Thing with walls is that they also keep people in.
If anyone was ever worried about FEMA camps, this is no different.
If it's not a complete SHTF scenario, but the dollar loses reserve currency status, then having gold and silver will be immensely good.
The US would become like a combination of post-USSR Russia and Brazil, if it ever lost dollar reserve status.
That's why the cabal have been backing the petro-dollar with lead the past several decades
Why not both? In post-Soviet Russia or Brazil, it's not like people were/are staving to death. With not knowing what the governement will do with the value of your currency, having a little universal currency, like gold/silver, isn't a stupid idea.
You watched too many episodes of jericho. Not that it can't happen, unless it's a worldwide SHTF that lasts years, no one is gonna be trading bullets for food. Lol.
It could… but I don't plan my life around surviving that.
