hunger crisis?? WTF!
we go from a 'national obesity crisis' to 'hunger crisis' after a day without food???
It is highly probable that we'll have both food shortage and currency crisis - combined. I rarely hear this from the "experts".
Currency devaluation will turn money into rubble... but even if you have money, it will be hard to buy food, because there will be less companies able to produce it and, people will hoard.
It's what's going on in Venezuela. It's been 6 years and they're still in it: money is worth less than the paper it's printed on, but food is scarce anyway.
There are 3 other major problems in collapsed societies, which few people mention:
- while having little or no money at all, you will still be required to pay your taxes
- public safety: theft, robberies, assault
- it will be difficult to travel from city to city because it will be more expensive, there will be road blocks and public safety will be poor
- scarcity of medicine
Where I live, pharmacies have run out of Vitamin D, which is so vital for a well-functioning immune system. Of course, everyone is hoarding it.
Paracetamol is another rare asset.
