and when the money is gone, and the bread and circus have run out, it will be most unfortunate that our economic divisions so closely mimic our racial ones, because this country will descend into a race war... our Final Civil War...
Well, if things are getting that bad we will see it comming. I agree with your assessment that LA will be the first to go and other towns will follow suit. I have land and assets that are not American so if things get that bad, I will take care of mine and dissapear.

I can see it happening if it gets as bad as your saying about a total disruption of paychecks and stuff but I do not see these sheep taking action for anything less than that kind of total breakdown of society and government.

And yes, Canada needs America strong to continue, we buy almost all of their exported oil for example and we even buy electricity for most of the north east corner of America from Canada. If we go, they go.

You cannot have an uprising without a common belief structure. If people cannot agree with what is wrong, then they cannot gather together to fight that wrong.
That's why we have Democrats & Republicans.

It's easier to get 2 sides to fight over something they disagree on then to get them to fight something they can agree on.

Last time there was any unification was after the 9/11 attacks. Once people figured out the US used the attacks as a stepping stone to "LIBERATE", not fight terrorism, the division started all over again, and the sheeple comply.

UPDATE: 9/15/08 @ 1700hrs

+++++++++++++++++++++

Down Jones closes down 504 points after market selloff triggered by Lehman Bros chapter 11 suit, and Merryl Lynch selling itself to Bank of America!

Basically, The 3rd and 4th largest US investment firms collapsed...

I can only hope that a 1987 style collapse is next as frightened investors run for the Euro...

then after that, hopefully a complete collapse, and the death of the FED!

Money is dwindeling... Energy is getting scarce, and yes we have actually had food shortages!

things are looking good! or bad... depends on how you look at it...

I like Canada...you bunch of.......Canada haters. Why do y'all dislike us so much? Sheesh! :(

I love Canadians, we have lots of them here in Florida escaping with what is left of their savings to avoid the taxes there. Canadians are like our family, I may not like everything they do but I would defend them like I would defend America.

I love Canada! I just hink that they like believing that they are not linked to the US... Canada is US and US is Canada... We should really just learn to accept that...

Canada is like a US Superstate... ;)

Am I REALLY the only person on this forum that thinks the US is doomed to fight another civil war?

Maybe. I could see a catastrophic event causing a Mad Max type situation before an actual civil war happening.

If it came down to a civil war I would think other countries would take advantage of the situation and attack us.

I'm sure the UN would do little... but Nato might actually have a bunch to say about it..

Like it or not, we are in a world economy and any large Country going down will throw everyone into a mess from one degree to another. Our stock market dropping had severe effects all over the world.

We are importing massive amounts of goods that we no longer produce. That depresses our economy but it props up other economies. Once that flow is suddenly stopped, well it will not be pretty.

Maybe that is the end of the world predicted in the Bible. Maybe we will all collapse and the last world war will be set off and all the nukes will finally be unleashed causing the destruction of man.

Funny.. saw what bender said in the shout box about privatizing SS with people's money to these crook buddies of crook politicians..

That's what a pyramid/ponzii scheme needs to survive.. a constant infusion of new capital.. eventually the cookie crumbles no matter what.. There may be a bigger sucker born every minute, but eventually the biggest sucker is left holding the bag..
