I'll tell you what worries me: Financial freeze-up leading to economic and social collapse. (And eventually political collapse). The root cause of the Great Recession (too much debt) was never solved, it was just rolled over into more debt. This isn't JUST Trump's fault, Obama oversaw eight years of reduced interest rates, quantitative easing and the buildup of even MORE debt. Much of that "free money" from the banks went to fund the "everything bubble" - stock bubble, bond bubble, real estate bubble. A crap-ton of "financial products" and derivatives based on specious loans. When the merry-go-round stops it'll be like 2008 all over again... stocks, bonds, and real estate will collapse, banks will go bust, businesses will fail, pension funds, and insurances will go broke, people will be unemployed - again. Only this time China will break off of the American economy and the USD will suffer a fatal blow.

They say that every city is only three days away from riots; that's how much food is stored. We don't have enough of a society to pull ourselves together to get thru this. If there's enough disorder, we will WELCOME martial law. Just saying.

a) Rusia doesn't have the interest OR the capacity to save the USA from itself. I can't imagine how YOU imagine that might work. What do you think they would do? Send their military to occupy our cities? Ship us a few thousand tons of gold to stabilize our currency? Air drop food into our cities?

b) Saudi Arabia might want to save the USA from itself because of their dependence on the petrodollar, but they don't have the capacity to do that, either. They can't even turn their own economy around, and militarily they can't even beat the Houthi rebels in Yemen, the poorest rebels in the poorest country in the world.

c) You're still thinking in terms of Democrat and Republican?

****

Here are a few ideas of what might happen:

Chaos and rioting. Armed inner-city gangs roaming the suburbs for food and whatever they can steal.

Martial law. We all know what that is- soldiers on the street corners, keeping order.

Federalization of the banks. No more money-printing by private institutions. Or bail-ins *the bank's preferred solution, where they get to take your deposits in exchange for bank stocks of unknown value

Conversion to a new currency?

Government control of the media and the internet

These are pretty dire scenarios, it's the kind of ultimate SHTF fear, but that's wat I'm afraid of. But it's also the result of DECADES of oligarchs and "allies" bleeding the USA dry ... deindustrialzing, kicking the props out from under our currency, kicking the props out from under our ECONOMY, giving the banks and the Fed free hand to create currency willy-nilly, encouraging a financial system based on (unsustianable) debt at ALL levels, and allowing rampant division of wealth. And the only way to fix this is to reverse it, but since that crosses the interests of the banks and monopolies it will NEVER come under consideration.

This has nothing to do with Russia and everything to do with banks. Not just "our" banks, but international banks as well, because they're all tied togather.
