There's far too much lip-smacking eagerness around here, over the prospect of a second Great Depression. It isn't a football game, that can be enjoyed from the sidelines, it's going to affect ALL of us. And I'm not talking about small inconveniences. A real Depression is going to kill your savings account, your job, your car loan (and car), your income, your mortgage, your rent, your utilities and your food budget. Only the lucky ones will still have enough to eat, and don't count on being among the lucky ones.
A 1929-style stock market crash won't affect just the rich. We won't be cheering on the destruction of the Deep State, we'll be wondering where our next meal is coming from.
Prepare now for an economic crash, and you might make it through to the Trump Administration. And while you're waiting, a couple of good history books that tell you what the last Depression was like would be a great idea.
Land, well, food garden with chickens , no mortgage, solar generator, starlink. Participating in the broken system is officially optional.
From now to March 25, 2025 is 7 months and 3 weeks.
Trump might not be president on January 20, which would mean he’s not in office when we expect.
I would fully expect he’s there within a few months, and the old inauguration date would be about that far after.
If there’s a double crash incoming, first a bad crash, then a terrible crash in October, we would need to make it 3-5 months on supplies.
7 months would be really difficult.
3-4 months should be very doable by anyone who’s done a reasonable amount of prepwork. 5 would be getting into harder territory.
We WILL need to have enough to help several neighbors through this if we are called on to be the “frame and support”.
Q has already addressed that. There will be no months long shutdowns.
Q drop 2615 Q - Should we be prepping for some kind of shutdown?
https://qagg.news/?q=%23%232615&q2=
For power? Yes.
For food and consumer goods, or “money”? Not that I recall.
It doesn’t hurt to plan for power anyway, with all the tornados, hurricanes, freezes, and other nonsense going on, but I look at that one on a scale of days or weeks, not potential months.
I did not think Q was playing games with words. The question asked was should we be prepping for some kind of shutdown. I think it is always good to prepare but I honestly don't believe anything will last more than two weeks. At that point the black hats win.
A lot of people here had talked about a food/goods being an issue for a few months some time back.
I tend to align with that one because it seems to me to make the best story for a “near death experience” and getting everyone to have a personal stake in the game and feeling of triumph.
You’ve surely seen by now how a lot of people will not pay attention to warnings until it impacts them directly. We also need some way to generate unity, and Americans being able to come together with Americans to keep Americans afloat would be a good way to restore it.
That said, maybe you’re right. Who knows? I do agree that major concern about the power grid is unwarranted.
...be wary of wishes...
...for sometimes they are granted...
Markets bounced today, so might have gone the early crow.
Dead Cat Bounce
Yep. Dead Cat Bounce

Yeah well they usually have a few good days in a big downturn.
Agreed. The bounce is mostly due to the "buy the dip"-shits throwing more good money after bad... but the circumstances that led to the crash (Japanese Yen, carry trades, stagnant Japanese economy, etc.) have not been addressed, and most of them cannot be fixed. Japan is just the fuse that leads to the rest of the world's markets.
I think the DS/cabal is doing everything they can to prop up the US market with fake job numbers, fake economic data, and puppet government interventions. Eventually, however, the dead cat that bounced starts to smell really bad and the truth can no longer be hidden or ignored.
This crash was just the appetizer...
Red October may be referring to a blood bath in the market after this dead cat bounce!
I think October will be a excellent time to buy
...dead cat...
The non meowing cat I think.
Maybe poke it with something?
C'mon do something.
The current administration is not going to crash the econmy 100+ days out of an election. If it does crash the whites hats are running the show.
...distinct possibility...
Watching Shin Godzilla right before reading this article really puts some good visuals to what’s about to go down.
