. The soil was never compacted, and the re-bar was not set right. No matter how many times the “money masters” try to support the foundation, no matter how much the media screams we are in an economic recovery this house WILL FALL.

The question is, how can you get out of this house before it falls on you? Here are the 5 steps I would do if I were you and have done myself.

Firm up your relationship with the Lord. Now is the time to turn off your TV, shut off the radio, open your bible, the torah, get back into scripture. Memorize KEY points that shout out to you. You cannot love both money and God for you will hate one and love the other. Nation will rise against nation. Do not worry about tomorrow because tomorrow will have enough troubles all of its own. Find those Key points of scripture, commit them to memory. I am typing this without the bible open next to me, and I could go on for about another 500 words alone just from my memory. You should have this same passion for GOD right now, for our future, your future is in his hands.
Get real Money. Since you were born you have been sold a bill of lies that the dollar is money, IT IS NOT. It is nothing more than fancy colored paper designed to look “official”. It is not backed by anything but the full faith and credit of the United States. I don’t know about you but I have NO faith or credit in the United States as it stands today. You must convert what dollars you have left into Gold and Silver bullion coins. I know you “think” it is a bubble, you wish you had bought it when I told you to buy it one year ago, when Silver was $17.00/oz and Gold was $1,300/oz, but you did not. So you have a choice continue to hold dollars and know they will soon be WORTHLESS, or convert to gold and silver, it is that simple.
Stop investing in your 401K or IRA, and PULL IT OUT. Right now your 401K accounts are being used as collateral to the federal reserve for the $14 trillion dollars of federal government debt. Don’t believe me, do your homework. Why is it MANDATORY that all 401K’s transmit to the IRS every year all 401K account balances? Why are there bills sitting in the house of representatives that would make it ILLEGALLY to withdraw your 401K’s? You must do everything in your power to get your money out, and either convert it to physical gold and silver, or use that money to buy food and supplies to survive on. It is that simple.
Think about goods and possessions like they did when it was the early 1800′s. During that time period, there was not paper money, or refrigeration, or electricity. People survived just fine but lived MUCH different then we do today. You have to start to place yourself into the mindset and lifestyle of that TIME PERIOD. If they did not have checking accounts how did they pay for things, if they did not have refrigerators how did they store their food. Once you start to think about surviving day to day without electricity, running water, and tax burdens, then you will start to REPROGRAM your brain. Instead of wasting your money on stuff, you will start buying supplies and gear that will help you survive the house of cards falling. You will no longer keep thousands of dollars in a bank account but you will buy seeds, dehydrated food and water. In the 1800′s they BARTERED, and that bartering will be coming back real soon.
Become MOBILE. We have set our lives up in our homes, our mini fortresses, our American Dreams. Well for the 4.6 million people that have been foreclosed upon in the last three years and the 30 million people that it effected that home is no longer their dream, and it MUST NOT BE YOURS ANYMORE. If you have set your life up around your house what happens when the house of cards falls. When the economy collapses further soon law and order will be no more, soon looting, raping and pillaging will be the order of the day. You need to become mobile. You need plans on where to move to with your supplies and family. You need maps, and strategies that don’t use cell phones or computers. You soon will need the help of others whom are preparing like you, If you believe the government will leave you alone and that your gun will stop anyone from coming into your house, I am the bearer of bad news, It will not. YOU MUST GET MOBILE.

The next 3 to 9 months will bring more economic pain to Americans. Inflation, rising unemployment, and declining value of the dollar are guaranteed. Soon we will watch as Americans take to the streets in civil disobedience just as in Europe. Curfews will be enacted, more taxes and austerity will be placed on us. Will we reach the tipping point on the house of cards? Only time will tell.

God Bless You

God Bless America
