Meet with others in your town. Determine THEY are your problem. And make a list of all the essential and otherwise enjoyed goods and services THEY monopolize. Then pass the hat and start those small businesses and only buy/trade from each other. THEY will crash all right, BUT YOU WON'T.
There is still time to get it. In a bad system, we pool up cooperatively and form our own system within it, until our empowerment makes their system vanish.
Oh Gee, I forgot why. It takes cooperation and meeting up with others and sharing and getting things going as a family. Hmmm......Guess everyone would rather the whole world goes to hell and back again and billions perish as lone wolves before they ever really get a thing!

Reading through all of those mini reports and watching the Bob Chapman video, I come to a slightly different conclusion on things.
What is becoming crystal clear is the extent to which the "bankster" moniker has been well deserved. The need to end that tyranny is at hand.
It ain't going to be easy or pleasant, but it will be necessary. The collapse of the economic system will be a good thing. We should not bemoan the destruction of that evil system.
Some of the reports spoke of a rebirth in "American" ingenuity and entrepreneurial spirit to come up with a new and legitimate way of not only "surviving" but improving the way we live our lives.
We hate the current system; yet we fear its demise. We shouldn't. It has to to be torn apart. The banksters need to go down so the rest of us can begin to have a life.
And that means starting a civil war or what exactly? The entire WARSAW PACT turned from communism to capitalism in just a few years, yet americans are too immature to handle change? Is that what this is all about?

Why would they collapse the system? What is the point?

I was shocked to see the prices that these dealers are charging for gold coins. They are touting their inflated priced coins as an investment when the collectible value is probably not or never will be much higher than the actually weight value. When the gold market plummets, which it will eventually, a lot of people are going to be stuck with shiny discs of gold metal that are worth only a small fraction of what they paid.
