If the world monetary system colapses, what to do?

[Lancer]

To put it another way, after the trash was taken out, the trash would have to be taken out.

How do you see this differently notyoueither?

Dude!

I am in awe of a man who sees sexy females falling from the skies as a hassle.

We shoot all the trash if it comes to it.

We're simple people that way.

I fear you never got the logic of that, shall I explain it again?

I live to learn from a man who rejects hot chicks from the sky.

You should move here, Lancer.

When push comes to shove you could be good with a deer rifle. And you certainly have sense of community down.

No thanks -- and I mean that with respect any factual situation I could ever imagine

Not that I commonly expect rationality or insight from you, but do you have an example of some other group who have managed to run an advanced technological economy and do things like put people in space without using a market system?

I thought not.

If the market collapses for good, then there really isn't any other option.

Aggie, the Sovs ripped off every significant piece of technology they ever used. The Chinese are worse.

I hope, for the sake of the kittens, that you are not holding forth ML as the saviour of the great unwashed of the Western economies that are about to tank.

That would be rather humourous.

Well its really very sympull. Hot chicks fall from the shy, we've got that aspect down. Then they land, dust themselves off in all their hotness, and then what? I ask you!

That's utter rubbish. How on earth you have the chutzpah to post such bull**** is beyond me.

I thought guns to protect your property was sensible.

Of course, you'd have to have guns left that the nanny state hadn't taken away from you for your own protection...

Only the bad guys have access to guns here.

True. The Chinese at least buy some of the technology they use.

I've been pondering this question and the only thing to me that would be the ultimate result would be the global feudal government.

Initially there would be the usual riots, mass killing, military called in to restore order and then the military would take over and set itse;f up as the new government.

Some of you might say this couldn't happen, but history has a way of repeating itself.

Not to worry, it won't be anywhere near as bad as when the world planetary system collapses.

I call that BS.

The US ripped off far more and the Chinese basically bought their space program from the Russians.

Just a side note on the space programs, did anyone think about how the US and the USSR organized their space programs? The Soviets had several competing groups, not typical of a planned economy. And the US had a large monolithic government organization. I wonder what we can learn from the results.
