I have read about what Selco went through with the Balkan War of the 1990s http://shtfschool.com/ ). He is a good source of what if scenarios. However, I do not see the US going through a civil war or any type of internal conflict which is not already going on. Then there is Ferfal (http://ferfal.blogspot.com/ ) who lived through the collapse in Argentina around 2001. All good locations for you are looking for ideas on different scenarios This does not mean something like this cannot happen on a limited basis such as a major earthquake or hurricane. I just think as people who prepare can learn by what is going on in other countries. These articles are from the main new organizations not one of the conspiracy organizations. The important thing is this is current, its going on now.

If you take a look at Venezuela here you had a wealthy country fall into poverty due to policies and out right theft, $11 Billion over a ten-year period. The thing which amazes me is you would think $11 billion would be easy to track if you wanted to look for it, but I don’t think anyone is….

In this second article they talk about the borders being closed, keeping anyone from leaving the country. In this second article if you watch the video there are a lot of people who are buying just toilet paper. One thing I thought was interesting was one guy, who is a business owner, flew to the US to visit his relatives in NY and on the way stops at Disney Land, WTF. Then it goes on to say his son had been sick and needed penicillin but he could not find it in any of the pharmacies. It wasn’t until a friend gave him some that his son got well. Now he is stocking up, I would think I would have forgone my trip to Disney Land.
