    I also think that the 10 year timeline for a major crash is now starting to look highly probable, and it is a scary thing to live through without a question. I got to experience USSR collapse first hand, and that was pretty wild. I suspect that US collapse could be worse because US lacks a lot of social support structures that were present in USSR. A couple of specific things that could make US collapse worse are lack of public transit and the fact that a lot of people don't own their homes. The society is very divided as well, which could lead to a lot of violence as things continue to unravel. At this point I really don't know what to expect, but I can guarantee it's not going to be good.

      I forgot about that, your living through the USSR dissolution! I'm glad you're okay, that was a very wild time.

      Here we are, on the brink of experiencing a similar situation. It's not going to be good, you're right. But long term it could be a huge catalyst for the major liberation of the world

        Indeed, I tend to remain optimistic on the whole. As bad as things are gonna get, at least there will be a path towards better things after. And the sooner the nightmare that is the US empire ends, the better off the whole world will be.
