I don't want to be a downer on this. Hunger can be overpowering. ...
Do we have a "plan B?"
They aren't going to be able to pull a holodomor type event here. Stalin had to get the guns first.. Do you think American farmers will allow their farms to be taken and collectivized if they are still armed?
Feeding a family form the land is relatively easy. Feeding a city is hard.
This is entirely a Country vs City Civil war. They can freeze bank accounts and do all manner of stupid to FORCE people into finding different networks and using different methods.. and that just means when the war starts they can only cause less pain, not more.
Any freedom loving person still living in a Liberal city is an idiot. Your Plan B is controlling your own water supply (well) , your own food supply (livestock/farming/aquaponics) , power supply ( generator/solar) and so forth. You should be doing this anyway because a financial collapse of the dollar is inevitable - no matter what.
I can't use your bank anymore? Fine. I will use bit coin. How do you plan to stop me? You will cut off my internet? Oh wait, its sort of designed so I can't be cut off, isn't it - even if I have to use Dial-up to a foreign modem.
And they sanction my employer? It will just ensure that most of us start working off the books in the bitcoin network. After all, employers aren't supposed to hire illegals either, but somehow they are employed. But you are right, you might have to give up some of your comfy suburban lifestyle to fight for freedom.
But if I am unemployed? What will stop me from going to a food bank or collecting welfare from the very system they want to deny me from?
If one can't work and are made a persona-non-grata.. one will have a lot of time to leave fake packages around town and engage in other acts of sabotage, won't one?
Bottom line, I will be dead in a shooting war LONG before I am dead of starvation.
