The Five Stages of Collapse

Hmmmm sounds familiar... ;-)

"Because if we do that, we may yet succeed in finding ways to cope. We may learn to dodge financial collapse by learning to live without needing much money. We may create alternative living arrangements and informal production and distribution networks for all the necessities before commercial collapse occurs. We may organize into self-governing communities that can provide for their own security during political collapse. And all of these steps put together may put us in a position to safeguard society and culture.

Or we can just wait until everyone starts agreeing with us, because we wouldn't want them to look foolish."

This article is packed full of some good stuff.

This about says it all:

"But sometimes the picture is clearer than we would like. In January of 2008, I published an article on "The Five Stages of Collapse," in which I defined the five stages, and then bravely stated that we are in the midst of a financial collapse. And ten months later it doesn't seem that I went too far out on a limb this time. If the US government has to lend banks over 200 billion dollars a day just to keep the whole system from imploding, then the term "crisis" probably doesn't do justice to the situation. To keep this game going, the US government has to be able to sell the debt it is taking on, and what do you think the chances are that the world at large will be snapping up trillions of dollars of new debt, knowing that it is being used to prop up a shrinking economy? And if the debt can't be sold, then it has to be monetized, by printing money. And that will trigger hyperinflation. So, let's not quibble, and let us call what's happening what it looks like: "financial collapse".

It seems though, I maybe wrong, the collapse of Soviet Union, the people seem to adjusted to their circumstance well. I think that for most Americans, when this is comes to past, the pain is going to be a lot worse due to the fact we though we were the best.

wow great stuff. Well written.

Pretty chilling report there. My gut says it's pretty on target.

He states that it would require hyperinflation to the tune of about 1300% to demonitize the debt.

Thank you,, When it comes down to it speculation is all we have, But an educated guess is better than speculation.
