no economy in the history of the world
00:08
has ever sustained a constant rate of
00:09
growth
00:10
recessions depressions and complete
00:12
economic collapse is inevitable in even
00:14
the most advanced
00:15
societies insider trading greed and
00:18
crony capitalism can all lead to an
00:20
inevitable collapse of the economic
00:22
infrastructure
00:23
pandemics armed conflicts and natural
00:25
disasters can fuel
00:27
a rapid deconstruction of economies and
00:29
societal norms
00:30
preparing for the economic collapse of
00:32
any society starts with understanding
00:33
how society breaks down
00:35
and history can inform us of how that
00:37
happens when a nation collapses
00:39
is it possible to be prepared can you
00:42
know what to expect
00:44
[Music]
00:47
in this video we’ll look at the 10 most
00:49
common things that happen after society
00:51
collapses
00:52
not all of these things occur at once
00:54
and your surrounding community may not
00:56
suffer from all 10 of them
00:57
but they will occur nonetheless you may
01:00
even have noticed a few of the warning
01:01
signs of the things i will cover in this
01:03
video
01:04
be aware of how they will interrelate
01:05
and prepare for their eventuality
01:07
all economies do collapse and no economy
01:10
is immune to the cyclical nature of
01:12
growth and decay
01:13
here are the 10 things to expect
01:16
number one food shortages food shortages
01:19
are one of the first things to appear
01:20
after society collapses
01:22
farms may still be producing crops at
01:24
the same rate and ranchers may be
01:26
raising animals at the same production
01:27
levels
01:28
however the ability to harvest crops
01:31
process meat and manufacture foods and
01:33
transport food from farm to ranch or
01:35
ranch your store
01:36
or table may fall apart at any step in
01:38
the process whether farmers can’t find
01:41
laborers to harvest crops and they rot
01:43
in the fields
01:43
or ranchers can’t get their meat
01:45
processed because plants are closed
01:47
just one failure in the food supply
01:49
chain can have a ripple effect across
01:50
industries
01:52
in this recent pandemic we have begun to
01:53
see cases where meat packaging plants
01:56
shut down
01:57
farmers were unable to harvest their
01:59
crops dairy farmers were
02:01
forced to dump their product because
02:02
distribution chains no longer allowed
02:04
them the opportunity to bring their
02:05
product to market though this initial
02:08
chaos quickly passed and store shelves
02:10
were restocked in short order
02:11
it should have been enough for you to
02:12
realize the need to prepare for
02:14
potential food shortages
02:15
runs on stores and empty shelves cause
02:17
panic buying and hoarding which further
02:19
complicates the shortages and supply
02:21
chains
02:22
hyperinflation and hyper demand for
02:23
products causes dramatic price increases
02:26
which leads to even greater panic and
02:28
further compounding shortages
02:29
having ample supply of stable products
02:32
knowing ways to cook to stretch your
02:33
supplies
02:34
bartering for food and growing your own
02:36
food are all methods to insulate
02:37
yourself
02:38
from shortages caused by an economic
02:40
collapse
02:42
number two paper currency becomes
02:44
worthless
02:45
when an economy collapses paper currency
02:47
becomes worthless
02:48
high demand products products and shorts
02:51
apply and products with supply
02:52
disruptions skyrocket and price
02:55
products may become so expensive that
02:56
the relative value of currency becomes
02:58
much lower
02:59
it takes more and more dollars to
03:01
purchase previously inexpensive products
03:03
precious metals tangible goods skills
03:06
and services become the new currency
03:08
precious metals will retain some value
03:10
amidst an economy’s collapse because
03:11
they have global value and intrinsic
03:13
value
03:14
people know that precious metals like
03:15
minute coins hold value
03:17
so they will be more willing to barter
03:19
for precious metals over paper currency
03:21
precious metals will also retain value
03:23
in economies of neighboring countries
03:25
that are not experiencing a collapse
03:26
perhaps more invaluable than even gold
03:28
however is a value that you can bring to
03:31
bear based upon your skill and talents
03:33
skills are your number one commodity and
03:35
of greatest value possessing needed
03:37
skills like carpentry sowing medicine
03:39
home brewing fishing hunting welding and
03:41
the like will allow you to trade these
03:43
services for food and other services you
03:44
will need to survive
03:46
when paper currency is literally not
03:48
worth the paper is printed on
03:49
what you can do will determine what you
03:51
can obtain in goods and services
03:53
number three homelessness with the 2020
03:57
cares act
03:58
set to soon expire in the united states
04:00
the nation may be facing a homelessness
04:02
crisis even before the year is out
04:04
already politicians and economists are
04:05
warning that the added income on top of
04:07
unemployment benefits
04:09
may be the only thing keeping people in
04:10
their homes and apartments
04:12
pro-opening and pro-quarantine factions
04:14
continue to debate the merits of their
04:15
causes
04:16
but with unemployment at historic highs
04:18
and consumers spinning dramatically
04:20
slowed
04:20
the economy is not likely to add the
04:22
millions of jobs it is lost
04:24
with the benefit packages retirement
04:26
savings vacation hours
04:28
and personal savings running out in
04:29
congress arguing and debating over what
04:31
if anything should come next it’s not
04:34
unlikely that the evictions and
04:36
foreclosures will follow
04:38
as tenants cannot pay landlords will
04:40
evict by law or by force
04:42
government mortgage and rent relief
04:44
programs can only last so long
04:46
when these supplemental resources and
04:47
personal reserves run out
04:49
and people join the ranks of the truly
04:51
unemployed and are unable to pay their
04:53
rent or mortgage
04:54
evictions will be looming some people
04:56
will be able to gather family members
04:58
under the same roof
04:59
other less fortunate people will find
05:01
themselves searching for shelter
05:03
owning land is the best insulation from
05:05
homelessness but not everyone is in a
05:06
position to do that
05:08
this leads to the fourth thing that
05:09
occurs when a country’s economy
05:10
collapses
05:12
number four large-scale migrations
05:15
large-scale migrations are inevitable as
05:17
people seek out places rumored to have
05:18
jobs or food
05:20
just like during the great depression in
05:21
the dust bowl people find themselves
05:23
homeless
05:24
will seek locations where they can work
05:26
eat or find stable shelter
05:28
as people search for jobs and resources
05:30
they may move across the land and
05:31
through your community
05:33
they may move across or through your
05:35
area which can cause safety issues for
05:37
you and the security of your resources
05:39
they may try to homestead near you and
05:41
forage from the same areas thereby
05:43
reducing
05:44
your available resources after every
05:46
armed conflict
05:47
you see whole caravans of migrants
05:49
fleeing their once stable homes in
05:50
search of a better life
05:52
most are not received well by people in
05:54
the land that they are trying to cross
05:55
or settle
05:56
large-scale migrations are inevitable in
05:58
any nation’s economic collapse
06:00
and these large-scale migrations can put
06:03
your safety in jeopardy
06:04
if you’re trying to stay put or travel
06:07
yourself
06:07
to a safer location number five utility
06:11
interruptions
06:12
the fifth inevitable occurrence when a
06:14
nation’s economy collapses is the
06:16
interruption of utilities
06:17
as utility services are cut off for
06:19
non-payment pirating of utilities
06:21
becomes more commonplace
06:23
this can divert power from your location
06:25
and cause
06:26
large-scale regional outages as prices
06:29
rise or money becomes worthless
06:31
utilities will never be a free service
06:33
so they’re just shut down
06:34
the united states power grid is very old
06:36
and in constant need of maintenance and
06:37
repair
06:38
as utility companies are unable to meet
06:40
maintenance schedules
06:41
or are forced to cut back on their labor
06:43
force extended periods of utility and
06:46
eruptions are inevitable
06:48
water power even garbage services can
06:50
all temporarily be halted or interrupted
06:52
compound these economic interruptions
06:54
with any other natural disaster such as
06:56
a flood
06:57
tornado earthquake and light and you can
06:59
see a service interruption
07:00
which could last for weeks or months
07:03
poor maintenance and flooding can easily
07:05
lead to the poisoning of municipal water
07:06
sources
07:07
having a home storage barrel system or
07:09
natural water source may be critical to
07:11
your survival
07:12
alternative power methods and water
07:14
reserves provide some insulation from
07:15
the harmful consequences of an economic
07:17
collapse
07:18
having access to natural flows or
07:20
collection points of water can sustain
07:21
you through disruptions
07:22
and having at least some form of
07:24
alternate power generation like solar or
07:26
wind energy
07:27
will allow you to at the very least
07:29
sustain yourself
07:30
number six crime increases crime and
07:33
lawlessness increase
07:34
tremendously after a nation’s economy
07:36
fails kidnappings muggings robberies and
07:39
looting all become commonplace
07:41
if local law enforcement is unable to
07:43
keep pace or keep a police force in the
07:45
field
07:45
criminals and desperate people will prey
07:47
upon the weak and seize by force
07:49
whatever they feel they can safely get
07:50
away with in some cases
07:52
these crimes will be individuals taking
07:54
advantage of the circumstances
07:56
but as the nation continues to decline
07:58
roving gangs and armed groups can become
08:00
more commonplace
08:01
as others see the normal societal rules
08:03
and laws only applying to some
08:05
and in some areas a growing desperation
08:08
emerges
08:08
people begin to ignore laws to make sure
08:11
they have the resources
08:12
they need to survive keeping your
08:14
resources and prepared supplies
08:16
concealed and secret are essential to
08:18
your ongoing security
08:20
having some forms of personal protection
08:21
and security become essential
08:23
even the perception of strength can work
08:25
to your advantage if your shades are
08:27
drawn
08:27
criminals don’t know what they will
08:28
encounter if your resources are hidden
08:30
opportunistic people will pass over your
08:32
location for a softer and visibly richer
08:35
target
08:36
remember those looking to take advantage
08:38
of the situation will often look for
08:39
easy targets
08:40
this leads to the seventh thing that
08:42
occurs when the economy collapses
08:43
militaristic rule number seven
08:46
militaristic rule
08:48
when an economy collapse the threat of
08:49
militaristic rule rises from potential
08:51
to probable
08:52
when police are unable to control the
08:54
lawlessness local state and federal
08:56
governments will do whatever they can to
08:57
restore peace
08:59
maintain some semblance of stability and
09:00
retain power this can lead to
09:03
greater armed confrontations which can
09:05
then cause an even greater military
09:07
presence in some areas
09:08
martial law or something that looks like
09:10
martial law will be put in place
09:12
militias local police forces state
09:14
national guard units military
09:16
each may control pockets of population
09:18
that may end up fighting each other for
09:19
that control
09:20
you should be prepared to lay low or to
09:22
bug out to your location
09:23
if you have one having prepper stores
09:25
off-site secured
09:27
or even buried will allow you to get to
09:28
a safer location and survive once there
09:31
this isn’t always a possibility for many
09:33
city preppers
09:34
if you have to bug out be prepared for
09:36
the self-proclaimed authority forces you
09:38
may encounter
09:39
as well as potential marauding bans keep
09:41
some of your supplies hidden but more
09:43
visible than your main supplies
09:44
if you have a five pound bag of flour
09:47
hidden slightly in your bug out vehicle
09:49
but another 25 pounds hit more deeply
09:51
you’re likely only going to be out of 5
09:52
pounds should you get stopped and shaken
09:54
down
09:55
even in an economic collapse not
09:57
everyone is going to want to kill you if
09:58
they can take what you have at gunpoint
10:01
if you are bugging out be prepared for
10:03
self-proclaimed authorities to seize
10:04
your supplies in the name of their cause
10:06
the same practices apply have a deeper
10:09
more hidden supply to make it appear as
10:11
though the slightly hidden supplies
10:13
are all you have during the american
10:15
revolution
10:16
it was not uncommon for patriot forces
10:18
to seize people’s food
10:19
and cattle in the name of the rebellion
10:21
colonists were sometimes paid in mostly
10:23
worthless ious
10:25
a starving military under sporadic and
10:27
unclear leadership could seize your
10:29
visible supplies
10:30
partially or whole number eight no or
10:33
limited fire police health services the
10:36
eight thing that occurs during any
10:37
nation’s economic collapse is the
10:38
limiting or complete failure of fire
10:40
police and health services if there’s a
10:43
billing fire but the streets are blocked
10:45
no fire engines will be coming to put
10:46
out the fire if police are trying to
10:48
quell a riot
10:49
none will be available to stop the
10:51
robber at your back door if hospitals
10:53
are inundated with wounded sick or short
10:55
staff
10:56
will anyone come for you if you
10:57
accidentally cut yourself or suffer a
10:59
medical emergency
11:01
when local economies fell these workers
11:03
may be laid off or let go
11:05
they won’t work forever for free in the
11:08
days after hurricane katrina police
11:09
officers were not reporting to duty in
11:11
full numbers as they cared for and
11:13
protected their own families
11:15
as hospitals prepared for a wave of
11:16
coveted 19 patients in need of critical
11:18
care
11:19
other medical procedures were to later
11:21
cancel during any economic collapse
11:24
these services of fire police and health
11:26
will be
11:27
at best sporadic in some cases they may
11:30
not exist at all together
11:32
review your preparations in case of a
11:34
fire can you contain a small fire
11:36
can you evacuate safely if you must
11:38
review your personal security
11:40
preparations
11:41
is your bug in location safe and locked
11:43
down can you protect yourself
11:45
if you need a bug out review your
11:47
medical needs i have several videos on
11:49
all of these subjects on my channel if
11:50
you want to take a deeper look at any of
11:52
them
11:52
but do realize that these critical
11:54
health and safety resources are also
11:56
some of the first things that go as the
11:57
nation’s infrastructure collapses
12:00
number nine no more disaster relief in
12:02
addition to the failure of
12:04
local fire police and health services
12:07
realize that our ninth thing to go
12:09
is disaster relief an economic downturn
12:11
or depression can turn deadly after any
12:13
natural disaster
12:15
federal relief and rescue sources may
12:17
not be available at all
12:18
or may not be able to get to you any
12:20
natural disaster
12:21
would result in a greater death toll and
12:24
would intensify the economic collapse
12:26
a hurricane hitting the east coast for
12:28
example in the absence of a federal
12:30
relief effort
12:31
and with the absence of local fire
12:32
medical and police services
12:34
could result in famine disease looting
12:37
and a mass migration of fling people
12:39
an earthquake could turn a population
12:41
desperate to survive
12:42
death tolls can skyrocket and your
12:44
personal security may be
12:45
left solely up to you when prepping
12:48
prepare for the obvious
12:49
probable disasters that occur in your
12:50
area normally but also prepare for the
12:52
possible disasters which could result
12:54
from a compounding of disasters
12:56
during an economic depression emergency
12:58
relief may not come
13:00
so make sure your supplies can sustain
13:02
you for as many weeks as possible
13:04
number 10 a new world recovery the final
13:07
thing that occurs after any nation’s
13:09
economy collapses
13:10
is an inevitable recovery all economies
13:13
are cyclical
13:14
what holds and retains value may change
13:16
as the circumstances change
13:18
but a new world does emerge while
13:20
governments may
13:21
change economies continue in one way or
13:23
another power
13:25
may change hands at the highest levels
13:27
whole systems or democracy can swiftly
13:29
become feudalistic societies or
13:31
authoritarian reigns
13:32
eventually some stability returns to a
13:34
region what that looks like
13:36
is impossible to know but if you prepare
13:38
for the immediate things which occur
13:39
when an economy collapses
13:41
your chances of riding out the storm and
13:43
surviving to a time of recovery
13:45
increases
13:46
likewise your value to the new society
13:48
increases according to what you’re able
13:50
to produce or maintain
13:51
if you are able to grow food people will
13:53
always need to eat
13:54
if you know how to hunt or forage people
13:57
will always need to eat to survive
13:59
even in the darkest days of our nation’s
14:01
collapse some form of recovery is in the
14:03
future
14:04
what that recovery looks like is out of
14:06
your control but making it to that
14:08
recovery is the essence of proper
14:09
prepping
14:10
after every economic collapse a recovery
14:13
occurs
14:14
stability does eventually return to a
14:16
region
14:17
what that new economy and world looks
14:19
like is impossible to know but if you
14:20
prepare for the immediate things which
14:22
occur when an economy collapses
14:24
your chances of riding out the storm and
14:25
surviving to a time of recovery
14:27
increases
14:28
even the strongest of nations can fail
14:31
even the most robust economies can sink
14:33
into deep and long-lasting economic
14:35
depressions
14:36
be prepared by knowingly prepping for
14:38
these 10 things which occur when a
14:39
nation’s economy collapses
14:41
at best you may only encounter one of
14:43
these as a problem
14:44
at worst you could suffer through all of
14:46
them and more
14:47
proper preparation will now carry you
14:49
through safely to an eventual recovery
