Stinky Wizzleteats posted:ughhhhh ive been living in a tent for practice and working on my bowhunting/varmint shooting please crash hard as gently caress economy we'll be square if you do swur to god When Marvin Liao, a former Yahoo executive who is now a partner at 500 Startups, a venture-capital firm, considered his preparations, he decided that his caches of water and food were not enough. “What if someone comes and takes this?” he asked me. To protect his wife and daughter, he said, “I don’t have guns, but I have a lot of other weaponry. I took classes in archery.” [reddit ceo] Huffman has been a frequent attendee at Burning Man, the annual, clothing-optional festival in the Nevada desert, where artists mingle with moguls. He fell in love with one of its core principles, “radical self-reliance,” which he takes to mean “happy to help others, but not wanting to require others.” (Among survivalists, or “preppers,” as some call themselves, FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, stands for “Foolishly Expecting Meaningful Aid.”) Huffman has calculated that, in the event of a disaster, he would seek out some form of community: “Being around other people is a good thing. I also have this somewhat egotistical view that I’m a pretty good leader. I will probably be in charge, or at least not a slave, when push comes to shove.” from here

For a decent intro look up the Wikipedia article on the 1998 Argentine great depression. note the part about worker cooperatives in particular. I'm having trouble finding anything that talks about rural conditions so I'll need to get to my home computer for things that arnt just about economics

He also wrote a book on it. This is the only source i can find with a bit of googling as all others either refer to him or are focused on currency values over people loving starving.

curufinor posted:Doesn't that guy make his money off of survivalist kooks probably, but he's also a survivalist kook so  In all seriousness though the only part im taking seriously is the parts where hermits bunker up then get killed because gently caress those guys. As he's the only source i can find i'd treat everything else with a hefty bit of salt, especially since i've already found stuff that contridicts his gold bug tendencies. But alas, the conditions people live in are unimportant compared to imf impact diagrams or whatever.

Agean90 posted:probably, but he's also a survivalist kook so your initial point was, people need to cooperate to survive, and imho, just lol at anyone who thinks they can get by without that when, and if the apocalypse comes you can hole up with your canned, and dehydrated food, and your gallons of water with walls lined with guns, but if a smart enough, and large enough roving band of humans comes by, you are a corpse with stuff, or if you are smart, a member of a brand new community who is intent on forcibly sharing your resources either way, being one man in a forest with things makes you a patsy in the natural world, and we haven't been living in that for some time

i've been involved in "survival" type stuff for a while. part of what we do to train involves being self-sufficient in the woods for any amount of time. i've seen people doing very well food and shelter-wise who tapped out because they couldnt bear being alone. people prefer being part of a starving group instead of being fed and alone. if some poo poo hits the theoretical fan i'm staying in a city.

I bought a house in CO like two years ago and it has gone up in value 49.6% if Redfin is to be believed (Zillow has a much higher estimate that I don't think is accurate). I'd totally cash out and just use the gains to buy a McMansion in Ohio if I didn't like my place so much  If we see a housing market crash again, it's not going to look like the last one since it won't be driven (as much) by cheap, completely unaccountable mortgage money being pushed by predatory lenders. With my idiotic brain, I'd imagine the worst markets like SF and Seattle will take a big hit, while just-shouldn't-be cities like Miami and Las Vegas get hit as well, with Austin/Denver/St. Louis coming out, relatively, on top. call to action fucked around with this message at 17:32 on Jul 24, 2017 |

I'd totally cash out and just use the gains to buy a McMansion in Ohio if I didn't like my place so much the places with the most newer homes will get hosed (loan amount vastly higher the actual home's price + ppl lose their jobs) that means the places where people are migrating or being built out will be hit the worst. that means the places with rapidly inflating prices will be hurt most. seattle and austin will be crippled. also any foreign investments will lose a lot of value but those places might be held onto since they're considered investments and not places ppl live for and pay with loans. i actually think "new" cities will be hit the worst such as austin and portland. seattle is kind of a mix. the last recession killed the west for a reason: most people were building out these brand new cities on the cheap and people who took out loans in whogivesafucksville california now had a shack in the desert.
