I get a bit of a chuckle out of the I'll head for the hills types. What are you going to do when you get to the hills? Do you have seeds to plant to sustain yourself? Do you have food to eat for the two or more years it will take to clear land and harvest a crop? Do you have tools to clear the land that will be required to plant those crops or are you planning on getting into a deathmatch with the farming community to get to already arable land and equipment. Unfortunately I as well live in a city that is also surrounded by bridges and if there was some sort of a major cataclysm I'd likely be deader than Elvis.

The Fusel Shack sits next to a large tropical swamp and I'm not opposed to eating gators and pythons :p

Actually, there is an interesting book about living through hyperinflation as a city/suburb dweller. It is entitled "Surviving the Economic Collapse" and was written by Fernando Aguirre, an Argentine who has experienced it firsthand. The world won't come to an end, but you have to be able to adapt, and many of his suggestions seem sensible.

Or just watch the news and see how they manage in Venezuela right now.

>>>>>> Interesting that you mention Argentina. Because that's exactly where US is headed. That is an excellent case study.
