...90% of the Dollar's purchasing power gone in 14 months?

Sounds like this guy is having a fantasy. It's not impossible, but it'd take something on the order of a civil war to cause that.

I mean the unofficial stats when you stop insane things like owner equivalent rent was 15% for last year alone and that was without the issue of a massive shortage of food and fuel.

Maybe, but don’t things tend to go Horribly Wrong very slowly then all at once?

What I’m saying is that I doubt that part myself but I don’t rule it out. At least not as much as I once would have.

Although I will share this, we aren’t quite so bad off... not least of which because we could drain the lifeblood of europe as it falls.

Well, without nitrogen and ammonium fertilizers, don't expect your food to be bountiful or cheap unless it comes from the sea. Some of you with the wherewithal may want to get a chest freezer and stock up.

Technically the us is an net exporter of fertilizer but I fully expect our government to fuck it up.

I’m guessing that the fisheries would see a massive boom in the demand for sea food. This might also mean a possible increase in popularity for shark and whale meat.

Arson attack in Germany on a German-Russian School today.

Berlin: Feuer an deutsch-russischer Schule gelegt – politisches Motiv? - WELT

In Deutschland leben tausende Menschen russischer Herkunft. Manche stehen zu Putin, andere lehnen den Krieg ab. An einer Schule der russischen Community brannte es nun. Steckt ein politisches Motiv dahinter?

They're going for freedom fries in the max like this example.

Guess we are kinda back 100 years in history, when politically active worker organizations refused to serve trade/supply operations with countries they didn't like.

LOL, its been even more recent than that.

I remember my brother being warned about where to park his Volkswagen back in the late 90s/early 2000s NJ. You did NOT park a Volkswagen (or any foreign vehicle) in a Union neighborhood - any non-American car would get f'd up by Union workers.

When considering situations like this, I always ask Edgar.

At least they didn't burn it down, which has happened a lot in Canada lately.

Indeed.If Canada let catholic churches burn,why should they care about orthodox ones?
Only saint places now are synagogues and mosgues.

Not a good example, IMO. Argentina may not be as fucked up as Venezuela, but it's circling the drain.

Except very few of those countries have the regional divides we do, if things are that bad, why would the states who don’t like the way the union is going remain part of it. After all that level of economic collapse would also cripple the military. So the usual answer of they will shoot you if you try to leave won’t apply.
