excuse me but your plan sounds very simple.
It wasnt a plan, though. It was just a thought that I would simply explore, and type out.
However adversity can teach cooperation, and give insight into past mistakes. Does it always? No. But I only said it was a chance, and I explained why
I thought it was necessary for that chance to be taken (however none of us have any control if a collapse ever will happen).

Perhaps. Or it could be the defining moment of mankind, where differences are put aside and cooperation is learned.

what does that tell you?
Im not sure... but my initial response would be that you are either simply indifferent, or complacent, or both.
Both of which I already commented about being things that people need to wake up from, or nothing is going to change.
A collapse would spur change; WHAT change, Im not sure, however, ironically, *I* seem to be the one looking on the bright side about all this, while
some of those opposing my point of view are seemingly expressing an absolute and total LACK of faith that humanity is anything other than a primitive
ape placated with cloths and cars and TVs, and if those were taken away, the true character of the human would be hideous to behold.
Im not sure you all are so wrong in that assumption. However, like I said in a previous post, a financial collapse would be a true test of the human
character, and would really define the content of humanity's collective soul.
I would go into such an event with the intent on exposing the best in humanity, and being the change I wanted to see in the world. Most seem resigned
that only the very worst would come out.
