Did anyone here predict this time last year that the US would be in its current state? Because I sure didn't. Everything seems to be going downhill really fast. The decay seems exponential rather than linear. So with that being said, do you think the collapse could come soon? 2 years? next year? Maybe even before the end of this year? It would honestly be shocking if the US went from business as usual to civil war in the space of a few years.
It's also easier for a modern economy and infrastructure to collapse compared to, say, the economy and infrastructure of the Roman Empire. Maintaining our current living standards is harder, and a far greater percentage of our population would be able to feed themselves if the supermarket closes.
