Oh no, a noob! Everything he says is stupid and/or a lie! get him!
give me a break.
anyway.... OP, to answer your question...
I'm not sure I'd put them in any order but I honestly believe that the three most likely things to happen to bring down society would be financial meltdown, EMP attack, and global pandemic.
I'm not going to go into a long, drawn out explanation of why I worry about these things because
A: it's been done 10,000 times
and
B: nobody will actually read it anyway, unless they are looking for something to rip me apart over
I assume at one time you only had 8 post. Just asking a question, no evil intent behind it:xeye: As for who I am, just a retired papa asking what I thought was a harmless question.
I think that what Cuppycake said was pretty close. I think that perhaps a natural disaster would be more likely then a global pandemic, however its very unlikely it would effect the whole nation.
The key is not to worry about a specific event as much as it is to prepare for the aftermath. Which for almost all situations will be very similar requirements. Food/water, shelter, security. Everything else is a luxury!
I've always considered a global pandemic a natural disaster, (not to be splitting hairs). But I'm afraid of the upcoming solar max (communications breakdown and grid failure), followed by a major earthquake, then maybe a major flu outbreak. YIKES!
I agree whole heartedly with your comment about the importance of general prep.
It is harmless. As with any forum you have your royalty that act a little whacko...
The #1 Threat because the possibility of it happening is basically assured is financial meltdown. I think the world will go to war to try to counter the economic meltdown because it will be worldwide. Lastly I believe the infrastructure will collapse because of a lack of basic needs for the public.
Cuppycake.......... Thanks for your reply. Neo31..........Wasn't trying to start an argument with anyone, just asking a question. Maybe I should just continue to observe and not speak. Some folks sure are touchy.
Top 3, Elenin, Solar emp (total global grid failure), WW3. All 3 are in the news.
I suppose a 4th would be incompetent leadership, economic collapse is already happening thanks to a few manipulative families (Rockefellers and the Federal Reserve).
Monsanto = food shortage! If Monsanto stopped making seeds for WHATEVER reason the US food supply would dry up in the snap of the fingers!
To the comments of WW3 going on right now that is correct. They just cover it in a way on the news that makes it look like it is not! Gotta love the media!
#1 people not believing that the financial problems this country faces are serious
#2 the republican party thinking that they can win with a recycled neo-con like Romney
#3 increasing cyber attacks of banks, government.
1. Home grown terrorists. These people are going to be hard to identify.
2. The countries financial problems. Very broad, but includes, foreign aid, welfare and out of control spending on stupid stuff.
3. Increasingly strange weather patterns. People are getting caught off guard with weather they don't see in their part of the country. This can also disrupt the food supply to a point where the country can not recover.
Don't let people get to you --a few on here look to pick on newbies.
1. Financial collapse
2. Terrorist attack with nuclear weapons
3. either an EMP or a pandemic
Thanks everyone for your response. Again,with all the bad stuff happening in the world today I was just curious as to your thoughts. Wish everyone and your families well.
1. Liberals
2. The entitlement culture
3. Multi-culturalism
