I'd imagine if you had 60-120 grand cash- none of this would be a worry to begin with..
Just me though..

How wouldn't it? Pot is cheaper and there's no negative effects.. those industries know it- that's why they spend tons of money to make sure pot doesn't become legal..

i dont know, i dont think the drunks will stop drinking because weed comes out and i dont know any cigarette smokers that will stop smoking because of weed
i mean, weed is as readily available now, compared to if it was available at the 7/11 instead of that dude down the street, its just not government regulated
and people will continue to start smoking cigs and start drinking because those are fun things to do as well
they might loose a lil bit of money but it wont ruin there industries

I think the cigarette smokers won't quit. That is a different habit entirely.
I do think alcohol sales will be effected to some extent. I know plenty of people who drink because they have to deal with random piss tests at work. If randoms stopped a good portion of drinkers would end up drinking less in favor of pot.

Unfortunately they can't let the system collapse, but that doesn't mean they can't screw around with the system to fuck a lot of people over.
I wonder how many billions AIGs stock holders lost (ironically AIG is a solid company that fucked up by investing in mortgages (London Financial Office specifically)).
One small division that screwed them over big time.
As far as cash being an answer if shit really does head south.... if shit really does head south it wont be the Great Depression, it'll make Pre-Nazi Germany look like a walk in the park. Hyper inflation from Hell.
So much for your cash reserves....
At that point the only real currency that would retain its value would be gold, silver or copper, but those can be confiscated, so....
Of course if this really was all part of a conspiracy theory to screw over the world and get a lot of people to be killed off the government wouldn't be lifting a finger, or lurching from one crisis to another.
All the government would have to do is announce that it is defaulting on all its loans, which would mean the dollar would drop like a rock (a very very very big rock)
Also interesting to note that the Fed is neither Federal, nor much of a Reserve, but they couldn't name it a Central Bank, Americans would have tore the idea down, and killed any politician that had voted for it, so they had to call it something... "creative".

Though... I really don't see a systemic collapse.
At least not if everyone keeps their heads on straight and don't freak out.

Hopefully the Dow isn't an indicator of that panic, yes?

maybe their systematically preparing the huge crash and bail outs, knowing that our banking system will collapse in on itself and the dollar will drop way way down and well be forced to switch to the "amero"

Not every 'conspiracy theory' is about killing everyone or 'screwing everyone over'.. no.. they want complete socialism, communism. complete control. And they're getting it..
"Though... I really don't see a systemic collapse.

You mean, as long as no one figures out the scam and realizes there's no actual wealth in this country and the FRN's are worthless?
I agree, we're gonna see hyper inflation from hell.. that's what's going to be the collapse..

you don't even want to know what the conspiracy theorists say will come to pass within a few months. terrifies me to say the least, but i will stand strong and fight these demons to the death!
all i can say is store food, invest in precious medals, invest in weapons and ammo, find a secluded location in the forests if you do not want to fight against these demons. DO THIS NOW. you will not survive if you are not prepared. we must be brave and intelligent! this depression will be used to form a new global currency. a new world order.
and please, for the love of God and your life... DO NOT go where the Feds want to take you, if they claim your home and other possessions. Flee from urban areas if you are in debt, they will come and take what you owe when all these banks fail completely.

Gawd I hate insurance companies. Maybe when the libs get into office and force all Americans to buy their health insurance they will become solvent again.
The only way I would consider bailing out these corporations would be if all executive bonus' paid for the last ten years were refunded to help the bail out, and no bonus money for exec's for the next ten years were implemented. Then maybe.

If they can't do it with what they have now, what makes you think they'll ever be able to do it.
And AIG is hardly a health insurance company, AIG is a conglomerate that got shafted by one division being retarded.

Hopefully, but you know, bankers are the first people to steal your shirt and hide in a closet when the shit starts hitting the fan.
Though, I really need to look at getting some silver, and then finding a good place to hide it if the government announces any crap like confiscation of gold and silver assets.

LOL.. your a little late on the hunt for silver- it's been nearly impossible to get for a few weeks now, and it just keeps getting worse... everything is crazy above spot- waiting periods till January and such.. good luck in your search though, anything you find be sure to pick up...
