TS has HTF

[bigpaul]

Yep, "Eventually you run out of other people's money!"

Who was it that said that anyway?

What do you propose be done about the insisted on super-disaster at the personal and individual level BP?

If you want to propose a hypothetical problem with only disaster as an accepted outcome how about proposing a hypothetical solution each person can implement in their own lives.

Please keep I realistic and not some plot of ruling the world from a hovel in Devon!

oh dear, Monty's swollowed a dictionary again. I have no intention of ruling the world...that intention never entered my mind..in fact much the opposite. I just wondered WTSHTF and I mean a societal collapse type event just how others saw it unfolding and in what timescale that is all. I don't think there would be a solution to that, I think we just do what we can in our own way.

without cheap imports there would be a 75% die off as we(the UK) can only feed 16million people from the available land in this country, possibly less if we didn't have intensive farming methods, or any oil, or pesticides or fertilisers, we would have to revert to old time methods of farming pre the industrial revolution... if anyone watched "The Green Valley" this is the sort of subsistence farming/lifestyle I am talking about.
