Truckers strike

[ians]

People starving to death, but billions are spend on arms and aids "research". Why not use the money to feed the starving kids and keep them alive.

As the collapse intensifies the looting and marauding, I mean liberating and freeing capitalist goods for populist consumption will mean a more equitable distribution of wealth. When everyone is poor everyone is equal.

Best cities to live during times like this is slow inter-mediation ergo very autarchic(the wiki definition is not that great it, I am using it as self-sufficiency)(autarchy) cities will do better. By autarchic I mean those cities near food production and value added aspects. Ergo cities where there is lots of food production and small machinery chops in the near vicity with close communal togetherness and low transportation necessary for it to function. Basically agrarian/value add centers.

The biggest problem I see is if water infrastructure gives way in a very densely populated part of country gives way and nobody cares to fix it. Then you will get complete clusterf##k since the entire mountain of population will transform into roving nomads seeking basic necessities. Never quiet got this far in Russia because water infrastructure is fairly widespread(bad or not it works), but in countries like Egypt if a neighborhood water gets shut off you get the point.

I could totally see infrastructure failure be the next wave. Ergo think Eskom cuts capacity to certain portions of geography and it accidentally cuts off power to water utilities that have catastrophic failure due to lack of maintenance in their backup generators and then due to that you get complete breakage down the chain. For example the water treatment backflow stops working and contaminates the entire water supply up and down the chain for a few weeks.

(AM I just the most positive person ever or what)
