Listening to Ron Paul talk about the eventual collapse of the US dollar has scared the shit out of me. I am considering buying a huge swath of land and farming, hoarding gold, and buying a gun. Not even joking. Is no one else scared???

Can someone speak on this matter? Are we fucked? Should I bug out of society with the decent amount of money I have and live off the land?
>>
>>73096634
it will collapse as soon as the gold backed yuan comes out.
>>
>>73096634
It needs to collapse, the dollar has been overvalued for years

OK but what do we do?!
>>
>>73096634
Why be scared of the death of the welfare state? The collapse is our only savior.
>>
>>73096883
But how do I protect my money?! I don't want to loose eveything made to hyper-inflation.
>>
buy some filters
>>
>>73096969
hyper-inflation wont happen for a long time, america still produces tons of things that everyone wants which will keep the dollar strong.

when things get bad you invest in physical goods later on though.
>>
No one?! Are we really that fucked? Is it even possible for a Gold backed Yuan to exist? Is there even enough gold to back up all their currency? Can't the US vote in the IMF when deciding the Yuan legitimacy and block it?
>>

easily.

>Can't the US vote in the IMF when deciding the Yuan legitimacy and block it?
kikes have no control, china will use it themselves and people will naturally buy into it.
>>
>>73097497
So will US be forced to strong arm China like we have done with Iraq, lybia, etc when it comes to currency control/debt/oil etc? I dont know what I'm talking about honestly. What do you think will happen in the next 10 years.... hell even 5 years.
>>
>>73096634
Ask away. I like these convos.

Well. Answer some questions...

wont happen, china is too strong now.

the chinks played their hand very well financially.

the only down side is china collapsing environmentally.
>>
>>73096969
Protect your money? Thats something that only the wealthy will be able to do. Wealth will buy its way out of the crises and take its power where the economy goes (China)

Focus on sustainable systems and collection of knowledge. It'll be priceless.

He's been saying the same BS since literally the 1970's. He has been proven wrong so many times. Every recession he screams muh inflation when all indicators indicate literally deflation. You are a useless autist if you are alarmed
>>
>>73098299
Also, have you seen China's military recently? Kind of terrifying.
>>
>>73098364
Yeah I want to buy land, and build solar power systems on it, water filtration, farming with animals and crops. Me my two brothers and anyone else in my family who want to contribute. How are you prepping, not "prepping, but yeah I guess kinda prepping.
>>
>>73098516
this desu senpai
>>
My idea has been the same for a long time. Buy land, cultivate a section into plots for controlled logging. Make a lumber mill and produce enough lumber once a year, sustainable, to pay the taxes on the land.

From there you can even grow your own food and provide power if you wanted. Even if it doesn't come in my lifetime, my kids will have it.
Its basically the idea the rich had a long time ago: preparation, hence the estates and the trust funds and their kids not having to work for generations.
>>
>>73098299
Capitalist Yanks send all their jobs to China and now they're strong as shit. Nice
>>
>>73096634
Is there a way to invest my money into this new chink change?

Didnthis have anything to do with china fucking up the market last year?
>>
>>73099000
That's what I'm thinking. Some version of this. I want to get out of the city and work some land. Miss the fresh air desu senpai. Even just on the weekends. Keep a city apartment.
>>
>>73098633
>>73099000
Btw, Solar power isnt your best option. Solar panels produce more emissions in the moment of their creation than they save over their lifetime and can be hard to replace.

Look in to solar thermal. Guy named Shuman invented it back before the first world war and used it to irrigate a patch of desert
>>
>>73096634
Dude, this "dollar is about to collapse" shit is literally decades old (see "Willard Cantelon" for an example that's only 43 years old, for example). People have been, are, and will continue to be fearful, paranoid dipshits. DOn/t become one of them.

2 and a half acres of land is enough to feed a family of four comfortably with sustainable methods.

You can dig a water well and use a greenhouse to pull in multiple harvests a year of goods you need less of over a long time or for specialty items year-round. Bulk crops like wheat for flour or rice can be cultivated traditionally.
>>
>>73099603
Good to know. Also is gold a good investment? Or is it just a mem?

>>73099550
Please explain. Honestly curious.
>>
>>73099479
No problem. My plan actually goes further than that. I was in physics at an early age and joined the military after school and got to travel and see a lot.

I have an idea that may change everything and pertains to everything we have talked about.

Put it this way: one day I may be able to give that same stability and quality of life to anyone the world over. (:

well.. grab some snacks and put off your tinfoil hats. you're gonna get this shit explained by link below:

The US military exists to destroy any opposition to the dollar.

I wonder how they plan on destroying China.
>>
>>73099864
Idealistic, but admirable. Just too may fucking people on this rock now. I know people say that our planet is no where near capacity, and we can feed at least another 3-4 billion more people, but jesus christ that's bullshit especially with the wealth distribution.

>Inb4 socialist
>Inb4 muh 1%

Just not possible to have 1.3 billion Chinese with cars and TV's and middle class living. Not to mention all of India.
>>
>>73099767
Gold has a lot of uses but honestly I wouldn't. It's going to be more about arable land, resources, etc.

The wealthy people in the world have made their fortunes and then spent them. They know what's really important. They have us all chasing currency because they equate it to other things. Problem is that they own everything so they set thet price and control the market. They use banking and debt to gain ownership of everything from land to water to minerals all over the world.

They know money is the illusion and that by the time the masses realize it, they will own our world

>>73100377
Yeah owning land and water seems to be key. No more of its getting made unless youre China making islands out of nothing.
>>
hm
>>
>>73100842
That's going to be the spark. If we don't say or do something about it then it opens the door for anyone and its a new race in the first world to claim the earth on a wider basis with manmade constructs. Japan should be great at this, right? They have been doing it in anime and other similar mega things forever
>>
>>73099550
That's a big gun. No bane posting pun intended, just a really big gun. I wish I had a big gun like that.

I have been buying gold and silver for decades.
>>
>>73096634

Do you need gun buying advice?
>>
>>73101411
Kinda but not really. Been lurking /K/ for a few years and my brother is a PJ in the airforce. I know a few things, been hunting, but don't own any guns because I live in Jew York.
>>
>>73098364

Yes you're talking about prepping. Get over the stigma. Prepping is wise to consider. Everybody on /pol/ should have at least a month of emergency supplies and a firearm
>>
>>73101193
I was thinking about this and China seems to be taking it very seriously. And Australia is paranoid as fuck now. They bought 12 new subs.
>>
>>73097497
Lol, the west would go into a trade war and win easily. No one likes china and all is neighbors are suspicious as fuck. The west would use protectionism to its full advantage since we actually produce the nice shit, not carboard/plastic shit.
>>
>>73096831
Buy gold
>>
>>73101758
Yeah prepping has a nasty stigma, don't know why. Guess it's the crazy people who have 3 yeas worth of supplies. But is that really crazy?! Rather safe than sorry, especially in a scenario that requires that much prep.
>>
>>73100652

yeah make sure you listen at it. i guarantee you your balls will drop by the first 5 minutes.
