I'm trying to allow myself to imagine how horrible this scenario you paint for our future is... This is our Future? Living like a bunch of wretched, Post-Industrial Barbarians, everyone reduced to the lowest level of ignorance and crudity? Reverting to barter as an economic system? Backward, Ugly, open savagery because people can't resolve their differences peaceably? The solution to every social problem: "get more ammunition for my guns"? Fuck it! I'm Gonna Shoot Myself In The Head With My 9 !!

@CosmicFork Why would you do that? If you did, that would only prove that you were part of the problem. All I'm doing is essentially laying out the possibilities. You prepare for the worst and hope for the best, but no, I don't think our future is necessarily the worst case scenario. It's far more likely that we'll survive, be put on a new currency system, and be saddled with a government that is far more tyrannical and controlling.

Friend, money will be absolutely useless. I mean absolutely. Necessities will be the new currency... socks, coats, pain relievers, ammo, vitamins, seeds, tools, building materiel, firewood, fishing nets, batteries, portable solar panels, pet food, salt, and just about anything else you can imagine. People are people, and if we find ourselves living as we did in the 18th century, a pair of boots will have more value than gold. Gold can't protect you or keep you warm.

@SuperPeoplearestupid If you've entered into a lecture on the uselessness of money, then you've missed the point entirely and failed to listen closely to the content of the video.

Alcohol and ammunition will be barter. I will use $100 bills to wipe my ass with.

@theboredman1 Feel free to misunderstand and therefore, misrepresent if you like.  Enjoy the burn.

@TheValkarth Sounds like you're not in touch with reality. If you can't see the need for basic food stores during any possible transition and various means of self-defense and hunting, then there isn't much I can do for you. Sorry.

@opeth867 You First, ASSHOLE !!!

[opeth867]

@CosmicFork please do. It would just leave more ammo and food for the rest of us. If you can't handle it then quit before it gets bad.

@RedRollersMedia1 You don't know me from Adam's Off Ox, and you're already accusing me of stealing from you??? Jeeze... I guess I'll just block your paranoid ass, and move on to the next adventure!

[RedRollersMedia1]

@CosmicFork One less person trying to steal from my self sustaining farm. Thank you!

[ferdonandebull]

I have put back cannabis seeds. Grass will have value in barter and easy to raise....
