This is really scary! Besides turning into a "Survivalist" what are the answers to protecting oneself? Buy physical gold and silver? What about the purchase of everyday essentials? Food & water. Fuels like Nat. gas, electricity, gasoline. If money is worthless, why exchange our gold and silver for it? We will revert back to the "Dark Ages" if this does come about, which I feel is at least a 50-50 chance right now. Stocks like Silverado will have to get to profitibility for its shareholders before this comes about or else we risk the chances that the "baby gets thrown out with the bath water" when the market takes its dive to the bottom. Every stock will be worthless, as the money we recieve for it will be just that. Worthless! IMHO, everyone better get their financial house in order, and be debt free. Nobody can take away what is paid for! (AT LEAST, NOT WITHOUT A FIGHT) I would really like to see some ideas/input on this article. Please, after reading this article you must have SOME opinion !
