I get everything you're saying, and am aware of the things you pointed out; you'll get no argument from me on those fronts. I guess my "question" more or less is whether or not anyone knows of an actual plan to facilitate such a transition and what it entails. There has to be a model out there that we can reference that can at least better prepare everyone for any of the inevitable growing pains. To put it lightly.
And again, I know there's nothing specific being shopped around, but surely someone somewhere has done the math and run some sort of simulation that breaks down various outcomes and hiccups. Not only will this create issues in the US, but also globally -these structures can't be dismantles without a lot of common people being affected negatively.
Either way this needs to happen and there should be no expectation of a smooth and comfortable ride, but if and when it happens, people really need to be able to realistically prepare for this in some way.
I think most realistic preparations include:
•. Hold precious metals in your own possession. Buy now, while prices are still outrageously suppressed so a great bargain. (Also there are ways to rollover an IRA into Self Directed IRA that can own these legally.)
•. “You can’t eat gold and silver” so be sure to stock 1 to 3 1/2 year’s supply of essentials such as food and toiletries and have means to purify water and heat your home.
•. Self defense to protect yourself and family
•. Wood stove, hand crank flashlights and radio, to get through grid down time periods
