Alright GA community, I've heard it said in regards to Covid, jab mandates and general government overreach world wide, that things will get worse before they get better. To me, this comes across as a vague platitude that offers very little in the way of real help. It's already looking pretty grim in many parts of the world. Australia and New Zealand look to be experiencing the hardest treatment from their governments, but in other places many people are being forced by their jobs to get the jab or lose their job.
All that said, I want to challenge this community and ask: How specifically will things get worse? Who do you think will be most affected by things? How would one prepare? Do you have an opinion of what will be the turning point for things to get better? Open discussion, please share your thoughts and opinions. I don't want this to be a doomer thread. Just share what you think people could realistically expect to experience over the next few months or years. I'm genuinely interested to hear what you have to say. How bad will things get before they start getting better?
EDIT: Let's keep this based on Q posts as much as possible. I'm actually fairly new to Q and have watched a lot of the videos provided by the GA mods, but still researching a lot and learning from you all. I've been with the MAGA movement since 2016 back when The_Donald was on Reddit. I started coming over here to GA back in January after the 'Inauguration'. You all provided a lot of hope when it all seemed lost.
Yes, have some goods set back for bartering, things like liquor, extra non-perishables, firewood, propane, and cash. They will be tying your digital $ to your vaxport. Credit cards, bank accts, may become inaccessible or may suffer collapse due to bank runs. Cash will be essential and will retain some value, at least for a while. Keep your property taxes paid, don't give them a reason. Get to know your neighbors, be on at least some level of cordial acquaintance. Gather your family close, become your own clan. The more eyes, ears, and hands, the better. And do good works when you can. You will bring good favor upon yourself in the community and in God's eyes. Pray.
