their base isn't economically profitable enough to support it and its only a matter of time before rethugs think a land war in asia is a good thing
So what's the timeframe on America going into collapse?
- Thread starter Formerly Black Trash
- Start date
You want America to collapse so people can "wake up" but you're "woke" pre-collapse. I don't think you give people enough credit, many of us understand that this shyt is rigged but we still have families to support and can't afford to drop out of reality until shyt descends into madness.
You don't want the reality that you're asking for. When people are rioting in the streets, it won't nice and neat where people stop rioting at 10pm leaving time for you to get home, shower, fap and sleep. In a collapsed state, there aren't any rules and no one to save you. You're looking forward to a reality you haven't really spent much time thinking about.

idk man, they actually manufacture stuff whole our while economy is based on debt which is a house of cards. and going to war with china isnt iraq or afganistan, which we didnt even really win in either of those places unless you count jacking their resources as winning. They prob gonna get caught up in a war with iran first and thats really gonna deplete the military, unless they want to start launching nukes and basically off the whole planet

I just think it takes a long time for something like that to really take effect.

Low end 30 years...high end 60 years.
Revolutions are usually started by the middle class, not the poor. The fly over country middle class (both blue collar and white collar) still has a pretty decent standard of living outside the coasts. Their beef is their relative social standing has suffered, but their quality of life in general has not. Once the quality of life suffers along with relative social standing that is when shyt hits the fan. That probably occurs when both private and public pensions are substantially undermined, the flaws of the 401(k) system become clear, and the government is incapable or indifferent to fixing the issue.
We will see some MMT experiment before it's all said and done, and if/when (probably when imo) that fails then widespread nihilism will occur.

What is collapse? Us as a world power? The US as a 50 state nation? Our economy? Total anarchy, protests, and riots?

You would have to define what collapse would mean....
If you are talking about the quality of life for the average american citizen...the collapse has already happened...if you don't work in certain industries the chances of you getting ahead...well don't exist
If you are talking about the american economy...some sectors like tech and medicine are going to and have been taking off...
Did you say when are people going to wake up? Never...
It's called the american dream because you have to be asleep to believe it

Why would the US collapse?
It's a global economy. US collapsing would fukk every other country up. It's in their interest to keep America's consumers consuming their products and services.
And just because you read people on social media about how miserable they are doesn't mean majority feels the same.
If the Dems win the presidency, it will be the conservatives crying it's gonna be the end of the world and Dems trolling them. Same shyt as always.

thread is hilarious...
...some of yall are just as delusional as the extreme right wing types.
Economy is great...money is damn near free...
...so many way to come up.
America is still the most dominant country....if we fall, everyone else does too.
Stay off these damn news sites/forums and go out there and get.
So many people are sleeping (like the folks talking about a collapse happening in a few years).
