Worldwide economic collapse
Hitler was a shadow of the antichrist
He came to power with smooth talk <ref>
and a few people <ref>
the Jews could not buy or sell <ref>
The economy was such that it made it easy for him
The people were hungry
This is going to repeat
We will have a worldwide economic collapse
The beginning of sorrows <ref>
How much sorrow will the saints see?
The rapture will take the Church and saints out
then the antichrist will be revealed
There's a difference between crisis and collapse
When the economy collapses,
it will happen quickly,
because the surprise factor is a one of the likely causes of a potential collapse.
The signs of imminent failure are difficult for most people to see.
When the economy collapses,
{you will lose access to credit.}
{Banks will close. } Maybe not
In the past, a run on the bank would use up all available funds
Now, they may just print more money
It would produce hyperinflation
Demand will outstrip supply of food, gas, and other necessities.
water and electricity might no longer be available
An economic collapse will create global panic.
It will create not just inflation, but hyperinflation
modern days, economic collapse is one of the most likely disasters
that people all over the world must contend.
Even in an economic stronghold such as the United States,
the possibility of economic collapse looms large.
In fact, many experts believe that the current economic downturn
is just the beginning and that the severity of the covid depression is yet to be seen.
And considering that the fundamental problems behind this economy
still have not been fixed, they are probably right.
Kidnappings Increase
Countries that experience an economic collapse
typically see a spike in kidnappings as well.
Kidnapping a person of wealth and demanding a ransom
is one way for desperate people to acquire money
when no other means of acquiring money are available.
It is not only the wealthy that are at risk, though,
as desperate kidnappers will take anyone they can
in the hopes that someone will pay the ransom.
Pets Go Missing
Even if you can afford to continue feeding your pets during an economic collapse,
there is still no guarantee that they will be safe.
Few people have the skills or resources to hunt wild animals when food is scarce.
Domesticated animals, however, make for much easier targets.
If people eating dogs and cats in order to survive sounds far-fetched,
there are plenty of examples that prove otherwise.
For example, just look at Venezuela where people are hunting dogs, cats, and pigeons.
Water Quality Drops
Private citizens are not the only ones affected by an economic collapse.
State and local governments feel the strain of economic downturn as much as anyone.
When the funds simply are not available,
even some of the local government’s most important duties
such as ensuring access to clean drinking water are often neglected.
People Riot In The Streets
When people are desperate and angry,
they often start rioting, and these riots can quickly become dangerous
as people take advantage of the chaos to get away with all sorts of crimes
from robbery to vandalism to murder.
If caught up in a riot, it is essential to make your way to a less crowded area
or indoors as soon as possible.
Carjackings Become More Common
In desperate times, robbing a person’s car is typically safer than robbing a person’s home
since the individual being robbed is much less likely to be armed inside their vehicle
than they are inside their home.
One common tactic used by carjackers is to throw rocks, bricks,
or Molotov cocktails at the windshield of a moving car in order to get the driver to pull over.
you are in a dangerous area when this happens,
your best course is to just keep driving.
Stopping for this tactic, or any other tactic that carjackers use
(such as standing in the middle of the road to try to make you stop)
could prove incredibly dangerous
Hospitals Become Overcrowded
Due to factors such as no garbage pickups, unclean drinking water, the spread of disease,
inability to afford medications, and a spike in violent crimes,
people tend to visit hospitals much more frequently during an economic collapse.
This leads to hospitals becoming overcrowded
and unable to take care of everyone who walks through the door.
Oftentimes, people die while waiting for treatment that would have saved their lives.
Gasoline is Rationed
In the wake of an economic collapse,
going to the gas station to fill up may not be a possibility.
Gasoline will likely be rationed, if it is even available in your area.
Of course, without gasoline, escaping a dangerous location or situation becomes much more difficult.
If you depend on gasoline to run a generator after the power goes out,
not having gasoline could be an even bigger problem.
Banks Close
One of the first things people do when the economy collapses is rush to the bank
in order to withdraw all their funds.
One thing many people do not realize, though,
is that banks do not keep enough cash on hand to pay out anywhere close to the amount of money they owe.
When there is a run on the banks, banks simply close their doors,
leaving people unable to access the money that is rightfully theirs.
An event like this could lead to panic and a sudden uptick in crime.
Terrorist Attacks Become More Frequent
When the economy collapses, the country’s enemies will be left smelling blood in the water,
Emboldened by the country’s economic ruin, terrorists are likely to ramp up their attacks.
Gang Activity Increases
Left with few other options,
more and more people turn to criminal activity during an economic collapse.
In addition to desperation, another factor fueling gang activity during times of economic downturn
is the fact that gangs know the city will have fewer resources available to combat their activities.
Of course, with increased gang activity comes increased danger in the streets
as rival gangs fight for control of territory in a time when making money is more important than ever.
Interstate Trucking Halts
Factors such as an oil embargo or a massive increase in robberies
could grind interstate trucking to a halt in the event of an economic collapse.
Unable to rely on trucks for transportation,
stores would quickly run out of food and other essential supplies,
leaving people who do not have supplies of their own stored up with few options for survival.
Martial Law is Enacted
In an attempt to curb some of the violence and chaos that ensues after an economic collapse,
the government will likely enact martial law
and turn over the governance of the people to the police and military.
In some ways, this could make life safer in extremely desperate times
In other ways, though, it would rob you of your most fundamental rights
and create a power-grab that the government may never come back from.
People Eat Almost Anything To Survive
Imagine being so hungry that you resort to eating a dead rat you found in the trash.
This sort of thing is happening in Venezuela right now.
They are even slaughtering zoo animals for food.
If it happened there, it can happen here.
what will bad guys will do after the collapse.
gangs of looters ransacking one neighborhood after another,
but we do not hear much about gangs of good guys keeping the peace.
That is what a sheepdog gang is:
a group of good guys with guns who will not tolerate lawlessness.
there are many types of sheepdog gangs that will form.
It depends on the type of people and part of the country where it happens.
I do not think you can count on any of those groups.
A lot of those groups will go every man, (family) for himself
I do not know if we can really say who will be the sheepdogs
and who will be the wolves in that kind of situation.
I imagine many of those groups could wind up being just as dangerous as the looters.
The analogy of wolves and sheepdogs is a good one
because wolves and dogs are not all that different,
and a sheepdog today could be a wilddog tommorow.
