It’s ok to mourn the crumbling empire, stock up on guns and ammo. It will be needed.

Debt has to be the single greatest threat to the empire at this point.
You can pay it down with hard assets like gold (lol) or you can fire up the presses and devalue the currency.
That will spur unrest and unexpected consequences for years to come unless some black swan reset like WWII comes along.
I know, I know, Tellafriend. At this point a World War doesn’t technically qualify as a black swan anymore - it was the only example I could think of atm.
they will cut ssri to many and medicare. they will have to cut military somehow. they will print until they run out of ink. they could also start unloading assets like land and oil rights. might make a decent dent.
best bet is the printers go brrrrrrrr. it's the easiest in the very short term. long term, it's rome.
debt is the biggest problem, you are correct. but the culture crumbling is coinciding nicely with it. should make for a lot of despair.
has anyone else seen this? i mean, wtf?
